Preventative pest control

In each of the New England Patriots four Super Bowl winning seasons, the team was known for a lot more than simply having a great offense. Look no further than the way in which the Patriots won the 2015 Super Bowl for evidence of what truly sets a team apart: defense. 

There's a similarity in how we protect our homes in Massachusetts against unwanted pests. Without a solid line of defense, we're simply reacting to pest pressure. This is why preventative pest control in Massachusetts matters. 

Here are three things we do at Burgess Pest Management to keep pests like mice, termites, and ants where they belong: outside.

1- Quarterly Pest Management is key. By maintaining a service every three months, we're doing more than simply playing defense against four seasons worth of pests. We're playing a little offense of our own. By focusing on the most common pests during that time of year, we're reducing pest pressure before they're inside. 

2- Preventative pest control in Massachusetts is all about implementing "step-three" of our three part plan: inspect, detect, correct. The recommendations we make often include sealing openings, cleaning yard debris, and maintaining a "weed-free zone" along your foundation. Many of these things can be done on your own!

3- Staying disciplined. It can be frustrating when a pest infiltrates your home. In Massachusetts, this is sometimes caused by four seasons worth of crazy weather. Rising and falling temps, rain, snow, sleet, hail ... you get the point. These are all contributing factors in causing pests to seek refuge inside our homes. The best advice: if you see it, say it. You're our eyes and ears when we're not performing a service in your home.
