Excited to curl up this weekend with your favorite candy, your hero cape and a long, long horror flick marathon in celebration for the holiday? Here at All Aluminum, we love Halloween and horror just as much as the next guy, but we draw the line when the bumps in the night are coming from our gutter system!
Spiders: While they may be the perfect decoration item for this spooky, scary time of the year, they’re definitely not a pest you’d want nesting around your home. Sure, a few spiders are good for natural pest control, but an entire colony residing in your eaves is a creepy though.
Centipedes: As if eight legs wasn’t enough, let's add about a hundred more! While they’re generally harmless, like their gutter dwelling friends the slug and the spider, they’re still not getting an invite indoors any time soon. Unfortunately, if they take up residence in dirty gutters, they just might enter unannounced.
Mosquitoes: We realize it’s the off-season for these tiny vampires, but nonetheless, they’re definitely up there on our list of “least favorite insects.” To make matters worse, they thrive and breed in standing water. That means your gutters are a prime target if they’re not draining correctly.
Termites: The jaws, or mandibles, of these tiny creatures are strong enough to chomp right through the wood of your fascia boards. But they won’t stop there. Once inside your walls, termites will eat their way right through your beams, compromising your home structure.
Mice: Cute and furry, yes. A pleasure to have living in your gutters and eaves, no. Like the other critters mentioned above, mice not only leave droppings and contaminate your home with disease, but they can attract larger predators as well. You certainly don’t want a family of raccoons nesting up there with them!
Mold: Last, but certainly not least, damp, rotting wood’s favorite companion: mold. Not only does it cause irreversible and costly damage to you home, but it can compromise your indoor air quality and the health of your family members.
Do yourself a favor. Keep your home and family safe from spooky, scary gutter dwellers with a hearty gutter cleaning from the professionals at All Aluminum Gutters. At least that’s one thing that won’t be frightening you this Halloween!
