Schools in Allison Park resume each August, and unfortunately that bustle often coincides with mice seeking food in classroom snack closets and nearby homes. Spectrum Pest Control partners with families to create safe, school‑year‑long deterrent programs. We favor low‑impact mechanical traps over poisons near children, documenting captures with a smartphone app parents can monitor. Outside, we install rodent‑proof door sweeps and advocate maintaining mulch at least twelve inches from siding. Seasonal reminders encourage checking holiday décor boxes, a common nesting site. Our holistic approach reduces allergen exposure, safeguards pantry staples, and supports a healthy learning environment. With proactive service, children concentrate on homework instead of unexplained scratching sounds at night, letting parents relax and enjoy peaceful evenings without unwelcome guests.
