Say Goodbye to Pests: Understanding When to Call in the Pros

March 12, 20252 min read

Pest infestation is a serious issue in Burnaby. Homeowners and businesses often deal with pests like ants, wasps, rodents, spiders, and cockroaches. If you neglect to remove the pests, it can be harmful to your health and property. That’s why, if you have no time to remove them, hire professionals to make your property pest-free.

How to Detect a Pest Infestation in Your Home

Here are some signs that help you confirm that there is a pest infestation in your home:

  • Droppings: Pests like rodents and cockroaches often leave their droppings here and there, helping you understand they have invaded your home.

  • Visible Pests: If you notice wasps flying near your windows and sometimes in your rooms, it is a clear sign that they have made a nest near your home.

  • Chewed Papers: If you notice chewed pages in your books or damaged papers, it is a sign that indicates pesky silverfish.

  • Gnaw Marks: Rodents are infamous for damaging properties. Gnaw marks on the walls are a clear sign that indicates rodent infestation in your home.

DIY Methods to Keep Pest Away from Your Home

  • Natural Oils: You can apply peppermint oils to the entry points to deter pests like spiders and mice. Spraying eucalyptus oil in your home can help you remove flies, gnats, and ants.

  • Food-Based Solutions: You can use a mix of apple cider vinegar with water to safeguard your home from ant infestation.

  • Hygiene Practices: Maintaining the cleanliness of your living spaces also helps you prevent pest infestation.

  • Physical Barriers: Sealing the entry points with physical barriers can help you reduce the chances of pest infestation in your home.
