How to Prepare for Pest Control
Preparing Your Home for Borer Control Treatment
Identify Infested Areas: Locate areas where borers have been active, such as wooden furniture, flooring, and structural wood. Look for signs like exit holes, frass (wood dust), and damaged wood.

Remove Clutter: Clear out any clutter or unnecessary items from infested areas to provide better access for treatment.
Cover or Remove Food: Ensure that any food items are covered or removed from the treatment area to avoid contamination.
Ventilate the Area: Open windows and doors to ventilate the area where treatment will occur, ensuring adequate airflow.
Access for Technicians: Ensure technicians have easy access to all affected areas, including attics, basements, and any other areas where borers have been detected.
