Insects come in a huge variety of shapes and sizes, most of them highly unpleasant. In warmer areas, such as the southern and west coast states, insects are present year round, and some of them can be dangerous. In order to keep your home bug free and to avoid the cost of doing battle with these pests, there are several things you must watch for on a daily basis.
Keep Dirty Dishes Out of the Sink
Dirty dishes with stuck-on food are an open invitation for cockroaches and ants to come feast. Don’t leave dirty dishes in the sink overnight and keep your countertops clean.
Cockroaches often climb up drainpipes in search of food, so keep your sink traps locked overnight and bleach your sink after washing the dishes.
