Stop Pests & Save Money: How Prevention Adds Home Value

Janet was shocked to find her kitchen full of moths — flying everywhere, cupboards crawling. She called a pest company for a quick fix and got one... at a shockingly high price. Later, she learned that a monthly service contract would have covered the visits and saved her a fortune. In fact, under a contract, she could call for help at any time, with no limit on the number of visits.

Taking a proactive approach now protects your home and helps you avoid more costly repairs later in the season.

Why Spring Is Prime Time for Pest Activity

As temperatures rise, pests become active again, searching for food, water, and shelter, and your home often provides all three.

Common spring pests to watch for:

●       Ants: First seen in kitchens and along foundations. 

●       Termites: Spring swarmer's can indicate hidden colonies and structural risk

●       Rodents: Still active after winter, continuing to nest and search for food

●       Wasps & Hornets: Build nests on eaves, decks, and outdoor areas

●       Ticks & Mosquitoes: Emerge quickly as outdoor activity increases

The Cost of Waiting

A few ants today can be an infestation tomorrow. A tiny wasp nest becomes a safety hazard fast. Waiting means bigger bills and more stress. Routine prevention catches issues before they start and, as Janet learned, a service contract turns surprise emergencies into predictable protection.

●      Clean landscaping: Trim bushes away from the house and remove leaf litter.

●     Eliminate standing water: Check gutters, planters, and tarps that can collect water and attract mosquitoes.
