Nashville Pest Control Pros Offer Summer Pest Prevention Tips

(PRWEB) June 12, 2014

As a Nashville pest control expert, the professionals at All-American Pest Control make it clear they want to help Nashville residents maintain a pest free home this summer. "Finding pests in the home during the summer is more than just a nuisance, says Erin Richardson, President of All-American Pest Control. Many infestations can translate into health issues or even property damages which is why professional pest control services are always recommended."

Consider the following summer pest prevention tips from All-American Pest Control:

Check the outside perimeter of your house for any shrubs or tree limbs that may be touching the sides of the house or hanging down over the roof. This allows easy access for pests to enter your home. Trim or cut back as needed.

Check for any low spots in your yard that stay moist or allow standing water and fill in, sloping away from foundation. Also, check for any amount of standing water in pans or containers, as this is an attractant to mosquitoes and even termites. Mosquitoes are prone to carrying diseases and can be a detriment to your health. Termites are a physical threat to the condition of the structure of your home.

Clean all around your property and make sure that any pile of leaves and wood debris are gathered up and removed. This type of debris will attract ants, termites, spiders and other pests.

Use motion sensor lights around your property. Insects are attracted to exterior lighting and lights left on for extended periods of time will attract insects to your door. A motion sensor only turns on when you are going in or out of your home and is off the rest of the time, reducing the chances of insects coming in.
