It\u2019s better to prevent than to put efforts in curing. And when it\u2019s about getting rid of the bugs and pests, it makes even more sense. That\u2019s why I have divided this post into two different parts;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Prevention of pests in your home<\/li>\n<li>Remedies for effective pest control at home<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you do the pest control at home and just forget it, chances are they will return after a few months or even sooner than that.

By cleanliness, I don\u2019t mean to say just <a href=\"https:\/\/www.servicesutra.com\/blog\/cleaning-dusting-common-mistakes\/\">dusting<\/a> and cleaning the floors. It\u2019s more than that. Let\u2019s check it.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure to get your kitchen counter top and other surface cleaned every time you are done with cooking or wash your dishes.<\/li>\n<li>Leftover food particles on kitchen tops or in plates or kitchen sinks could attract cockroaches or ants. So get them cleaned immediately.<\/li>\n<li>In order clean the kitchen areas of your home, apart from the detergent that you already use, you can make your own solutions and cleanser.<\/li>\n<li>To make your own cleanser to prevent pests, pour half cup of vinegar in half cup of water and mix them well and your magical solution is ready. Use this solution when cleaning or spray around affected areas and entry points of ants in the kitchen.<\/li>\n<li>Fix any leakage in faucets or else it will attract ants and other bugs.<\/li>\n<li>Clean drainage (pipe of the sink) regularly to ensure there are no food particles inside. To clean the drainage, you can use baking soda, vinegar and hot water. Pour in some baking soda, followed by vinegar and then pour hot water for better results.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t throw leftover food in open packets, use a trash can\/dustbin which is covered and always keep it covered.<\/li>\n<li>Use air tight containers in your kitchen to keep snack and biscuits etc; else it will attract cockroaches and ants.<\/li>\n<li>Cucumber slices can be used to prevent ants because they don\u2019t like cucumber and if you put a slice at the entry point, you can control them to a good extent.<\/li>\n<li>You may put bay leaves or pepper at the entry point of ants and it will prevent them because ants don\u2019t like the fragrance of these spices.<\/li>\n<li>When cooking, make sure to throw eggs after taking egg white in the bin and close it properly.<\/li>\n<li>One of the most effective ways to clean cockroaches is to prevent them from entering your home and you can do so by sealing cracks near the window or any other entry point. Obviously they won\u2019t enter through main entrance most likely.<\/li>\n<li>Always clean plates immediately don\u2019t stack them. And do basic cleaning of the kitchen when you are done with the cooking.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Pest control and bug treatment is a temporary solution because if you ignore these basic tips and techniques, you can\u2019t imagine having a bug free home. Go and start applying these techniques from today itself.<\/p>\n<h3>Effective remedies for residential pest control<\/h3>\n<p>After learning about prevention of pests let\u2019s check out the remedies and what can be done to get rid of these pests and bugs. There are certain remedies that will help you in your effort to do pest control at home much effectively and with greater results. Some of the most basic remedies that you can apply are as under;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Vinegar is a must to have and you can make different types of solutions using vinegar and spray them to get rid of pests and bugs. It\u2019s a magical I say and not harmful to you.<\/li>\n<li>To control the spiders, you can make a solution of vinegar and water and spray it in the effective area. Spray it at the point where you noticed spider or spider net and they will be gone.<\/li>\n<li>You can make a solution of oil and vodka or any other grain alcohol like gin. To make a solution; add 2 teaspoon of oil and 1 cups of vodka to make a solution. Pour it into a spray jar and spray it properly to the effective areas of your home or where you noticed the bug to get rid of it.<\/li>\n<li>Use boric acid to clean the bathroom, kitchen sink or other moist areas in and around your house. Be informed that boric acid could be toxic so be careful.<\/li>\n<li>Boric acid can be used to clean cockroaches as well.

Stack of old woods near your home could be one such hiding place for them. Check it and get it cleaned.<\/li>\n<li>In order to control house flies, you can simply create a trap. Take a jar, put a little bit of honey on the surface of the jar and make a funnel of paper so that flies can entre from the top. Put it on the jar; make sure it does not touch the bottom surface. Honey attracts the flies, they will enter from the top, once inside, and they won\u2019t be able to come outside and die. This way you can catch lots of flies and empty the jar.<\/li>\n<li>Solutions of mint and bay leaves can be used to get rid of ants. Make a solution and spray it in the area from where they appear, most likely they would appear from the window or kitchen sinks, spray it over there and see the results.<\/li>\n<li>Basil, rosemary or marigolds flower are some of the best plant you can have indoor and outside in your home garden. They are some of the best insect repelling herbs and plants<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Conclusion<\/h2>\n<p>In order to prevent bugs and to make your pest control efforts much effective, you have to prevent them and apply necessary measures to stop them from re-appearing.
