You can’t do much to stop pests from entering your home before you call an exterminator, but there are a few things you can do to help make sure that when your exterminator arrives, they are able to do the job. First, clean up any food or other items that attract pests. Be sure to remove all food products from the kitchen and bathroom as these areas are the most common entry points for pests.

One of the biggest questions I’m asked by my clients is how they can get rid of cockroaches and other pests without using pesticides. Pesticides can be dangerous to humans, pets, and the environment, so it’s important to know how to manage pests without them. One of the best ways to control pests naturally is to reduce or eliminate food sources they use to feed. You can do this by cleaning up food spills and keeping your kitchen, bathrooms, and other areas where pests are often found clean and free from clutter. Dishes and pots should be cleaned and put away after use. Use pest control traps and baits to prevent cockroaches and other pests from entering your home. Use traps and baits in areas you know cockroaches frequent and in areas that are heavily trafficked

Inspect for signs of pest activity.

The absolute best way to prepare for a visit from an Orkin professional is to keep your home and yard clean. Pay particular attention to areas where pests are known to hang out, like under decks, porches, crawlspaces, and garages. Clutter and piles of items that provide food sources are also good candidates for being treated by Orkin.
