As the warmer weather begins in Phoenix, AZ, most residents are thinking about what they can do to prevent bugs from coming into their homes. Fortunately, there are many ways you can prepare and keep your home safe. The tips below can help get you started, although our team at ACTION Termite Control is always here to assist.

1. Clean Up Outside

Do you have trees that have grown considerably since last summer? Or bushes and plants that are bigger than ever? If so, it’s important to clean them up before the weather heats up. This will minimize the risk of bugs coming into your home, including ants and termites. Cleaning up debris will also reduce the risk of pests coming onto your roof throughout the year.

2. Remove Water Sources

Standing water in buckets or birdbaths that are placed too close to your house can attract a wide variety of pests into your home. Removing standing water and moving bird baths farther away can benefit your home and won’t take much effort.

3. Spray

At ACTION Termite & Pest Control, we always recommend to have your home’s exterior regularly sprayed by one of our experts before the weather warms up. This will further help minimize the chance of bugs from coming in, even when the temperatures begin to soar. We can help you with just about any bugs you’re dealing with thanks to our custom pest service in Phoenix, AZ.

4. Seal Windows and Doors

If you feel a draft around your windows or doors, then you can bet that bugs will be able to get in when it warms up. Fortunately, a little bit of caulk can easily solve this problem. New weather stripping along doors can also help and make it difficult for bugs and other pests to get inside.

5. Clean up Trash and Crumbs

Crumbs and trash that are outside or inside must be cleaned up so bugs aren’t attracted into your home. Vacuuming inside regularly and sweeping outside can make a huge difference in bug exposure in your home.
