5 Natural Solutions For Getting Rid of Pests

March 23, 2021 //  by Geoff

There are all sorts of pests that can make their way into your home. In some cases, you may require calling pest control, while in other cases, you may be able to get rid of them all on your own. However, using dangerous chemicals by yourself without the help of a professional can end badly. If you have children or pets, insecticides can seriously harm someone that you’re living with.

It’s in your best interest to try and get rid of critters without having to rely on chemicals at all. The great news is that there are natural ways to get rid of pasts that don’t require any harmful substances at all. Take a look at some of the best natural solutions for getting rid of pests in your home.

 

Basil

One of the oldest tricks for repelling flies is putting basil around your house. Pots of basil throughout your home can keep flies away from areas that you don’t want them coming into. For example, the kitchen is a great place to put several basil plants in or in your dining room where you eat. The idea is to keep the basil scent flowing so that the flies stay out.

Citrus

Citrus works for repelling insects as well. Spiders, in particular, are not fans of lemons, oranges, or limes. Consider spraying a citrus mix all around the areas where you’d like spiders to disappear from. You can also wipe surfaces with the same solution to deter the creepy critters.

Vinegar

Believe it or not, vinegar isn’t just good for fish and chips. Vinegar is a fantastic way to get rid of an ant problem. A water and vinegar solution can be sprayed anywhere that ants are present. It will throw off their scent and make it impossible for them to navigate back to their nest. The end result? The ants go away.

Borax

Borax is a fantastic all-natural solution for getting rid of several different kinds of critters. Fleas, in particular, are difficult to get rid of without harmful chemicals. However, spraying a Borax solution on floors, windows, or other crevices in your home can poison and battle fleas for good. You’ll be happy to know that roaches are also deterred from Borax.

Dish Soap

If you have a fruit fly problem, then you may be at your wit’s end. It can seem impossible to get rid of them. However, dish soap sometimes does the trick. Simply fill a glass full of vinegar and water, and top it off with dishwashing liquid.

The fruit flies will be attracted into the glass, but once they hit the water, they won’t be able to fly out since their legs will stick to the dish soap.
