No one wants any sort of pest lurking around their home. Pests are annoying and have the potential to make us ill. Fortunately, professional pest control services are great at helping you manage the pest presence in your home. It’s easy to understand why you need it during warm months when pests are more visible. But what about during the winter? As it turns out, winter pest control matters too.

Here at Proterra Pest Control, we use pheromone traps to trap and remove pests from your home. Once the traps are set, they need to be monitored and checked regularly. At first, they’ll need to be checked twice a week. Later, the frequency with which the pheromone traps should be checked can be reduced to once a week. The results of the traps should be recorded and the pests removed. That can be a lot for some homeowners. Fortunately, you can count on Proterra Pest Control to monitor your pheromone traps during the winter months.

Just because you can’t see pests doesn’t mean that they aren’t there. You just may need to watch more closely for signs of pest presence. Pests may be hiding in places like your walls, crawlspaces, and roof. They like to stay warm, just like you do, and your home is the perfect shelter with plenty of food, water, and warmth. Winter pest control allows you to address those present pest problems.

If you want to set yourself up for pest control success when the weather warms again, winter pest control is a must. Pests that choose your home to overwinter may also use your home as a place to breed. Taking advantage of professional pest control services during the winter allows you to target them during this time, making it possible to reduce their numbers both now and when the weather warms again.

Just because many pests don’t tend to be quite as active during the colder winter months doesn’t mean that you can’t still benefit from winter pest control. In fact, the truth is that you can benefit just as much from professional pest control services during the winter months as you can during any other season. You just might not notice the payoff until things warm up again.
