Winter rain and cool nights create steady pressure from rodents looking for dry shelter, and the damp soil beside foundations gives carpenter ants a reason to nest close to the house. Then summer arrives with dry heat, and insects gather around watered plants, dripping hoses and shady spots against the walls. Pests here are rarely away for long, they simply shift to where conditions are best.

A Veneta home does well on a seasonal routine. Before the rains, clean the gutters, cut back branches and shrubs touching the house, and store firewood away from the walls. During winter, check the attic and crawl space for rodent signs. In spring, look over decks and window frames for soft wood and begin exterior treatment. Through summer, keep water from pooling and watch for new wasp nests.
