It is usually immensely easier to prevent a pest problem than to eliminate it.
Some prevention tips:
-Choose one area of your house to eat. This way, food messes will be easily isolated in one room. Then, they can be easily spotted and cleaned quickly.
-Clean up food messes immediately. Sugars and other foods can attract bugs such as ants and flies fast, so time is of essence if you want no bug problems.
-Store food in plastic containers that will keep bugs out 100% of the time and also won’t attract them.
-Find natural ways to repel pests, for example citronella.
-Patch up any crevices where they can enter.
