To save time, most of us stock up on food at home and accumulate food at home that can be a great attraction to various pests.
During the summer, when it rains, especially after the heat, the ants begin to move to us. Before you get into a chemical fight, try the old methods. These creatures send explorers before the invasion. It remains only to find their way in the house and pour cloves, dried mint or chili on it. If they don\’t change their minds, we will set a trap for them. In half a liter of warm water, put 1 tablespoon of sugar and 2 tablespoons of yeast. Divide the prepared mixture from the jar into several lids and place it in the place where the ants are present. According to the advice of our grandmothers, the contents of the cabinet should be protected with a bouquet of dried mint, roux or tansy.
The trap still works most reliably. As a bait, it is enough to use hazelnuts or bread crust. If you are in favor of a more gentle intervention, you can choose a variant of the trap that traps live mice, so if you have enough mice from the house have a home background, it will quickly bring friends, and they will multiply very quickly. Therefore, you need to intervene immediately. Do not resort to the fact that you have a dog and a cat in the house. He and the mouse will be friends. Do not use poison, especially if there are small children or pets in the house.
When spring comes, flies begin to attack us. Putting a net on the window minimizes the amount of them. Where you can not, put a pot of mint and lavender in the window. For some reason, flies do not like blue, so let\’s try to apply blue fabrics (curtains, tablecloths) in the summer of the house.
Moles of all specieshate light and movement. Both wardrobe and food moths prefer unventilated air, so they are discouraged by the windy and even draft environment. Dried lavender flowers, hung in pantry or cupboard, not only smell the room, but also repel moths.
