4 Ways to protect your home from Pests & Bugs

4 Ways to protect your home from Pests & Bugs

Summer… ahhh, the long days, cool breezes, beach holidays, and warm nights. Queensland is renowned for its wonderful summers! But there’s also a downside - Pests and Termites are at their most active too!

We know and accept that pests are part of everyday life but the last thing we need is them invading our homes!

Here are some tips to help keep them at bay while you enjoy your time with the family:

House Fly

  1. Check your window/door screens for holes/gaps/tears, and also check under the door frame too. Fix these up to minimise the influx of pests but allow the cool breeze through. You may want to add draft stoppers to doors that have a gap from the frame to the floor.
  2. Do an external clean-up - clear any unwanted timbers, and leaf piles, replace leaking taps, and remove any areas where water can pool and be left stagnant. This will reduce places for insects and pests to breed in.
  3. Do an internal clean up, too - remove clutter, clean out the kitchen cupboards & the fridge of all excess/opened food, clean under the dishwasher and fridge, and give your bins a good wash. This will help to deter insects and pests harbouring in those areas.
  4. Do regular pest control treatment and termite inspections. It’s about controlling the pest population, not about leaving chemicals to keep them away.
