Pest Control in Knoxville, Tennessee

It’s wintertime in Knoxville, so that means there is no need to worry about insects, rodents, or wildlife bothering you and your home, right? Well, it may be true that pests are generally a little less active in the winter months, but it is never a good idea to let down your guard against any pests no matter the date on the calendar. In fact, wintertime is the time when pests have sought the warmth of your attic and wall voids. They may be less active outside, but they are more active inside. A few things to think about in regards to wintertime pests:

• 21 million homes in the United States are invaded each winter by rodents.
• Rodents are carriers of diseases such as Hantavirus and salmonella. They also contaminate food and can bring lice, mites, ticks, and fleas into your home.
• When rodents get into your home, they get into your wall voids and attic spaces and damage insulation, stored items, treasured keepsakes, and even wires, which can be a fire hazard.
• Ants, cockroaches, and spiders in your home can cause allergies and asthma attacks. They are also known to transmit bacteria and damage and contaminate food sources.
• If termites are present in your walls, they can eat away at the wood of your home for years without being detected. Even in winter, they will continue to devour your house 24 hours a day non-stop.
