Year-Round Pest Management for Gilford Properties

Gilford, NH, is one of those places where everyone wants to live. Known as the “Recreation Center of New Hampshire,” it offers picturesque lakefront living with mountain activities spanning across all four seasons. Plus, the general vibe here is relaxed, and families absolutely love the sense of community.

But there’s one thing homeowners don’t love about Gilford, and that’s the pest pressure they experience living in a lakeside town. However, there’s finally a solution to help you enjoy your home again, and that’s the pest control treatments Mosquito Squad offers. Let’s talk about how it works and why year-round pest management is often a solid investment in Gilford, NH. 

Why Year-Round Pest Management is Crucial for Properties in Gilford

Gilford's location on Lake Winnipesaukee means that while pest pressure shifts with each season, it never fully comes to a halt. In fact, the compressed New Hampshire season means that activity for pests like mosquitoes (one of the primary outdoor concerns) is intense from around June to September. 

Ticks are active even earlier than mosquitoes, typically from spring through the fall, making Lyme disease a significant concern here in Gilford. Most ticks are brought into yards by wildlife like deer and chipmunks. Lots of indoor invaders will also make their presence known in the fall, like stink bugs, Asian beetles, spiders, and rodents, an especially stubborn pest. 

The near-constant pest pressure is a huge reason why year-round pest management is so important for maintaining properties in Gilford. Plus, with so many residents owning seasonal properties they live in temporarily, pests have longer windows of opportunity to invade during winter vacancies.

What You Can Do to Help Protect Your Home From Pests

Whether you live in your lakeside property in Gilford full-time or seasonally, there are measures you can take independently to help reduce pest populations in and around your home and help protect it from potential infestations that can occur during a vacancy. 

Here are a few we recommend:

  • Store trash cans and compost bins away from your house
  • Keep food (including pet food) stored in airtight containers
  • Regularly check for potential entry points around your home, such as around your foundations, eaves, and other places where tiny pests can sneak through
  • Use door sweeps to close up gaps under doors
  • Keep your grass and vegetation near your house trimmed
  • Install fencing to prevent deer and other wildlife carrying ticks from entering your yard
  • Invest in year-round pest management from Mosquito Squad
