Keep firewood at least 20 feet away and off the ground. Good yard care around Rockwall County homes cuts down hiding spots for spiders, ants, and rodents.
Check your Rockwall home for gaps around pipes, foundation cracks, torn screens, and spaces under doors. Even tiny openings let in insects and mice. Seal them with weatherstripping, door sweeps, caulk, and steel wool. Rockwall’s soil can shift and create new gaps. Check your seals each season.
