Conducive Conditions for Clover Mites
There are a few conditions that can increase the chances of a clover mite infestation:
- Cracks in the foundation, siding, or window panes that serve as points of entry and allow clover mites to come in to the home.
- Old tree stumps, branches, and stick piles around the outside of the house.
- A disorganized garage with clutter and storage on the ground, especially around or leaning up against the walls.
Clover Mite Control Tips for Homeowners
There are several things homeowners can do to prevent and reduce clover mite infestations:
- Remove any vegetation or plants that clover mites like to eat from around the exterior of your home, by at least an 18″ – 24″ berth.
- Inspect the exterior of your home, including the foundation, siding, windows, and doorways regularly to ensure there are no points of entry.
