Rockford, Ill. (WTVO)—

We are officially shifting from the warmer months into the cooler months which means everyone, and everything will want to be spending more time inside. President for Comfort 1^st Insulation Mike Callahan is sharing the best tips on preparing your house for the fall and keeping pests out of the home. Comfort 1^st works on keeping people’s homes comfortable and well insulated. That means that they check things like walls and attics to make sure nothing is too drafty. Speaking of being cold, Comfort 1^st Insulation is hosting their 2^nd annual coat collection to help those in need. Last year they had 12,000 in drop boxes and they are hoping to have more this year.
