There is no reason to have pests living in their storage space. From destroying your belongings, or causing trouble for renters elsewhere, if bugs infest your storage space, it could cause a serious problem. Although we try our best to keep the pests away, we have a few important guidelines that renters must adhere to to lessen the threat. Check out a list of the most effective ways to keep the pests from your storage space below.

• Don’t store perishable goods: It’s important to avoid storing anything that can draw vermin and pests to the storage area. Storing perishable items such as cereals, produce rice, oatmeal, rice or other dry goods could be a magnet for insects. Don’t keep pet food in the storage area of your home.
• Make sure you use the right material: While cardboard boxes aren’t costly, mice may consume them. Storage containers made of plastic can reduce the chance of your possessions getting damaged as mice won’t be able to break through them.
• Douse cotton balls with peppermint Cotton balls that have been soaked in peppermint are a great method to keep rodents and insects from your storage space. Spiders and mice don’t enjoy the scent of peppermint, so they’ll stay away from your storage space if they smell it.
• Make sure you are checking for any intruders. To limit the possibility of damage it’s recommended to look over your storage unit for indications of pests when you’re inside it. Examine the corners to determine the presence of an intruder from the pests.
• Blocks of Cedar: In order to provide extra protection Cedar blocks placed in the corners inside your storage space could assist in preventing insects. Cedar is an excellent repellent for bugs and rodents.

We hope these suggestions assist our tenants to understand how to lessen the risk of encountering a pest issue. Even the most meticulously maintained and well-maintained storage facility is subject to the possibility of pests coming into the facility, due to the possibility that they will be introduced into the storage boxes. If you have any additional concerns, don’t be afraid to speak to our storage experts at the storage facility.
