๐ฅ Firewood Safety: Don't Invite Pests Inside ๐ฅ
Firewood piles are warm, sheltered havens that offer perfect refuge for ants, spiders, and even rodents. Storing firewood directly against your home or on the ground creates a direct path for these pests to move indoors.
Your Firewood Storage Rule:
Distance is Key: Store all firewood stacks at least 20 feet away from your home's foundation and walls.
Keep it Off the Ground: Elevate the pile on a rack or blocks to reduce moisture and ground contact.
Only Bring Inside What You Burn: Only bring in enough wood for one night's use to prevent transporting hidden pests inside.
Proper storage is crucial for exclusion. For professional inspections and perimeter treatments to secure your home's exterior, trust TAG Pest Control.
