Common bugs we find here in our Delta homes are flies, ants, spiders, silverfish, sow bugs, clothe moths, carpet beetles and more – but there are a few ways to eradicate and keep them out. Inspect your windows and doors, and seal any holes or cracks. Before leaving the kitchen at night, don’t forget to clean it up as most insects are nocturnal. Put food that isn’t going into the fridge into tightly sealed containers. Keep your floors and counter tops clean. Also, insects are always looking for water, especially silverfish, ants and sow bugs – so always have leaky faucets and pipes fixed asap. Empty your garbage cans and vacuum at least once a week (preferably twice a week). Piles of magazines or newspapers attract silverfish and cockroaches so toss out what you don’t need. If flies are an issue, you can use insect control products that are safe around children and pets.
