Attic Clean up

Now that we’re well into the fall here in the DC area, it is time to begin thinking about attic clean-up. This phrase may conjure up images of someone packing up the boxes in your attic and decluttering. But, really, it encompasses so much more.

Attic clean up is essential for keeping your Waldorf, MD home safe and rodent free throughout the winter. That is why Barefoot Pest Control now offers attic clean up services.

What is attic clean up?

Because we tell you what we offer in our attic clean up, let’s discuss what attic cleanup actually entails. The main goal of attic cleanup is to remove rodents, their signs, and their entry points from your attic space. There are a number of different types of rodents that can invade; however, rats and mice are the most common in Waldorf.

Rats and mice are well-known carriers of disease, including Typhoid, Rat Bite Fever, Salmonellosis, and Rabies. They can also cause a large amount of damage to your home and the insulation keeping you warm this winter. Therefore, it is safe to say that you don’t want any type of rodent living in your attic.

Why do I need attic clean up?

You should consider hiring attic clean up services for a few very important reasons.

1. The removal of rodents and their feces will keep you and your family safe. As mentioned in the last section, rodents are the main carriers for a number of diseases. Plus, they can contaminate water and food. Keeping them out of your Waldorf home will ensure you and your family stays safe.
2. If you have a lot of rodents living in your attic, your home may begin to smell. Rodents create an unpleasant, musty odor, which can be distracting and reduce your home’s livability.
3. With rodents in your attic eating and contaminating the insulation, it may not continue to be as efficient as it should be. You don’t want to have to run your heater longer at a higher temperature during the cold winter days in the DC area. The longer rodents stay in your attic’s insulation, the less well it will keep your home protected from the elements.
