Prevent a Rodent Infestation with Cleaning and Storage


Rodents in homes are often there because of access to food and water as well as a warm place to call home. Clean up any sitting water or areas where water may pool. Make sure you clean up food preparation areas after you use them. Store your food in airtight plastic containers. Rodents have strong teeth and can easily chew through paper or cardboard to get at baking ingredients, snacks, cookies – you name it. Make sure you secure pet food as well. A hard plastic bin that snaps shut is a good choice for rodent prevention here. And take your trash out regularly. If you think you have a problem with rodents, call Slug A Bug today at 321-259-7844 to schedule a free evaluation. https://goo.gl/x3SUZU

How Does Spider Prevention Work?


The most effective way of controlling spiders in your home is by controlling their food sources. Spiders aren't in your home because they eat your crumbs, they are there to eat other pests in your home. You may get fruit flies, ants, small moths, and any number of other bugs that feed on crumbs, spills, etc. Clean up food prep areas, store food well, lid your trash and take it out regularly, and form other good cleaning habits that limit the amount of food there is for insects. If there are fewer of these pests, there is less for spiders to feed on. Your home is an ecosystem – the more prey there is, the more predators (like spiders and centipedes) will make it their hunting ground. There are more solutions as  well for spider control and Slug-A-Bug will help! Call us today at 321-259-7844 for a free evaluation. https://goo.gl/BnLWl8

Steps to Keep Ants Out


Ants are so small they can make it through the tiniest cracks or  gaps in your foundation. Locate and seal any visible cracks in the foundation, gaps under doors and around windows, and small accesses where pipes and wires come into the home. Wipe up crumbs after food prep. Food storage is important too. Look at your pantry and cupboards. Are foods stored in airtight containers? Ants will find their way into cookies, crackers, and junk food.

The Best Lawn Grubs Prevention is Good Lawn Care


Grubs prevention starts with effective lawn care. Keeping a thick lawn with healthy grass deters grubs. Like many pests, they tend to focus on areas that are already unhealthy or damaged. When you have a healthy lawn they will often look elsewhere. If you have lawn grubs, the best solution is a lawn care service with experience in assessing different lawn care and pest control needs. Call the experts for a free evaluation at Slug-A-Bug today at 321-259-7844.  https://goo.gl/YB8wRw
