Is your entryway starting to look like a shipping center? Tis the season for online shopping! But as the delivery trucks drop off holiday cheer, be careful not to invite unwanted guests inside.
Cardboard boxes are a favorite hangout for pests like cockroaches and silverfish. They love the glue that holds the boxes together and the shelter the corrugated folds provide. Leaving a stack of boxes in your garage or entryway is like rolling out the welcome mat.
Online Shopper’s Pest Protocol:
Open Immediately: Don’t let boxes sit inside for days. Open them, remove the contents, and get rid of the box.
Break ‘Em Down ASAP: Flatten cardboard immediately and move it to your outdoor recycling bin. Don’t store stacks in the garage or basement!
Inspect Before Entering: Give packages a quick once-over for hitchhikers before bringing them inside.
Did a “porch pirate” of the six-legged variety sneak in with your latest order? Contact North Point Pest Solutions. We’ll make sure your home stays secure for the holidays!
