Why Get Professional Pest Control Year Round?

Did you know there is an entire ecosystem of pests and animals living around your home? Mosquitoes will enter your yard looking for their next meal, and spiders will come next to feast on the mosquitoes. Wasps may build a nest near their food sources which are the spiders, and mice and rats may enter to eat the wasps. It is a vicious cycle, both for the pests that are prey and for homeowners that feel as though their home is no longer a safe haven.

The full network of pests that will invade a home and yard is vast and complex. It is also incredibly challenging for home and business owners to manage on their own. It is for this reason, and so many more, that year round pest control is essential, particularly in Texas.

Seasonality

Texas may have beautiful climate all year long, but there are certainly still different seasons in the state, particularly when it comes to pests. The same pests you deal with in the summer will not be the same ones that cause problems in the winter. For example, while you may have a problem with wasps in your yard in the summer, mice control may become more necessary during the winter months, when these critters are more likely to head inside. Knowing which pests are going to be a problem for a certain period of time is one of the most important steps in pest control.

A Continual Effort

While temperatures do fluctuate in Texas, and sometimes it can even become quite cold, pests are still an ongoing problem in the state throughout the year. If you only focus on pest control during the summer months, but then let the fall and winter go by without any effort, you may be met with a big surprise the next time you have a technician in. That surprise will also be an unpleasant one, as you may find that termites have damaged your home, or that a spider infestation has developed in the house. A pest control technician will set up the appropriate pest barriers and perform regular inspections in a continual effort to ensure that your home remains pest-free, all year round.

Being Proactive

Unfortunately, many people only start speaking to a Texas pest control company once they have already discovered a problem. By that time, termites could have caused massive damage to a home, people may have been sleeping with bed bugs for months, and cockroaches could have already caused health problems for those in the home. This is what happens when people wait to call a pest control company, but many people simply do not know that taking action before that time could have saved them a great deal of headaches in the end.

If you embark on year round pest control, a technician will catch these issues right away, and will sometimes have solutions for them before a problem even starts. You will never have to deal with the aftermath of an infestation, because you have been proactive and not reactive.

A Comprehensive Solution

You may know that you have a mice problem. However, you may not have known that you also have a tick problem due to the infestation of mice. Did you know that a mouse may have up to 100 ticks on its body? When it enters your home or your yard, those ticks come with it, and they could pose a real risk to you and your family. Ticks carry many diseases, including Lyme disease, which has very harmful effects on humans and the pets they love.

When you have a pest control technician like Stride Pest Control checking your property regularly, they will identify and deal with all the problems in your home or yard. A technician will know what to look for, the problems many different types of pests bring with them, and treat all of them. While you may call a pest control company for help with a mice infestation, or any other type of problem, you may be surprised to find that they help you with many more.

Safety Solutions

Pests are annoying and they are an inconvenience. Unfortunately, they are also much more than that. While ticks carry Lyme disease, mosquitoes can carry a number of diseases, including West Nile virus, and rodents and mice can also transmit a number of diseases to humans. When you use a year round pest control service, you can make sure you and your family are not exposed to these diseases and dangers during every season.

A professional pest control service will also know how to apply different solutions safely. Sometimes, a pest problem requires just one solution while other times, a mixture of solutions can take care of many different types of pests at once. Homeowners do not always know which solutions are safe, or how to combine solutions safely, so it is always best to leave this to the experts.

Peace of Mind

You do not only want to know that your home is free of pests during the summer. You want the peace of mind knowing your space is pest free every month of the year! That is exactly what year round pest control service will provide. The above benefits are all great, but they all also come down to one thing. When you have year round pest control, you have peace of mind knowing that your home is protected every day, no matter the season and no matter the weather.
