I use white chalk around doors and windows to keep ants out, they won’t cross the line.

I learned that house flies are dirtier pests than rats or cockroaches. Gross!

Keep your house clean of any stray food and keep food in tight containers.

I don’t have a tip to share, but we seem to always have a problem with earwigs every summer. They really creep me out! I would like to read a tip on how to keep them out of the house.

I have just started to leave sea salt on my window sill and we have seen less ants than we saw before.

I learned that mice can fit through a hole the size of a dime. Scary to think about!

Oh wow, I discovered that house flies are dirtier than rodents or cockroaches. I am horrified! that is disgusting! My tip is to use apple cider vinegar and dish detergent for fruit fly traps.

No stories or tips yet. We’ve been lucky, we haven’t really had a pest problem, a few spiders here and there but that’s it. We’ve been fortunate I guess because there are tons of spiders outside where I live. Guess it’s time to start taking preventative measures to keep them outside!

I learned that house flies are more contaminated than cockroaches! So gross 😛

I have been using peppermint oil around my doorway and I do feel that we have less ants in the house this year.
Laura
I can’t think of any household pest prevention stories or tips, which I guess is probably a good thing 🙂

I learned that mice can fit through a dime-sized hole! How interesting!
Maryann D.
One surprising fact to me is that mice can fit in the smallest cracks and get into your home that way.
Robin Abrams
I am surprised at the Managing other insect populations will reduce spiders’ food source, thereby reducing their chances of survival in the home.
Ann Fantom
I took the quiz and learned that house flies are dirtier pests than rats or cockroaches.
