Bugs Getting Through Closed Windows?

The itsy bitsy spider went up the waterspout and into your window and through that crack. Eeek! What is that? How did another Spider in my house again? That’s what I keep thinking when I see one crawling down my mirror in the morning or running across my floor at night. It gives me the heebie jeebies.

We all know why Little Ms. Muffet was scared of that spider who sat down beside her. Spiders or even bugs in general can add that sudden shock to your day when they sneak up your wall or on your leg without you noticing. It’s best when windows and doors can keep these sort of pests outside. I for one can notice a spider a football-length away and in my house with my walls painted white. It doesn’t take long for me to jump on the chair and start screaming at my husband to “Kill that Thingy.” When it comes to pest control your windows should be working with you, not against you like mine were. Window screens should prevent bugs from getting inside your home, but what about the windows themselves. If you windows be open or closed there should be a level of barrier between you and the bugs of the world.

Let’s face it, no amount of trips to the hardware store for bug spray or excessive amounts of vacuuming them up is going to prevent them from getting inside. Old windows are just an easy access point for all the bugs of your life. If your windows don’t seal properly it’s basically a free invitation to the party inside your house. Trust me, with that kind of party Little Ms. Muffet won’t be attending.

If you are having a pest problem, replacement windows and doors might be something to consider. Unless you live in a brand new home that is tightly constructed with no air leaks whatsoever, chances are your home is not bug proof. With insects being able to slip through cracks as thin as a credit card, you’ll want a more hardy seal of approval. Home windows are especially vulnerable because there are more windows in a house than doors. Screens and windows in your house now might not fit in the frame tightly causing holes where bugs can easily enter through. If your current windows are old and require extensive work, consider replacing them entirely. At Conservation Construction we provide windows with a number of important benefits that go beyond bug proofing.
