What Attracts Pests to San Antonio Homes?
Several of the basic needs that attract pests are essential to the human occupants as well. In colder weather, for example, pests may intrude the premises in search of warm shelter, and vice versa. During a San Antonio regional drought, pests may enter your home in search of moisture. Rest assured that a residential pest control plan from Aptive Environmental includes multiple treatments to protect your home throughout the year.
Composting Tips for Eco-Friendly Pest Control
For eco-friendly pest control, keep animal products out of your compost bin. Meat is one of the most enticing snares for rodents and pests. Homeowners should also avoid composting any bones, dairy products, oils, and fatty foods.
Composting Tips for Eco-Friendly Pest Control (Cont'd)
To deter pests from finding your compost bin, cover any exposed food with a layer of dry leaves and soil. This helps to suppress the smell of food and other organic materials that may entice rodents and pests. Another way for composters to enact eco-friendly pest control is to surround the collections with bricks, rocks, wire, and other obstacles to deter rodents.
Which pests SHOULD be present in your compost bin?
Insects such as pill bugs and slugs help to aerate and add natural fertilizer to your compost pile. However, even these helpful pests can wander over to your fruit or vegetable garden. Other pests such as wasps, hornets, fruit flies, earwigs, and spiders are an immediate cause for pest control services. Contact Aptive Environmental San Antonio to discuss an pest control plan that’s right for your family and for the fruits of your labor.
