Mosquitoes

Mosquitoes nest and breed in areas of standing water. As a homeowner, it is important for you to reduce the amount of these moisture sites as much as possible. Removing debris from your gutters can help ensure that water does not collect here. 

Ticks

Ticks are known for their ability to hide. That being said, it is imperative for you to eliminate these hiding places from your property. You can accomplish this by cutting the grass, getting rid of weeds, and removing woodpiles from your yard.

Fleas

To keep fleas away from your pets, be sure to bathe and groom them on a regular basis. In addition, remember to clean their bedding, collars, and toys. Last but certainly not least, vacuum the floors and carpets in your home frequently.
