Pests can creep into your yard and take up residence if you let them. And while our professional pest control treatments do the heavy lifting when it comes to protecting Northport, NY residents from pests, there are other steps that can be taken. Taking a few key precautions can go a long way towards preventing pests from taking over your yard and constantly attacking you and your pets. We’ll highlight some of these steps below to give you a head start.
There are several steps that can be taken to make a yard less attractive to invading pests and keep numbers lower over time. Here’s a closer look at some of the most effective steps you can take to keep pests at bay:
Mow Tall Grass
Tall grass not only provides pests with hiding places but also gives them a place to jump onto you and your pets. Mowing tall grass and keeping it trimmed over time reduces the number of hiding places pests have to choose from on your property while also helping you maintain a better-looking yard.
Cut Back Overgrown Greenery
Overgrown greenery like trees and shrubs can also attract pests and provide them with hiding places. Trimming back dense foliage in your yard, especially near walkways or entrances, can go a long way toward limiting pest interactions on a day-to-day basis.
Eliminate Standing Water
Mosquitoes are drawn to areas with sources of standing water, which is why it’s important to keep an eye out for them. Managing active water sources and eliminating risk factors that can cause the accumulation of standing water, like clogged gutters, is an essential step toward keeping mosquitoes at bay.
Clean Up Clutter
A cluttered lawn, in addition to giving pests several hiding places, also provides shelter for the small animals that can carry pests onto your property. Tidying up your yard is one of the simplest ways to reduce pest numbers.
