We can not only help you clean your attic, but we can also offer you our knowledge in the form of advice. Find excellent tips further down on this page and make use of them!
Clean the clutter in the attic
Rodents will chew through paper, cardboard and insulation to gather materials for their nests. Clutter in the attic or basement, like unorganized boxes blocking the entrance, piles of discarded toys and old clothes strewn about, can all attract rats and mice and serve as excellent nesting material. Make sure you clear and dispose of unnecessary items and keep everything else clean and tidy so you can easily spot any 'new arrival'.
Keep your business' attic or similar areas cleaned out
Making sure that your company's attic or similar areas of the building are consistently kept clean is the best way to keep the air quality in good shape as well as discourage harm to the building from mold or pests. It keeps your employees happier and healthier so they can keep up a good work output, rather than leaving them struggling thanks to poor air, and having to deal with pests or mold is a hassle. Keeping things cleaned will help!
Check roof for leaks periodically
It's important to catch any trouble with your roof letting water inside as soon as possible and get it fixed, or else there's risk of water damage occurring in the attic, as well as mold growth. The longer water is able to get in, the more harm will be done and the costlier it will be to get it all fixed. If left long enough, wood may rot enough that it will have to be replaced altogether or else risk all of it caving in.
Check your attic's vents for dust
If you're unsure whether it's time to get your attic cleaned out, a good indication is the vents. They're used to keep air circulating through your home, but if they're clogged up with dust, they won't be able to do so as well. This not only lowers the energy efficiency of your home, but it can be a health risk thanks to the substances polluting the air. If you can see dust stuck in the slats of the vent, it needs to be cleaned.
