Do you have an issue where fruit flies keep appearing? They may be living in your sink drains. Put a bit of plastic wrap across the drain for a while to determine whether or not fruit flies appear. If fruit flies still appear, scrub around your drain after pouring boiling water. This will reduce the frequency of fruit flies in your home.
Never buy a house until it has been inspected first. Certain signs of infestation are easy to recognize, but keep in mind that you have no way of knowing what kind of pest is hiding under the home or in the insulation until you stay in the home for a few days.
Try using pesticides around the foundation of your home. Windows, doors, foundations and steps should all be treated with the product. As you are spraying, check surfaces for cracks and nooks that can be the point of entry for pests. You should then seal off these places with caulk or whatever filler you prefer.
Screens in your home should be repaired to keep out flying insects. Screens are effective at keeping out both flying and crawling pests. Fix holes that are now part of your screens.
Now that you are armed with this advice, you can create a plan for eliminating pests from your home. Start a war with them now using the information you’ve read. Before long, you’ll have control of your own home again and you won’t have to worry about those darn pests anymore.
