No one wants pests in their house. We’re here to help you deal with how to get rid of pests. Best of all our tips are easy and do not include harsh chemicals. We walk you through simple ways to exterminate organically and naturally.

This study shows that countless species of arthropods inhabit most homes in the United States. The arthropods class comprises nearly any bug, such as centipedes, insects, spiders, butterflies, and mites. 

These uninvited guests can negatively affect your house or even carry diseases. While one spider hidden in a dusty room may not harm anyone, bed bugs infestation will surely leave their mark. 

Fortunately, there are tips you can use to easily and quickly eliminate household pests. Some of the tips include:

Use Vinegar And Water Spray To Eliminate Ants

Besides contaminating food through their feces and dirt, ants pose a risk to your property. For instance, carpenter ants can tunnel through wood, leading to structural damage in your house. 

The fastest way to get rid of ants is to mix white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Next, spray this mixture to all ants you find on the way. You can also use dish soap spray, coffee, cornmeal, and cayenne pepper.

Natural Ways To Eradicate Bed Bugs

Bed bugs are familiar and unwelcome bugs you find in the bedroom. Although they don’t transmit diseases, bed bugs feed on human blood. The worst thing is that their bites leave itchy marks on your skin.

Here is how to get rid of bed bugs: Use a hairdryer or steam clean as high temperatures kill bed bugs and their eggs. Furthermore, you can use baking soda as it absorbs the bed bug’s moisture, leading to instant death.

How To Control Fleas

Creating the perfect home requires controlling various household pests, such as fleas. For organic removal, you can start with an herbal flea spray. Begin by vacuuming the entire house and cleaning everything in the hottest washing setting.

Afterward, mix 2 cups of water, 4 cups of vinegar, 2 oz of witch hazel, and 4 oz of lemon juice in a two-liter spray bottle. Spray the mixture on the pet beds, carpets, and fittings. Rosemary and lemon spray also work fine.

Getting Rid Of Cockroaches

Cockroaches are amongst the household pests you can virtually find in any home. They can access your house through pipes or small cracks on the walls. These pests search for shelter in small spaces. So, you can find them in dark drawers and under the skinks.

Although they don’t bite, cockroaches can transmit several diseases like cholera, diarrhea, typhoid fever, and dysentery.

Eliminating Spiders

Spiders are other common household bugs you need to exterminate. Numerous species of spiders exist globally, and some types of spiders are more likely to infest your home than others.

The common species you may encounter include daddy long legs, domestic house spider, black widow spider, and the American house spider. Spiders can be venomous or harmless, based on the species.

The quickest way to get rid of spiders entails the use of citrus. Try rubbing a citrus peel on bookshelves, baseboards, and window sills to repel spiders.

How To Eliminate Household Pests Permanently

Eradicating household pests permanently necessitates comprehensive inspections, multiple treatments, and patience. 

Also, working hand in hand with a pest control service specializing in household insect treatments and utilizing integrated pest management is the first step towards getting rid of pests in your house.
