While it may be difficult to believe in the midst of snow and ice, spring really is just around the corner, and now is the perfect time to plan your spring clean-up for both the inside and outside of your home. And since cleaning isn’t the most loved or exciting activity for most people, you might as well get the most bang for your buck! This is why the experts at All-American Pest Control want to provide you with some indoor and outdoor spring cleaning tips that will not only spruce up your home but keep spring pests away as well!

Outdoor spring cleaning tips include:

  • Removing leaves, sticks, and other debris that may have fallen or blown into your yard over the winter.

  • Trimming back trees, shrubs, and other landscaping that has overgrown near your home. Pests like to hide in overgrown landscaping and use their branches to gain access to your home.

  • Cutting your grass back.

  • Cleaning out gutters and removing any debris, clogs, or animal nests.

  • Removing or fixing areas of standing water.

  • Checking your home’s roof, roof line and foundation for cracks or gaps-make any necessary repairs.

Indoor spring cleaning tips include:

  • While washing your home’s windows, inspect the screens for holes or tears. Repair or replace any that are not intact.

  • Caulk any gaps that are found around your home’s exterior windows and doors.

  • Make sure that door sweeps are installed on all exterior doors.

  • De-clutter storage areas. Get rid of any stacks of magazines, newspapers, and cardboard boxes that aren’t needed. Along with giving you more space in your home, de-cluttering gives pests less places to hide and nest within your home.

  • Deep clean your kitchen. Move large kitchen appliances and clean up any crumbs or spills behind them; go through your cabinets and pantry and clean the shelves and remove any out of date items.

  • Move furniture, and vacuum and clean behind and underneath of those areas. Dark, secluded areas behind and underneath of furniture are areas in your home that pests like to hide in.

Along with doing a good spring clean to both the inside and outside of your home, implementing a home pest control program will greatly reduce your chances of spring pests thinking that your property is going to be their new home. Stinging insects, mosquitoes, ants and termites can all be very invasive, frustrating and damaging if given the chance to invade your property. And let’s face it, once the warm weather comes back around this spring, the last thing you will want to worry about is battling pests, so instead, leave that up to us!
