6 Tips for a Pest-Free Home This Winter | Nashville Christian Family magazine - February 2025 issue

As temperatures drop, pests like rodents, cockroaches, spiders, and wildlife are looking for a warm place to bundle up. Don’t let it be your home! Stay cozy and pest-free with these cold-weather tips:

  1. Seal Up Entry Points: Check for cracks and gaps around doors, windows, and foundations. Even the smallest openings can invite unwanted pests inside.
  2. Store Food Properly: Keep pantry items in airtight containers and clean up crumbs to eliminate potential food sources.
  3. Keep Trash Secure: Use sealed garbage cans and take out the trash regularly to avoid attracting pests.
  4. Clear Outdoor Clutter: Firewood, leaves, and debris near your home can provide shelter for pests looking to move indoors.
  5. Eliminate Moisture Sources: Fix any leaking pipes or clogged drains to prevent attracting rodents and insects.
  6. Trim Trees and Shrubs: Keep vegetation trimmed back from your home to prevent pests from gaining easy access.

Following these tips can help you prevent pests from turning your home into a cozy retreat. However, if you find yourself with uninvited guests, the experts at Waynes Pest Control can provide effective solutions to keep your home safe this winter.
