The Mice are Coming!
The Changing Seasons: Preparing for Autumn Pests
As we bid farewell to summer, nature’s abrupt transition brings new challenges for homeowners. This year’s sudden shift from spring to summer significantly impacted the insect world, and we can expect a similar phenomenon as we move into autumn.
The Impact on Pest Populations
- Spring to Summer: Sharp increase in pest populations
- Summer to Autumn: Anticipated abrupt decrease outdoors, coupled with increased incursions into homes
Protecting Your Home
To safeguard against autumn’s temperature fluctuations and resulting pest invasions, consider Barrier Pest Control’s “Quarterly Pest Control” Plan.
Spotlight on Mice: A Persistent Autumn Pest
Unlike insects and spiders, mice remain active year-round, seeking shelter, warmth, and food within our homes and businesses. While interior mouse treatments are covered under the standard Quarterly Pest Control Plan, additional measures can enhance prevention:
Exterior Baiting Program
- Additional cost for station(s) around the home
- Controls outdoor mouse populations
- Reduces likelihood of home invasions
Exclusion Service
- Technician seals small access points
- Prevents mice from entering the home
- Note: Not all entry points can be sealed
Combined Approach (Recommended)
- Installation of bait stations
- Completion of exclusion service
- Provides optimal protection against mouse invasions
