Have a Sanitary Thanksgiving!

As the holidays approach, many of us are planning to prepare a lot of food for numerous guests. When preparing large meals, many of us can cut corners in ways that are not normal. Surface areas might be doused with turkey gravy or vegetable oil. Food might fall to the floor and be left there until you are finished stirring the soup or basting the bird. Of course, as television personality and culinary expert Anthony Bordain once said, "I'd never let a little dirt ruin a good meal." The same can be said of the inevitable mess of cooking. Still, a little mess is a lot different than an unsanitary food prep environment, and that is why getting any lingering pest situation handled before Thanksgiving is so important.

Whether we are talking about flies or mice, the presence of pests is more than just a momentary inconvenience or a little bit of lovingly acquired grime. Pests spread diseases, and their presence can turn a big family meal into a family heath crisis. By spreading germs on any surface they touch, both of these beasts can become a real problem for a high-quality dinner.

With disposable fly traps placed anywhere your home might be vulnerable to a fly invasion, you can take a huge bite out of these critters. With the winter setting in, they will be fleeing into homes to try and survive the cold. Don't allow them to make your home their winter nest. Even if your home is unlikely to incur an infestation, some preparation—in the form of pre-ordering disposable fly traps—can be helpful.

Mice can also ruin Thanksgiving. Not only do they spread diseases through their feces and saliva, they will also dine on any foods they can get their hands on. Before you know it, an entire holiday feast can be compromised, costing you hundreds of dollars and creating more than a little disappointment. Glue mouse traps are really a necessity to have on hand for anyone who owns a home. Does that cover just about everyone? 

Keeping the kitchen sanitary is not the meticulous practice it may sound like. Instead, merely keeping food safe to eat can give your holiday the genuine feel of hominess without the risk of dysentery. Some sticky mousetraps or a fly trap is not much of an expense when you are assuring your Turkey Day goes off without a hitch.
