5 Tips for Making Sure Your Home is Holiday Ready

This is one of the most joyful times of the year but it can come along with some stress, especially if you are hosting a holiday party at your home. As you prepare for a house full of guests, it's time to gear up with your list of things to do! A B Pest Control & Insulation wants to help make it easier, as you prepare for the holiday season. Check out a few tips to prepare your space for the holidays.

1. Clean Up Your Space

Give your home a fresh look by removing some unsightly clutter this time of year. Encourage your entire family to get on board to help prepare your space for your guests. It can help to make your cleaning process less overwhelming if you take each room a day at a time and hone in on cleaning that specific space.

2. Stock Guest Rooms

Hosting is all about giving your guests the best experience as they stay in your home. Ensure all guest bathrooms are stocked with needed products. You don't want a guest to have to ask for more toilet paper right in the middle of your holiday gathering. If you have overnight guests, try to ensure the bedrooms are stocked, as well. This extra step can help make your guests feel even more comfortable in your space.

3. Get into the Festive Spirit

Decorate your space (this is the fun part of hosting)! Give your home a festive overhaul with fun fall decor during your Thanksgiving meal and get that Christmas spirit flowing with a stunning tree and other holiday decor. This can help your guests get into the holiday spirit even more. And don't forget to focus on the table centerpiece to tie it all together!

4. Buy Non-Perishables Ahead

Your shopping list can get a bit crazy this time of year. Try to buy non-perishable items ahead of time to cut down on the long list at the store. Paper products and dry foods can be purchased now to try to get those items out of the way. Also, making a thorough list of needed food and other household supplies can help ensure you aren't making a dash to the store right before guests arrive.

5. Rid Your Home of Pests

Nothing can ruin your holiday party quicker than pests. Have your entire home treated for those pesky critters as more and more try to enter your home this time of year. As the cold weather settles in mid-Missouri, now's the time to put up a defense against those unwelcome guests!

Our pest control company at the Lake of the Ozarks knows this is both an exciting and stressful time of year. Help ease the anxiety of hosting by preparing your space for the holiday season. While we cannot prevent those annoying family members from bombarding your party, we CAN help keep the pests out of your home this holiday season!
