Keep all rodents out…
Orkin Canada reminds home and business owners to take precautions as winter gets closer…
– Remove clutter indoors and outdoors, trim overgrown vegetation, and keep grass short.
– Eliminate moisture by clearing clogged gutters and fixing leaky pipes or faucets both indoors and outdoors.
– Clean up fallen fruits or vegetables in the yard, store garbage in rodent-proof bins, and prevent overflow.
– Close gaps larger than a quarter-inch with rodent-proof materials, and install weather strips on exterior doors to block entry points.
