As summer approaches it's quickly becoming that time of the year when the heat encourages spiders to thrive. While a common occurrence in Australia, many people still do not know how to deal with or prevent these creepy crawlers from entering their homes. Preventing spiders is important, particularly if you have pets or young kids. After all, many are deadly and can quickly land you in the emergency room if you're not careful.
At A1 Professional Pest Control, we come across many creative solutions to preventing bug infestations, ranging from the obvious to the obscene. In order to make sure you're prepared and well-educated, today we present you with 3 easy tips for spider prevention.
1. Keep your home tidy
If you keep your home clean, spiders will have fewer places to hide. Keeping your clutter to a minimum is a great way to improve the quality of the environment and thus reduce the chances of finding critters in your home. Make sure to have a regular cleaning routine and clean any spills straight away. Food might attract other pests, which subsequently attract spiders. Spiders also like to hide under rocks and woodpiles, but they may try to move inside. For this reason, you may want to try moving plants from the side of your house.
2. Seal your home
The best way to prevent spiders from entering your home is to keep them from coming in in the first place. Patch up any holes and gaps, replace broken fly-screens and cover your vents. Remember, spiders like moist damp spaces like kitchens and bathrooms so take care of those too.
3. Call the professionals
If you're still worried about spiders in your home or if you want a better solution, make sure to call the professionals. DIY and natural market solutions found on Google will not solve your problems. To get results, you need to call the professionals at A1 Professional Pest Control. We can install in ground-bait stations as early preventative devices as well as other pest solutions.
