Seal Entry Points: Inspect your home for gaps and cracks in walls, windows, and doors. Use caulk or weather stripping to seal these entry points.

Maintain Cleanliness: Keep your home tidy by regularly cleaning up food spills, storing food in airtight containers, and taking out the trash frequently.

Eliminate Standing Water: Check for areas with standing water, such as clogged gutters or plant saucers, and eliminate them to reduce mosquito breeding grounds.

Store Firewood Properly: Keep firewood stacked away from your home and at least 18 inches off the ground to deter pests like termites.

Regular Landscaping Maintenance: Trim shrubs and trees to prevent them from touching your home, which can provide pathways for pests.

Inspect Packages and Groceries: Before bringing items into your home, inspect them for any signs of pests, especially if they are second-hand or from outdoor sources.

Schedule Regular Pest Control: Consider hiring a professional pest control service for regular inspections and treatments to keep pests at bay.
