Pests can breach a home’s security in numerous ways. They can cause structural damage, create health risks through disease, and introduce a level of instability into one’s living space. To properly protect a home from these threats, it takes more than an old-school approach to pest control. It often requires staying up-to-date on your home services and maintenance. At Schendel Pest Services, we can help with both.

As specialists in home protection and pest control, Schendel Pest Services offers essential home services like attic insulation, gutter protection, and wildlife exclusion. Each of these is designed to work in coordination to provide the most thorough and effective defense for your home.

DIY pest control methods typically offer only temporary relief, as they often fail to address the fundamental vulnerabilities that allow pests to flourish. A professional service, in contrast, utilizes a far more thorough approach. We locate and resolve pest issues at their point of origin.

Home Services for Comprehensive Protection

One must consider that just getting rid of existing pests is a reactive approach. To truly solve a problem and prevent it from recurring, you need to proactively address the root causes and potential entry points. That’s where our home services can help.

Pest Control Attic Insulation

Your attic can be a shelter for pests like rodents, insects, and even wildlife. They offer warmth and shelter for these unwanted creatures. Old, damaged, or insufficient insulation provides ideal nesting material and offers them direct access to your living space.

The technicians at Schendel Pest Services will remove your current insulation and install new pest control insulation. This makes your home less appealing to them, and it also improves the home’s overall energy efficiency. Many homeowners attempt to control attic pests by setting traps, but these methods don’t tackle what draws pests to the attic initially.

Gutter Protection

Clogged gutters are more than an aesthetic problem; they can attract pests and provide a viable breeding ground for them. Standing water in gutters is especially dangerous since it can breed mosquitoes. 

We install durable gutter protection systems to stop debris from piling up and keep water flowing away from your home’s foundation. This keeps your gutters clear and makes your home less inviting to pests.

Rodent and Wildlife Exclusion

Of course, it’s always the more effective measure to prevent nuisance pests from getting inside in the first place. Schendel Pest Services provides rodent and wildlife exclusion services to stop these pests from getting into your home.

Exclusion services include identifying and sealing all potential entry points in your home, such as cracks in the foundation, gaps around pipes, and unsealed vents. We start with a thorough inspection to identify these points. Following this, we seal these vulnerable points with tough, pest-proof materials, such as Flexi-Armour. As a part of our trapping services, our team can also remove rodents and wildlife.

Integrated Pest Management (IPM)

By adding these services, your pest control company, Schendel Pest Services, is using a comprehensive, holistic strategy known as Integrated Pest Management (IPM). This approach examines the conditions that help pests thrive, and the methodology uses a combination of tactics, not just chemicals, for lasting pest control. It means we don’t just react to pests. We also work to make your home less appealing to them from the start. Ultimately, this saves time, money, and prevents future difficulties.
