Australia is home to some of the most dangerous and venomous critters in the world. But luckily, they account for only a small percentage of the calls that pest control services get. Most of the common pests are generally harmless, but they can nonetheless be very annoying.
Here are some pests that are likely to invade your home this summer:
Spiders can be considered as the most cringe-worthy of all pests. They can appear any time during the year, but are most prevalent during rainy seasons. Spiders are not an on-going problem as compared to other types of pests.
Spiders are dangerous and can pose a serious threat to children. A bug spray can help you deal with a spider; however, you may need pest control if a spider infestation becomes a little too repetitive.
Flies can become a big nuisance in warmer climates, but they can be managed by undertaking some practical solutions. This includes not leaving food craps on the table after meals and covering the trash bins.
If the problem is a little too severe, then covering the windows and doors with a net or a screen is also a good idea.
Australia has the perfect climate for cockroaches to thrive, which makes it a big problem for homeowners.
The best way to prevent a roach infestation in your home is to seal all food sources, which includes your garbage cans too. You could use roach sprays to keep the roaches away from your home, but if they become uncontrollable, you will need to hire a pest control service in order to get rid of them. This is particular true for German cockroaches which are very difficult to terminate.
A few ants spotted in some parts of the house are not much of a problem. However, if ants infest your home and form a nest, you won’t be able to get rid of them through any DIY methods.
You will first have to determine the root cause of the infestation and then hire a pest control service to get rid of the nest.
If a termite infestation is not dealt with as soon as it is detected, they would wreck havoc on your home and cause thousands of dollars of loss to your property. Termites have the ability to eat an entire wooden house within 3 months, that’s how dangerous they are. Blistered pieces of wood and termite wings near wooden surfaces are some of the common signs of termite infestations.
You cannot get rid of termites on your own as they tend to hide deep within wooden objects, which is why you will have to hire a pest control service.
