Put the Freeze on Winter Pests

Raccoon - Put the Freeze on Winter Pests

Everybody likes to go indoors in the winter, and that includes winter pests. It’s cold outside and there’s not enough out there to eat. But inside your snug, comfortable home there’s plenty for unwanted visitors to munch on. To avoid the contamination and property damage these invaders cause, call on the pest control services of Legacy Pest Control. We’ve been serving northern Utah for more than 20 years. We employ safe, guaranteed, effective methods to eliminate pests, and we’ll also inspect your home and help you keep them out.

5 Winter Pests in Utah

Of all the vermin that threaten property, there are five in particular that look toward your home as an ideal place to come in out of the cold.

Mice

No pests are more prevalent than house mice. They nest in dark areas and they love to chew. Drywall and electrical wires are favorites, and they’ve even been known to start fires. Mice contaminate food and spread disease.

Rats

Norway rats like to make their homes in clutter and debris, and they chew even more effectively than mice, even through pipes. They also carry a more impressive array of diseases.

Cockroaches

These pests hitchhike into homes in boxes and bags and make their way to kitchens and bathrooms. Not only do they contaminate food and spread disease but they also can make allergies flare-up.

Brown recluse spiders

These arachnids spin webs in out-of-the-way places such as closets, and they like to hide in clothing and shoes. It’s no fun if one bites you: they’re venomous.

Raccoons

Some think they’re adorable in the wild, but they’re not so cute when they’re going through your garbage can or climbing down your chimney. They create a mess and they also can carry rabies.

 

What You Can Do About Winter Pests

If there are droppings, damaged food packages or gnaw marks you may have rodents. If you see one cockroach you probably have more. We at Legacy Pest Control can inspect your home and tell you if you have a potential winter vermin problem. We’ll also give you tips on how to keep them out in the first place. For example:

  • Seal cracks and holes on your exterior. Mice can slip through an opening as small as a dime.
  • Eliminate places rodents like to hide. Avoid clutter and keep boxes off the floor.
  • Keep counters and floors free of crumbs.
  • Don’t allow moisture to build up under appliances or in crawl spaces and basements.
  • Keep trees and shrubs trimmed clear of the house.
  • Cover chimneys with mesh or caps.

First time customer here - after spotting a couple more black widows and wasps than we were comfortable with, I gave Legacy a call. They responded within the day and had a team out within a week. Services were on time and as promised. Thanks for the great experience!

Called to set up an appointment it was after they left for the day. They called me back next day and was able to come fit me in the following day for a foundation spray. Always quick and easy to get in and they do a fantastic job. Always so friendly. Love doing business with them.

We've been using Lagacy for about 5 years and they work so hard to make sure they've addressed ALL of our concerns. I HATE BUGS. They take their time and GET IT DONE RIGHT. nside and out.. We have referred a number of people to them, and they all feel the same way. GREAT service, GREAT PRICE and AWESOME people. 5 out of 5☆s from this bug free property!

Unfortunately we had some problem resolving a customer service issue at first. However, they did all they could to resolve my concerns and in the end they provided me a complimentary service.
