Keep Pests Away From Your AC Unit



Keep Your Unit Covered When Not In Use

It is a good idea to cover any exterior portion of an air conditioning unit or system at times it is not in use. Air conditioner covers can be purchased from your installation service or from a home goods store. To secure the cover in place, use duct tape around the edges. This will ensure rodents and insects do not wriggle their way under the cover and into your machine.

Use Materials To Make The Area Unattractive

Birds and rodents will shy away from areas where they feel their lives are threatened. Consider placing large plastic birds of prey in an area within view of the air conditioner to help keep these pests from getting too close to the home. They will be likely to vacate the area completely. Shiny objects will also scare away some birds and mice.
