Fall, with its cool temperature, is a perfect time of the year to tackle your home maintenance tasks. And because this change of season also indicates the need for small critters to find a safe haven from the cold weather, this would also mean the need to pest-proof your home. Below are some tips from National Pest Management Association on how to do just that.
– Inspect your home’s exterior and seal any cracks and crevices with silicone caulk.
– Fill larger gaps and holes inside your home with pieces of steel wool.
– Screen openings to chimneys and attic vents.
– Make sure to keep your attics, crawl spaces and basements well ventilated.
