Riverside, CA (PRWEB) October 22, 2014

One of the leading pest control companies servicing all of Southern California, Gopher Patrol suggests that the end of fall is the perfect time to protect and prevent homes from incoming rodents looking for a nesting spot. It is almost certainly easier for rodents to get into the home than sometimes thought. The winter can be a tough season to maintain when the rodents have such a strong motivation to sustain themselves in an already established home. A few of the most common and easiest forms of prevention are:

Making sure the yard is neat and tidy; meaning cleaning and trimming those trees, branches, and plants that may be hanging over the home.

As well as maintaining a safe distance of 12 inches at least away from the foundation of the home.

Moving inwards, making sure there are weather strips in place helping aid in protection from not only rodents but pests such as spiders and earwigs looking for a warmer spot to stay for the winter.

If by chance one makes it in, limiting the amount of available food sources for them such as: having all food in sealed containers, pet food put away when not feeding time, etc.

The most effective way is prevention. However, if a few of the pesky creatures have made it in and there are noticeable droppings, Gopher Patrol a licensed and qualified pest control company, is offering a rodent and pest control special for this fall and winter of 2014. Being in the pest control business for over 17 years, they have managed to master the art of approaching each individual situation with extreme care and caution. Experience has made them experts at aiding home owners as well as commercial properties and property management companies with all of their pest control needs, ranging from gophers, rats, and voles to spiders, ants, and roaches.

DEAR JOAN: We've experienced something new this summer in my small patio.

Every year I plant a cherry tomato and have always had success in getting a bumper crop. This year, for the first time, squirrels have been stealing lots of tomatoes as soon as they ripen.

We're wondering if the drought is causing them to seek out moisture in fruits and vegetables when they can't find sufficient water.

Our neighbor two doors down has had the same problem for the first time this year. Have you ever heard of this before?

DEAR PATRICIA: I think the drought is affecting squirrels, but probably not in the way you think. If you've never had tomato-thieving squirrels before, count yourself lucky. A good friend of mine has to grow all of her tomatoes in webs of chicken wire.

Squirrels love tomatoes, especially the ripe ones that you were just about to pick. Squirrels can be a nuisance in the garden, but they are no more likely to eat them in drought years than in nondrought years.

The squirrels, however, may have come into your neighborhood because of the drought. There are fewer food and water resources for all wildlife, so squirrels living on the edge of suburbia may have picked up their bags and moved in closer to irrigated lawns and backyard gardens.
