Think contaminated food, gnawed-on wires, and a potential for disease transmission.
Their rapid reproduction is particularly troublesome. The pathogens present in their faeces and urine can contaminate food, leading to disease transmission, and their attraction to wood and electrical wiring can potentially result in fire hazards.

Ridding yourself of Pests: How you can Live Bug-Free
Pests are any creatures that you do not want to share your home with, like crickets, ants, roaches, rats and mice. Because many of these pests are so small, it is easy to forget that they are living in the world all around us. The truth of the matter is that even the animals we consider to be pests are all part of this natural world we call home and have every right to it. Their existence can cause unwanted stress and worry for the homeowner. As such, there is always the need to ensure that their invasion of your sanctuary is curbed to stop them from being a nuisance. Below you will find some tips which will help to keep your property a pest free zone.
Prevention is the best way to stop invasions. Pests, just like all living things, get hungry too and will always be out there looking for something to eat. They may also be motivated by a warm, dry place to shelter, particularly during the cold winter months. If you can address these two factors, it is far less likely you will develop a pest problem. Cleanliness will help to deter animals in search of food. Items should be kept in secure packaging and storage containers, in either a refrigerator or kitchen cupboard. Never leave leftovers in an accessible place, and empty your waste and rubbish on a daily basis. If you do not leave food out, you should not end up with pests such as rodents. Even if they come into your home, they will find no reason to linger and create a nest.
Keeping pests at bay is often as easy as making sure that your home is clean. keep your floors clean and wipe away all spills as soon as they happen. Put used dishes in the dishwasher so that they are not left sitting out. Many insects also seek out moisture. In addition, if you notice a leak, make sure the situation is rectified.
Pests often enter the home by way of small cracks and holes. Plug up spaces and crevices that seemingly offer easy passage into your home. Use a sealant or caulking on all openings to prevent pests from making a way into your home.
A tidy outside space will also deter animals. Sweep up any plant and leaf debris, and never stack piles of wood near your house. Make sure your pet is treated for fleas and ticks so that they do not become a host for these little creatures.
It is possible for you to enjoy a relatively pest-free existence if you follow the advice found in this article and remain vigilant about taking care of your home. Cleanliness is key, and if you are able to do that, the rest will fall into place.
You may well need a professional if your problem is multiple pests in the house.
