Tip of the Month

 

Start with the outside - your yard, garden and other structures.  Are they neat and clean? Trash and weeds cleaned up?  Shrubbery properly trimmed?  Firewood stored off of the ground and away from the buildings?  Next, carefully examine the exterior of the house.  Caulk, caulk and then do some more caulking.  Keep in mind that a mouse can enter any opening through which you can poke a lead pencil.  Young rats can enter any opening the diameter of a 25¢ coin.

If you live or operate a business in a neighborhood with prevalent rodent problems, out-of-door baiting may be necessary.  If that is the case, remember that bait placements should only be made in sealed and securely anchored bait stations.  Please understand that a brick on top of the bait station is not a secure placement. In any situation you are better off calling Augustine Exterminators, Inc.  Remember, pest exclusion goes hand in hand with energy savings.  Caulking may not be free, but it will certainly beat outrageous heating bills.  Pest exclusion may not qualify for a tax rebate, but you may well find a dividend in your next utility bill.
