A Guide to Preventing Pests in Clarks Summit, PA Homes


At KB's Pest & Termite Control, we want to help Clarks Summit, PA homeowners create a less inviting environment for common pests. Most pests are looking for three things: food, water, and shelter. By limiting their access, you can significantly reduce your risk of an infestation.

  • Seal Potential Entry Points: Pests can enter through tiny cracks and openings. Regularly inspect the exterior of your Clarks Summit, PA home for gaps around utility pipes, vents, and foundation cracks. Seal these with caulk or steel wool. Ensure weather stripping on doors and windows is intact.
  • Eliminate Moisture and Standing Water: Pests are drawn to water. Fix all leaky pipes and faucets promptly. Ensure your gutters are clean and downspouts direct water away from the foundation. Eliminate any standing water in your yard, as this is a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
  • Maintain Smart Sanitation Practices In the House: Clean up crumbs and spills immediately. Store food (including pet food) in airtight containers. Take out the trash regularly and keep bins clean. Reduce clutter in basements, attics, and garages. Piles of boxes, paper, and clothing provide ideal hiding spots for pests like spiders and rodents.
  • Manage Your Landscape: Keep tree branches and shrubs trimmed back from your house, as these can act as bridges for pests like ants. Store firewood at least 20 feet away from your Clarks Summit, PA home and off the ground. Firewood piles are a prime location for termites and other pests. Keep mulch beds a few inches away from your foundation.
  • Be Vigilant About What You Bring Inside: Check grocery bags, cardboard boxes from deliveries, and second-hand furniture for signs of pests like roaches or bed bugs before bringing them into your home.By following these proactive steps, you can make your Clarks Summit, PA home a much less attractive target for pests. For complete protection, a professional preventative service plan from KB's Pest & Termite Control is your best defense.

Clarks Summit, PA Insights: Population,
Zip Codes, Influence, and Service Areas

The first settler in the area currently known as Clarks Summit was William Clark. Clark had fought in the Battle of Bunker Hill during the Revolutionary War, and as payment for his military service, he was issued 800 acres (3.2 km2) of Pennsylvania land by Congress. Because of disputes between Pennsylvania and Connecticut over the area of land that is now northern Pennsylvania (resulting in the Pennamite-Yankee War), the land deed issued to Clark was deemed invalid by the Luzerne County land grant office. Clark had no choice but to pay for the land himself. In March 1799, Clark and his three sons moved into a log cabin in the Abington wilderness, located on what is currently the Clarks Green Cemetery. The first school was built in 1893 and was destroyed by fire two years later. The village of Clarks Summit and an adjacent tract of land were incorporated into the Borough of Clarks Summit on August 30, 1911.
