How Do They Get In?
Unlike other pests, snakes cannot chew or dig their way into your home, so they try to find other ways to enter. The easiest way they come in is just how you do, through an open door. They can also slither through open windows and through crawl spaces if the gap is large enough. Surprisingly, they can also fit under doors, again, if the opening is large enough. Most snakes that enter your home are small, though, so for them, the spaces don't have to be too big.
Why Do Snakes Enter Homes?
If you have birds in your yard or rodents in your house, you may be attracting snakes onto your property. Although you may not control the birds, you can control the rodent problem. Calling a professional pest control company at the Lake of the Ozarks can help you get rid of the rodents hiding in your walls. Unfortunately, snakes like similar conditions as human. During the summer, they like cool places and during the winter, they like warmer places to hibernate, which is why they may seek your home for shelter. During the fall, you may see more snakes than usual, as they are more active due to the nice weather and they are preparing for hibernation.
How To Prevent Snakes From Coming In?
A well-trimmed yard is the first line of defense for keeping snakes at bay. Small predators like snakes like to hide in shaded overgrown areas. If you keep your yard maintained, you will have fewer snakes in your yard, which means less of a chance they will make their way inside. To keep them from coming inside, you need to close off entrance points. Make sure your window and door frames are sealed and any holes that lead to your basement or home are closed up. If you need help finding these entrance points, call a Lake of the Ozarks snake removal company. A B Pest Control & Insulation can help you find any ways snakes can get into your home.
What To Do If A Snake Is In Your Home
Although the snake may not be venomous, a snake bite is still not something you want to deal with, so make sure the snake is isolated. Make sure all family members, including pets, are safe and away from the snake. Once everyone is safe and away from the snake, call A B Pest Control & Insulation.
