Ways to Control Insects

All methods of getting rid of insects can be divided into three groups:

1. Folk methods.

2. Special mechanical and chemical.

These are products that can be purchased in specialized stores for self-use:

• Traps with poisonous baits – set in places where insects congregate and wait for the arthropods to crawl inside and be poisoned by the bait.
• Gels and powders – treat pest distribution areas and hard-to-reach places with chemicals: sewer and ventilation openings, cracks, risers in bathrooms, corners, baseboards behind large furniture, etc.
• Sprays and aerosols – after isolating food and covering things and furniture with a protective film on the premises, spray problem areas where insects may live.
• Perform the procedure with a respirator, gloves, and special clothing. And after self-disinfestation, be sure to ventilate the room and perform a wet cleaning.
• Ultrasonic and electromagnetic repellers – place them in the area where the parasites were noticed: the repellers will emit waves that will kill insects.

These special tools allow you to get rid of relatively large populations of pests in the apartment. But keep in mind that they rarely lead to the elimination of arthropod eggs.

3. Professional ones.

Professional indoor pest control has the greatest effect. This method allows you to get rid of both adults and eggs of any arthropods.

Professional extermination of moths, cockroaches, spiders, fleas, bedbugs, and other harmful creatures on the premises is carried out using special equipment: sprayers, and generators of cold and hot fog.

An individual control option must be selected for each type of insect. The chemical, trap, or repellent used must be designed for a specific category of parasites, otherwise, you will either not achieve any effect or get a short-term result with the reappearance of harmful creatures. For example, insecticides are most effective for eliminating mosquitoes, cockroaches, fleas, and moths, and acaricides are most effective for fighting bedbugs and ticks.

• The scale of the spread of parasites.

The greater the concentration of arthropods, the stronger the effect of special products should be.

• Areas of insect concentration.
