Discard Food Waste Safely
Avoid leaving food scraps out in the open as this
is an outright invitation for rodents and pests

outdoor bin with a lid cannot be easily lifted by
the wind.

Keep Your Yard Tidy
An untidy yard is an appealing nesting ground for
bugs as they can easily make their way into your
property via debris and detritus that is piled
around the foundations. Ensure you trim the lawns
regularly and avoid storing firewood close to
your house as this serves as an invitation for
termites. If this is not possible, create
barriers beneath the wood to deny them of direct
access.
