What can you do to keep your home pest-free?Sure, you can use pesticides,
but these can be harmful to family petsand very dangerous for children.
FOOD SOURCES
Insects and rodents are quite happy to munchthrough fresh food, stale food, garbage, orcrumbs you’ve accidentally spilled on the floor.
All food items should be kept in sealed bags orcontainers, plus all trash and waste foodshould be kept in sealed containers, too.
WATER SOURCES
Roaches love water, so if you leave your sinkfull of water they’re going to make use of it,polluting it as they do.
So if you have a leaking faucet, radiator ordishwasher, get it repaired and remove thewater-damaged wood or fabric in that area.
Even the tiniest pools of water are enough tokeep insects healthy and hydrated for weeks,so mop up all spills.
Pay careful attention to any cracks in theexterior of your home, spaces around pipes,and any holes or gaps near windows.
If you can't afford to repair the cracks andholes, then you can at least seal them withcaulk or expanding foam.
Any holes or gaps in your baseboards shouldalso be sealed and, if possible, completelyreplace damaged baseboards.
