Pest Control

Preventing pests requires a collaborative effort between Family Promise Montco PA and tenants. Regular communication and cooperation can significantly reduce the risk of infestations and maintain a healthy living environment. To help prevent pest problems, Family Promise Montco PA employs several proactive measures:

· Inspect apartments for any holes or cracks, especially near doors, windows, and utility entry points.
· Seal gaps with caulk or use steel wool, which pests cannot chew through.
· Keep outdoor areas neat and free from debris, as overgrown vegetation can provide hiding spots for pests.
· Inside, reduce clutter to eliminate potential nesting sites.
· Keep doors and windows closed, especially in the evenings when pests are most active.
· Install door sweeps and weather stripping to prevent entry.
· Place traps in areas where pests are likely to travel, such as along walls or near food sources.
· Encourage tenants to report any signs of pests so that the issue can be addressed.
· Schedule regular inspections by a professional pest control company to identify and address pest problems.
