Move scrap wood and firewood 10 feet away from your home. When possible use termite-resistant materials (these include redwood, cedar, and juniper).

2. Fix Leaks!

Leaky pipes and excess moisture keep bugs and other pests plenty hydrated.

3. Eliminate Water

Divert pooling water from your foundation and other outdoor areas.

4. Yard Maintenance

Keep wood/siding from touching the ground. Trim back overgrowth of plants and grass.
