How to Keep Your Garage Pest-Free During Winter!

Stay Ahead of Winter Pests with PlateauPest Control

As the temperatures drop, your garage becomes an inviting haven for pests seeking shelter from the cold. Common winter pests like mice, spiders, ants, and silverfish can wreak havoc if they find a way into your garage. At PlateauPest Control, we understand the challenges of keeping your home pest-free during the colder months. Our year-round pest control plan ensures your property stays protected, even in winter. Here’s how you can keep pests out of your garage and the benefits of having a professional technician treat seasonal pests.


Why Do Pests Invade Garages in Winter?

Garages offer pests the essentials for survival: warmth, food, and shelter. Clutter, cardboard boxes, or poorly sealed food items can quickly attract unwanted guests. Plus, gaps in doors, windows, and walls make it easy for pests to sneak in undetected.


Steps to Keep Your Garage Pest-Free

  1. Seal Gaps and Cracks
    Inspect your garage for openings where pests can enter. Pay attention to cracks in walls, the space around pipes, and gaps under doors. Use caulk or weatherstripping to seal them off.
  2. Declutter and Organize
    Pests thrive in cluttered spaces where they can hide. Remove unnecessary items, store belongings in sealed plastic bins, and keep the floor clear.
  3. Store Food Properly
    If you store pet food, birdseed, or other perishables in your garage, keep them in airtight containers. Avoid leaving trash or recyclables exposed.
  4. Eliminate Moisture
    Pests like silverfish and centipedes are attracted to damp areas. Use a dehumidifier and fix any leaks to maintain a dry environment.
  5. Install Weatherstripping
    Prevent pests from entering under garage doors by installing high-quality weatherstripping. Check for wear and tear regularly and replace when necessary.
