Change is inevitable and with each change comes new challenges. As for homeowners, you face the risk of new pests cropping up as the weather changes. Winter has slowly gone away and most pests take retreat during this time. However, they will be back now to show their ugly faces.
Welcome summer, welcome household pests! Along with the fun and sun you will receive during these months, the prospect of having pests in your homes is very high. The temperatures will increase this summer as well as the number of these uninvited guests – PESTS. It becomes tougher to keep these guys at bay. Not just are they finding shelter in your homes, but those cold-blooded creatures will find it easier to reproduce in this hot season. Some very popular summertime pests you should guard yourself against are cockroaches, rats/rodents, ants, mosquitoes, flies and others.
Prevention is Better Than Cure
You must’ve surely heard of ‘Prevention is better than cure’. There are plenty of reasons why these pests enter your homes in summer. You can thus try and eliminate these reasons one by one, and ensure you remain pest-free this summer in India. Main reasons for pests to come home in summers:
- Food
- Shelter
- Water
Block out all of these three elements and you will have considerably fewer problems. Next time you cook dinner at home, please ensure you don’t keep the plates out overnight. Food crumbs lying around your kitchen attract insects like cockroaches and rats. These guys carry harmful diseases and are also said to cause asthma in children. Cut out the places for shelter that you have to offer and you will face much fewer issues this summer.
All cracks and crevices in your walls must be sealed or filled up. Termites, bed bugs and cockroaches will reduce considerably. If there are existing bugs in these places, they will be killed. Also, there’s no room for new pests to come and seek shelter.
Just like food crumbs, the same goes for water. It’s imperative that your house always remains dry. Try to fix leaky taps and faucets in your homes. After a shower, ensure you leave the washrooms dry and don’t leave water lying in buckets. These become breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Letting them reproduce in your homes right before the monsoons are as good as suicide as they will strike soon, bringing along deadly diseases like malaria, chikungunya, dengue and much more.
