If you are having an issue with stink bugs, remember not to stomp or smash on them. Doing so will release a foul odor into your home. Instead, use a vacuum cleaner to suction them up. It is important, however, that you change the bag after doing so or it will begin to smell as well.

 

Never step on a cockroach to kill it. When you step on it, it can release its egg sac. The eggs can then be transferred from the bottom of your shoes throughout the carpets and rugs in your home. The eggs survive in your carpet until they are ready to hatch, leaving you with a much bigger roach problem.

 

Having mice in your home can be a real turn off, not mentioning they carry diseases. In order to exterminate mice in a family-friendly way, use disposable mouse traps. Line the mouse traps with peanut butter to attract mice. After the mouse takes the bait, the mouse trap should slam shut, and you can safely dispose.

 

If you have seen a lot of brown recluse spiders, get some sticky traps. The spiders are poisonous, and they like to hide in deep holes where chemicals cannot reach them. They tend to hunt for food overnight. Optimal places for traps include behind furniture and near walls.

 

If you are apprehensive about using chemical pest control in your home, try traps instead. Physical traps work to attract the pest and then trap it. Some work like traditional mouse traps that snap closed and kill the pest, while others involve a sticky sheet that adheres the pest to the sheet so you can remove it from your home.

 

Do not leave any food out or unsealed and make sure that you clean up any crumbs or food scraps. Bugs, especially roaches love to get into food scraps that have been left out. Put used food in a tightly sealed container or in a baggie that bugs cannot break into.

 

If you live on a farm and have a problem with mice, or even rats, consider getting a couple outdoor cats to provide natural pest control. Make sure the cats have not been declawed, and have access to every part of the outdoor buildings. Make sure to provide food and water to the cats because they will still catch mice even if they are not hungry.

 

Check the plumbing in your house, if you have pests. You need to double check to be positive the sinks and drains around your home are not clogged. The things that build up in drains can be a feast to cockroaches and flies. Clear the drains and then do a regular monthly checkup.

 

With your building empty of creatures you don't wish living there, you'll find it's far more enjoyable to be within. Everyone you know will be pleased with the results. Just use the tips from this article and you should have your building cleared out in a short matter of time.
