Do you have a problem
with pests in your home? If so, you may be attracting them without even
realizing it! Here are a few things you might be doing that are attracting
flying insects, waste food, rodents, mosquitoes, and bees:
1. Leaving food out: If
you leave food out, especially sweets and other items that pests love, you're
basically inviting them into your home. Be sure to clean up any food messes
right away and store food properly.
2. Having dirty dishes:
Like food, dirty dishes are also attractive to pests. Be sure to wash dishes
right after use and don't let them pile up in the sink.
3. Not cleaning up: In
general, a messy home is more inviting to pests than a clean one. Be sure to
vacuum regularly and dust all surfaces to keep your home clean and uninviting
to pests.
4. Leaving doors and
windows open: If you leave doors and windows open, you're letting pests in. Be
sure to keep them closed, especially at night, to keep pests out.
5. Not fixing damaged
screens: If you have damaged screens, you're letting pests in. Be sure to
repair or replace any damaged screens to keep pests out.
By following these tips, you can help prevent pests from coming into your home. If you already have a pest problem, be sure to contact a professional for help.
