ATLANTA, GA, October 29, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- The Atlanta pest control professionals at North Fulton Pest Solutions are reminding residents to seal up their homes before winter comes. Although the temperatures in southern states are not nearly as cold as their northern neighbors, animals will inevitably be drawn indoors when the seasons begin to shift.
Squirrels, raccoons, and rats are just a few of the critters that will take shelter wherever they see fit. If your house is not properly sealed (or excluded as we say in the industry), it could literally be the open door these animals need to come inside. Basements and attics are primary trouble areas, and as such should be given a thorough inspection.
Seal and Insulate for Bugs and Bills
Given the resilience and survival instinct of Mother Nature, the Atlanta wildlife control company says home and business owners should leave no stone unturned. Not only does a wildlife exclusion (sealing entry points into a home or structure) keep animals out, but ensuring proper insulation levels also does wonders from an energy-efficiency standpoint.
Studies from the US Department of Energy have shown that the installation of the recommended level of insulation alone can significantly reduce monthly energy expenditures. The cost-savings are even more apparent in older homes where insulation has deteriorated (in effect reducing its ability to retain internal heat) or is non-existent. According to Blake Edwards, Vice President of North Fulton Pest Solutions, "The best thing about insulation combined with a wildlife exclusion is that it offers short and long-term cost-savings. Saving $100 or more per month is a big deal, not to mention you will be keeping unwelcome guests from taking residency in your home!"
