A pest-free environment doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of consistent prevention, early detection, and targeted treatment when pests do appear. Whether you’re protecting a home in Surrey or a commercial property in the Lower Mainland, these 7 strategies work.

7 Strategies for a Pest-Free Environment

1. Seal entry points — gaps around pipes, vents, and doors are the primary entry route for rodents and insects
2. Eliminate food sources — store food in airtight containers and clean up spills immediately
3. Manage moisture — fix leaks and use dehumidifiers in basements
4. Reduce clutter — cardboard and piles of material create pest harbourage
5. Maintain the garden — trim vegetation away from the building and remove standing water
6. Inspect deliveries — pests are commonly introduced in cardboard boxes and second-hand goods
7. Schedule professional inspections — early detection saves significant cost
