Ways To Keep Bugs Out Of Your House

Bugs can be downright nasty. They crawl all over your home and create unsanitary conditions for you and your family to live in during the spring. They destroy by eating rotted wood, devouring food that you left out on countertops, and breeding in mass quantities. If you blink, you can go from a handful of bug visitors to a full-blown infestation.

Things You Can Do to Prevent Insect Infestations in Your Home

A bug problem gets worse before it gets better in many cases. It goes undetected until there are too many bugs for you to deal with on your own safely. That's why it's imperative that you actively implement pest prevention strategies as part of your regular household maintenance routine.

Ways to keep bugs out of your house include:

• Sealing entryways in door frames and windows. Close all gaps with caulking.
• Getting rid of standing water in yards. Dump buckets and bird baths often.
• Shaking out boxes before bringing them into the house. Look inside the box and turn it over in the grass to remove any spiders, ants, or stink bugs that have found their way into the cardboard container.
• Using natural bug repellents on your houseplants and flower arrangements. Make sure to treat them often to keep the bugs from wanting to take up residence in your flower pots or near your vases.

There are many things you can do to keep bugs from entering your home this spring. Among the easiest is to have the house professionally cleaned regularly. Paying close attention to spaces that receive little human contact helps tremendously. Bugs tend to hide in dark places as a way to protect themselves from humans.
