3 Things You Can Do To Make Your Pesticide More Effective

Unfortunately many homeowners deal with bug infestations. Regardless of where you live, at some point bugs will try to take up residence in your home. This is why it is important to know things to do to keep those bugs out of your house. Here are some tips that every homeowner should do.

1. Get An Exterminator To Come Year Round

One of the biggest mistakes that people make is waiting until they notice the bugs to get them sprayed. In fact, if you wait until the summer when the bugs are a major problem it will be a lot harder to get rid of them. Instead, you should be getting the house sprayed year round.

The reason for this is that when you get the house sprayed in the off-season it prevents the bugs from nesting in your home. Sadly, just because you can't see the bugs doesn't mean that they aren't there. When it is cold outside the bugs will come into your home, probably in the places that you can't see, and make their nests. Then when the weather warms up those nests will start to hatch and you will have a major problem. For this reason, spraying in the winter and the off-season is just as important, if not more important, to eradicating bugs.

2. Don't Forget To Treat Outside

Most likely you are worried about the bugs being inside your home. Which is why you probably are more vigilant about getting treatments done rather than the outside. However, this is a major mistake. The bugs are going to come from the outside into your house. If you really want to get rid of the bugs, you should spray outside around the house, and in the yard, just as much as you spray indoors. This will prevent the bugs from nesting outside the house, making it more likely that you will never deal with bugs inside the house.

3. Wait For Dry Weather

Even though you should be spraying year round, you should ideally wait until the weather is dry to spray. If it is very wet outside or if it rains right after a treatment, it could affect how successful the treatment is. For this reason, schedule the treatments on days that are predicted to be dry.
