Cockroach control around Windstone
Roaches need water, food and shelter, so leaky pipes under sinks, pet food left out overnight and cardboard stored in the garage all help them settle in. Fix drips, keep food and pet food in sealed containers and ask about gel baits, which lower exposure compared with sprays. See cockroach control.
Mosquito control around Windstone
Flower pots, toys, tarps and clogged gutters can all breed mosquitoes in summer. Make a weekly walk around the yard part of your routine to dump standing water, and use EPA-registered repellent at dawn and dusk. See mosquito control.
A simple seasonal routine
Spring: watch for termite swarmers and wings, which Alabama Extension says appear from about late February through June. Summer: dump standing water weekly for mosquitoes. Late summer: watch for yellowjackets, which peak in August or September. Fall and winter: seal gaps before mice move in.
Flea and tick control for pet owners
Homes with pets see more flea calls. The EPA calls daily vacuuming the best method for initial flea control and recommends washing pet bedding in hot, soapy water every two to three weeks. Treat pets with products from your veterinarian at the same time. Ticks ride in on pets too, and the Alabama Department of Public Health reported 124 tick-borne disease cases in the state in 2023.
