Spring Cleaning To Help Get Rid Of Pests

Keeping your house clean can help prevent pests. Check out this Spring Cleaning tips from Orkin to keep bugs away.

Answer: Common spring cleaning chores like dusting, vacuuming and cleaning out closets can help reduce pests in and around your home. Dirt and dust can provide food for cockroaches (insects that eat just about anything). Plus, extra clutter can make it more difficult to find signs of pest activity.

For additional help with this call your local Orkin Branch Office.
