Back to School Means Back to Pest Control Prep

As Sacramento schools gear up for another academic year, there’s one subject that shouldn’t be overlooked: pest prevention. From ants in the cafeteria to rodents in storage closets, schools provide the perfect environment for pests to thrive if not properly protected.

At Pest Pros Pest Solutions, we work with schools, daycare centers, and educational facilities across the Sacramento area to ensure pests don’t disrupt learning environments. Whether you're an administrator, teacher, or facility manager, here’s what you need to know before the first bell rings.

Why Are Schools a Hotspot for Pests?

Schools naturally attract pests due to:

Food in classrooms and cafeterias
High foot traffic and open doors/windows
Storage areas with clutter or cardboard
Moisture-prone areas like locker rooms and bathrooms

Pests like ants, cockroaches, mice, rats, spiders, and even wasps can quickly become more than just a nuisance—they pose health risks, damage infrastructure, and impact the student experience.

Top 5 Pest Prevention Tips for Sacramento Schools

Schedule a Professional Inspection Before Students Return
Many pests take advantage of quiet summer campuses. A thorough inspection can catch issues early and prevent infestations before they begin.
Seal Entry Points
Doors, vents, windows, and cracks in the foundation are all easy access points for pests. A proactive exclusion plan helps keep them out.
Keep Food and Waste Under Control
Clean up crumbs, seal trash bins, and remove garbage daily. Kitchens and lunch areas should be cleaned and sanitized regularly.
Reduce Clutter in Classrooms and Storage
Cardboard boxes, piles of paper, and old supplies can attract insects and rodents. Consider plastic bins with lids and regular cleanouts.
Partner with a Local Pest Control Expert
Sacramento’s climate creates unique pest pressures. A local, licensed pest control provider—like Pest Pros—can tailor a prevention plan to your facility’s specific needs.
