When winter hits, temperatures will begin to drop. As things get chillier outdoors, homeowners will, understandably, start spending more time indoors to escape the cold. However, they are seldom alone as rodent and pest infestations increase during the winter season.
Instead of letting rodents create an issue for you and your family this winter, understand what draws them to your home and take the necessary steps to keep the unwelcome guests far away from your property.
Rodents are mammals which means they need to maintain an appropriate body temperature in order to survive. Therefore, rats, mice, squirrels, and other rodents will look for warmer shelter during the winter months, and your property’s dark crawlspaces, narrow interior passageways, and soft insulation will appear very appetizing to the invasive pests.
Combine that with your home’s convenient accessibility to food and water sources, and it’s easy to see why wintertime rodent infestations are so common.
Even though the weather in Central Florida is rarely freezing, rodents and other pests will still attempt to access your property by exploiting any openings they can to nest in your cozy attic and get to your food supply.
