Better to prevent an infestation than to need pest control treatment. Here are easy things that every homeowner can do to reduce the risk of critter invasion
1)Be sure your attic and crawlspace are well ventilated.
2)Direct water away from your home's foundation with gutters or splash blocks.
3)Consider a dehumidifier in your damp basement.
4)Keep an 18 inch barrier free from mulch and plantings around your home's foundation.
5)Store firewood 5 inches off the ground and 20 feet away from the house.
6) Be sure that any wood portions of any building do not touch the soil.http://www.catopestcontrol.com/preventative-pest-control-tips
