Nothing destroys a picnic like an anthill. Nothing destroys a barbecue like a myriad of mosquitoes. And nothing spoils a morning like seeing a spider, cockroach or mouse somewhere in your house.
Keep insects and creatures away from your home and garden this summer with these 10 best pest control methods.
1. Block them from entering your home
Your first line of defense is to make it difficult for pests to even find an entrance to your home. Check for holes in all screens, and repair if any. Check around your doors and windows for holes, and replace window disconnection when necessary.
2. Clean your kitchen
A pile of crumbs on the counter or on the floor is like a treasure chest for ants and other insects. Let them find treasures elsewhere - outside and away from your home - and make sure you do not offer treasures found in your own kitchen. Clean your countertops, sweep the floor, put the food away immediately and take out the rubbish regularly.
3. Get rid of standing water
Removal of standing water is the first step in the control of mosquitoes. Standing water is breeding ground for mosquitoes and a big bold call for mosquitoes to start a family. Sometimes it is easy to lose standing water, so walk around the property regularly to check it out. Look for rain outlets, check for leaks near your air conditioner, and pick up toys scattered around the garden.
4. Maintain your garden
Keep your landscaping well-groomed to prevent growth, perfect for pests and their nests. Trim shrubs and trees close to the house, remove debris and yes - you will also need to remove the weeds.
5. Eat your fruits and vegetables
Do not let fruits and vegetables ripen too much on your countertop. If you do, the fruit flies will invite you to enchantment, and it's a headache you do not want to remove them.
6. Store your firewood properly
Do not give termites free access to your home. If you store firewood, keep it away from your home or shed. As far as possible actually. Five feet should be the minimum distance, but if you can keep it even longer, you will be in better shape. Also store it in shelves above ground.
7. Do not throw away meat too soon
Do not attempt to dispose of meat debris in the outer garbage unless the garbage is collected within the next 48 hours or more. The combination of rotting meat and summer sun can bring unwanted pests to your garden at an alarming rate.
8. Examine swings and exterior furniture
Check the chains and corners of your swings and garden furniture regularly for cobwebs and egg bags. Remove them when you see them.
9. Do not bring in the outside
Keep the outside toy outside and the inside toy inside. If you need to bring a toy, chair or table, clean them first.
