1.
Keep the Kitchen Clean - Pests grow in the
dirty, damp atmosphere. To avoid pests/insects keep the kitchen shelves, racks,
stove-top, and drawers clean. Wipe the food preparing area regularly with a
disinfectant cleaner. Also, if food particles are lying out in the open, they
attract more insects. Some pests are attracted to open food left in the
kitchen. Try to keep all your food items in air-tight containers. This pest
control advice may not eliminate the pest infestation problem, but it will
reduce the number of pest infestations in your house. Cleaning your house after
pest control is also necessary to get rid of roaches from your kitchen in a proper manner and stop their infestation
for a long time.

Keep the Washroom Clean - Most pest control
treatments for apartment’s first check out the infestation in the bathroom. As
the bathroom is a moist area, the chances of infestation are also high at that
place. Keep your bathroom clean and use exhausts to make them dry. Use toilet
cleaner to clean the pot every alternate day. Wash the sink once a week with
disinfectant bathroom cleaner. Keep the shower curtains dry. These small
measures will help you to prevent your place from bugs and other insects.

mosquitoes develop in dirty water. Clean the area around your house and make
sure the drains running outside your premises are cleaned stagnant dirty water

water in buckets while not using them and keep them dry. Stored water also
attracts some pests. The same goes for kitchen utensils. If you have an
air-conditioner that discharges water, try not to keep a vessel under it to
collect water. Use alternatives like a pipe to carry the water out directly or
dry and clean the vessel every day.
4. Dont keep fruits and vegetables out for long
- Fruits and vegetables whenever left outside the fridge overripe quickly and
attract flies and other insects. Some pests like fruit flies are harmless. The
overripe or rotting fruits also attract pests like house flies, ants, and
cockroaches which spread many diseases and carry different viruses with them.

home safe from pests helps a lot when you don’t want to call for a pest
control service.
