Tips To Avoid Mice in River Vale, NJ

People are very anti-mouse and for very good reason. Mice enter homes and bring with them nothing but trouble. To avoid mice and the trouble that comes with them including: parasites, property damage, the destruction of personal property, diseases, and contaminated food sources; we have put together some tips.

• Seal cracks and gaps in the foundation or exterior walls of your home, including spaces around utility and pipe entrances; remember mice can enter through a space as small as the diameter of a pencil.
• Install door sweeps on exterior doors and repair damaged screens in doors and windows.
• Install screens on vents and caps on openings to chimneys.
• Replace loose weather stripping around windows and doors.
• Store firewood at least 20 feet away from the house and keep bushes trimmed and cut back away from your foundation.
• Inspect packages and boxes for signs of mice before bringing them into your home, especially if they were previously being stored in a garage, shed, or other outbuildings.
• Make sure that outdoor trash cans have tight fitting or locking lids; store them away from the exterior of your home.

Top 5 Pests in River Vale, NJ

Listed below is a list of the top five pests (bed bugs, mosquitoes, termites, ants, cockroaches) found in River Vale that offer the most cause for concern for both residential and commercial property owners. ChemTec Pest Control experts have a deep understanding of these common pests and how to quickly eliminate them from any property.

1. Bed bugs are a pest that are often found in public places and will hitchhike their way into homes and businesses throughout New Jersey – even right here in River Vale. Once inside your property, they will feed on the blood of the sleeping people inside. Bed bugs aren’t known to transmit any diseases, but their presence can cause a lot of itching, stress, and sleepless nights.
2. Mosquitoes are a species of parasitic pest. The females feed on the blood of people and animals in order to get the protein that is required to create their eggs. Because the females feed on such a wide variety of hosts, they carry and transmit a wide variety of serious diseases to people and pets including the West Nile Virus, encephalitis, canine heartworm, and more.
3. Termites are highly destructive pests that typically enter homes through tiny cracks in the foundation as they forage for food. Once inside, they tend to attack and feed on the structural wood deep within wall voids. They are especially drawn to wood that has previously been damaged by water. If left untreated, a termite infestation can lead to significant damages that can affect the structural integrity of a building and that can be very costly to repair.
4. Ants are a very invasive pest that can create their main nest outside and find their way inside homes and other buildings while out and about foraging for food. Once inside, they may decide to create a satellite nest behind your walls, in crawl spaces, or underneath floors. Ants are very difficult to eliminate and will contaminate food sources.
5. Cockroaches are a very dangerous pest to have living in your home or business. Before invading a home or other building, most were living in highly unsanitary places like sewers, trash piles, and drains. They carry many different parasites, bacteria, and viruses on their legs and body that they contaminate food, food prep areas, and utensils. Also, their shed skins and feces can trigger asthma attacks, especially in young children.
