Pests naturally gravitate toward dirty and moist areas, making places like gutters and other exterior surfaces around your home hot spots for them to gather. In addition to controlling your home’s garbage and waste, keeping surfaces and crevices free of debris and trapped moisture is essential to prevent pest invasion. Our exterior cleaning services at Water Works, from soft washing to paver sealing, are invaluable to the health of your home and preventing unwanted critters from setting up shop. Keep reading to learn how exterior cleaning can help prevent pest infestations!
Exterior Cleaning Displaces Habitats.
Procedures like soft washing, which involves applying a gentle, low-pressure spray to surfaces, disperse colonies of pests that accumulate, whether from food debris, standing water, or plant growth. Regular exterior cleaning removes food sources that attract pests. Fallen leaves from trees and plants provide an excellent hiding and reproductive place for insects such as slugs, snails, and beetles.
Sealants Create Barriers to Entry.
Our paver sealing service is vital in creating barriers between pavers and crevices, which would otherwise foster environments conducive to pest infestation. By sealing these areas, we effectively block potential pests’ entry points, lessening the chance of infestation. This process not only prevents pests from finding a home in these areas but also makes it easier to cleanse and maintain these surfaces, further reducing the risk of infestation.
Exterior Cleaning Reduces Standing Water.
Standing water in gutters, downspouts, and other contained spaces attracts pests because they attract moisture. When there is too much moisture, mold and mildew form, and pests are also drawn to that, so it’s a vicious cycle. Our exterior cleaning services can mitigate the amount of moisture that accumulates around the home, keeping the population of pests at bay. By clearing gutters and other areas prone to water accumulation, we prevent the conditions that attract pests, such as termites, which are incredibly detrimental due to their habits of eating the wood around the structure and eventually damaging the structural integrity of the building.
Our Work Serves As Built-In Inspections.
Our regular exterior cleaning services not only keep your home looking its best but also serve as proactive inspections. We inspect for damage, look for signs of pest infestation, and identify areas susceptible to it, allowing us to tackle the problem at the source before it becomes a significant issue.
