Let Lawn Pride Protect Your Home Against Perimeter Pests
Perimeter pests live near your home's perimeter. They hang around the house’s exterior and can access indoor spaces quickly if you don't take care of them properly. Every spring, spiders, earwigs, ants, roly-polies, millipedes, and other bugs can get into your home. Fortunately, our perimeter pest control service involves treatments around your home to keep these pesky species outside.
We have the experience and local expertise to change your application schedule based on your area's weather and seasons. We use this knowledge to determine the timing so that each perimeter pest control treatment brings the best possible results.
Your Best Defense Is Understanding Perimeter Pest Control
It might seem impossible to protect your indoor spaces against bugs all the time, but we can recommend some essential steps to take to reduce your risk of an insect invasion.
Seal Up Cracks & Openings
Bugs can enter your home through tiny cracks. Inspect your windows and screens to identify and seal cracks and holes and add weather stripping to your exterior doorways.
Clean Up Your Kitchen
Keep food in tightly sealed containers to avoid attracting bugs. Clean spilled food or drink on counters and floors, and check your pets’ food dishes for bugs.
Dry Up Damp Areas
Bugs are attracted to water as much as food. Fix leaky pipes, ensure your dishwasher and washing machine work properly, and use a dehumidifier in damp places.
Sweep & Clean Regularly
Simple tasks like weekly vacuuming, sweeping, cleaning your sink and tub, and emptying your trash cans are highly effective for home pest control.
Keep Your Home Exterior Free of Debris
Bugs use yard waste and wood stacks as hiding places. Keep your exterior leaf and weed-free, prune bushes regularly, and stack wood away from the foundation.
Eliminate Bugs Already in Your Home
Consider using bait or traps to remove ants or other bugs from your home. Only do this if you can keep the bait away from children and pets.
Season-Long Perimeter Pest Control Service With Multiple Applications
While you can keep bugs at bay for a short time with one application, we solve the issue for an entire season with multiple treatments. We recommend scheduling our five-treatment perimeter pest control program to completely control outdoor bugs and insects.

What attracts insects to enter my home?
Food, shelter, and water are the staple concerns pests have when looking for a home.
If your house provides these resources, earwigs, spiders, and other creepy crawlers will move from your lawn into your kitchen, basement, and other spaces. You can find many species trying to get inside homes, such as millipedes, pillbugs, silverfish, and house centipedes. The pest type entering your home may depend on the time of year, and some of these pests can cause more problems than others. Bug infestations can start if you leave food out, don't clean up stains or spills, or have an area in your home with high moisture or standing water.
Is one bug in my home a big deal?
One bug isn't necessarily a big deal, but it can be a sign your home has cracks or holes that allow the creature inside. Furthermore, if invading insects find food or water sources or a suitable nesting area, you could eventually face an infestation. You can avoid serious pest control problems if you eliminate the current bugs, solve the problems attracting them, and close any openings in your home.
What time of year do insects move into homes?
Insects can invade your home at any time of year. You'll commonly see certain bugs trying to get in during the spring or summer months, while other pests will attempt an invasion in fall or early winter when the weather gets colder. The type of pest to worry about depends on factors like your cleanliness, any food or water sources, and your climate.
