5. Rodents
Rats are not far behind in the race of monsoon pests. These species get an excellent opportunity to enter your homes during the monsoons through drains. Control them before they get uncontrollable with a carefully designed Rodent Control Treatment.
6. Ants
During the rainy season, ants come out of their nests and move to drier places such as your kitchen, which serves them both warmth and food. Keep ants away this rainy season by storing food in air-tight containers and keeping your kitchen clean.
7. Spiders
When it rains, you will notice spiders for sure inside your home. The best way to get rid of spiders during the rainy season is by decluttering your home so that don’t get space for a hideout. Apart from this, try using peppermint or citrus essential oils in a diffuser to repel spiders.
8. Flies
Ever wondered why is there always a surge in the cases of cholera, typhoid, leprosy, dysentery and diarrhoea during monsoons? It is because of the contamination done to our food sources by houseflies. You can get rid of houseflies this rainy season by installing an effective Fly Catcher Machine from HiCare.
9. Earthworms
Blame it on the rains to snatch away the homes of earthworms that live inside the soil. These are farmer’s friends, that come out of their abode and often enter your homes through your garden. You can shoo them away by using insecticides and cleansers.
10. Silverfish
The last on our list of common monsoon insects is silverfish. These can be easily prevented by controlling the humidity levels inside your home. Use a dehumidifier and ensure proper ventilation to prevent silverfish during monsoons.
