G’day folks, Glenn Mott from Mount Lawley Pest Control here. Perth summers are known for their scorching heat, and unfortunately, this can create ideal conditions for certain pests to thrive.
Here’s what you need to be aware of:
- Cockroaches: With the hot weather, cockroaches will be more active and searching for cool, moist places to hide.
- Ants: These pests are always looking for food and water, and the hot weather can increase their activity levels.
- Flies: Summer is fly season, and these pesky insects can be a real nuisance.
- Mosquitoes: With the warmer weather comes an increased risk of mosquito-borne diseases.
Here’s how to keep your home pest-free during the summer:
- Proper Sanitation: Keep your kitchen and other areas clean and free of food crumbs and spills.
- Reduce Moisture: Ensure proper drainage around your home and fix any leaking pipes.
- Seal Entry Points: Seal any cracks and crevices around your home’s foundation, windows, and doors.
- Use Insect Repellent: Use insect repellent when spending time outdoors.
- Insect Screens: Ensure insect screens have been provided to windows and doors, and ensure there are no holes or tears
