It’s April, and that means we are still in National Pest Management Month. In the spirit of the month, and with warmer weather leading to a quick uptick in pest presence, we are continuing our series on the many ways you can begin living that pest-free lifestyle and enjoy the beautiful spring weather.

  • Keep all counters and floors clear of pest-bait by wiping and sweeping after cooking each meal, as ants and cockroaches are more than happy to set up shop in your kitchen.
  • If you can, save a sample of any pest you encounter, whether by trapping it in a jar or taking a quick cellphone photo. This can help your pest-control expert later as you try to identify what critter has infested your home or business.
  • Make sure that if you do need to seek out the help of a pest-management company, that you verify their license and credentials. At Specialized Pest Patrol, we are more than happy to show you the proof that we are qualified and experienced in handling any and all pest-related problems.
  • Get to know your pest-management professional by way of fully understanding their processes, warranties, and contracts. A truly reputable pest management company, like Specialized Pest Patrol in the greater Sacramento area, will be up-front with you about these and be happy to explain any questions you may have.
