How to Prevent Ants, Roach and Bed Bug Infestations


How does the Outdoors get inside the house;
COLD  air, Hot air,Rain and the Wind, imagine if that was all that got in?
Perhaps those 10, 20 or 30 year old windows do not close as well as they used to. The Front door threshold  no longer stops the leaves or the Roaches, the Grout around  the Tub is Worn away and the Ants  are crawling in. Birds and Rodents are entering through the attic screen and the Soffit Vent.
Ever notice wasps and other flying bugs inspecting your house? They are looking
for warm accommodations for the upcoming winter season.
Caulk and foam can serve as the first line of defense by sealing gaps and cracks around a home, helping to prevent pests from entering. Each can be used alone as a proactive and insecticide-free approach or in conjunction with bug sprays if bugs have already penetrated the home.
The best way to keep pests from infesting your home is to keep them out in the first place.  Eliminating their entry points by sealing up all cracks, crevices, holes, and gaps on the exterior of the home will help improve the chances that your home will remain pest free throughout the fall, winter, and springtime seasons. Insects come in all different sizes and therefore can fit into tiny deficiencies in a building.  Caulk in an easy and inexpensive way to keep insects and pests out of your home.  Here are a few caulking tips…
Check around corners, edges, doors and windows and lighting fixtures. Check every inch around anything that attaches to or pokes out of the house. Take it slow and caulk every little hole or crack.
• Using caulk around window frames will not only keep the temperature of your home regulated, it will keep unwanted insects out.
• Use caulk to seal joints. • Clear silicone caulk is known for its flexibility and is recommended for areas that will not be painted.
• Caulk can be used to patch small cracks in foundations and siding.
• Use caulk around air intakes, exposed plumbing pipes, venting pipes, sky lights, and exhaust grills.
