How to get rid of PESTS inside the house?

[domestic diva]

Nabasa ko lang 'to. Haven't tried it though. Also heard that corn meal helps too.

Not everybody likes cucumbers. You may be interested to learn that ants hate cucumbers, especially cucumber peels. You’ll especially appreciate that fact if you want to get rid of them. Just spread some cucumber peels – the more bitter, the better – where ants enter your home and they should get the message. Consider cucumber the “anti-welcome” mat for ants.


Cucumbers are one example of natural pest control. It’s using natural and generally non-toxic ingredients to repel or get rid of bugs including ants, wasps, mites, moths, flies and other insects.

Thanks sis domestic diva for sharing the cucumber peel! Love it.

Napthalene balls seems to be effective sa house namin. Less cockroaches 

[Anewme]

^yang napthalene balls ba pwede ba yan ilagay sa mga sulok sulok ng upuan at sa kitchen? kasi diba sa mga cabinets lang sya usually sa lagayn ng mga damit?

and sa mosquito ano pa bang ibang effective kasi kagatin ako ng lamok as in grabe natry ko na yung hhn na citronella, off lotion, guard, katol etc di pa din nawawala at lagi akong nakakagat ng lamok.

we are living in a condo unit sa 9th floor for 3 months, di pa namin napapa iarcon [textspeak!] unit kasi ok naman ang flow ng air, weird lang kasi may kuliglig sa unit namin. di ko alam kung saan nanggaling. ano ba effective pantanggal sa kanila. di ko feel ang ingay, parang probinsya...

We have a rat problem right now. Kainis kasi we live in a condo unit and kahit we religiously clean and we don't keep nabubulok na trash, almost every night nagwawala yung dog namin kasi hinuhunting yung daga. hehe. hindi niya nga lang mahuli. I've tried the racumin paste and the mouse trap na malaki pero matalino yung rat. Nilalagyan ko ng bait beside the racumin paste pero talagang hindi niya kinakain yung paste. I guess yan talaga problem pag nasa condo kasi kahit malinis yung unit mo, kung yung katabi naman eh super dumi, pwedeng dumalaw yung mga pests. need to get rid of this rat na talaga!

[greenpease05]

hay ako napagod na rin sa kakahanap talaga ng paraan to stop pest from coming it to  the house.

Now I do these to shoo them away or not to invite more of these pests.

I don't leave any left food on the table ke ano pa yan.

No eating sa living room , bedroom or computer area.

Kitchen trash bin is always emptied and washed every night.

All plates and pans should be washed  and tucked away.

I always asked the girls ( kasama sa house) not to leave even a single rice or moo moo sa lababo.

 
Mind you we dont have a gate and we have open lot infront of us kaya prone kami sa mga pests plus our kapitbahay pa di ba?

Since we transferred to this house and  practiced this simple things  inside wala kaming ipis or daga man lang promise.

sis you might want to try yung PEST SHIELD pest eliminator.. yung plug in device.. you can buy it sa ACE hardware.. its really effective.. kasi we have this sa room namin kasi me and hubby are scared of rodents hehe any rodents tapos one day accidentally naunplug pala, biglang may dumalaw na bibwit.. when i saw it chineck ko kagad kung bakit nakapasok yun pala nga nakaunplug tapos nung pinlug ko ulit ayun nataranta siya ever at lumabas ng room

[babyjapnurse01]

^ to be honest, hindi naman nagwowork yung mga ganun, prolly kaya nagpanic yung bubwit is because nakakita ng tao. we used to have those around our house, and meron parin talagang mga bubwit na umaaligid, so its safe to say that the gadget doesnt really drive away yung mga daga.

ito yung tips na natutunan ko over time.

1. For Rodents/Mice -- Racumin (grain form) is the most effective, make sure you dont touch the grains when you sprinkle it sa areas around the house. Kahit naka-gloves, once maamoy kasi ng daga na may naka-hawak na nung bait, hindi na nila gagalawin.

2. For Ants -- we use Terro Ant Bait, nabibili sya sa DIY/Handyman, they have this in bottles or yung pre-filled plastic containers na pwede ilagay all over the house, I personally prefer yung pre-filled plastic than yung pinapatak, medyo malagkit kasi to, and nakaka-attract ng ants, few days after you put the baits around the house, makikita nyo na pupuntahan ng ants yung bait, few more days, wala na kayong makikitang ants.

3. For Mosquitoes -- we purchased yung yellow na bulb na anti-mosquito daw, i forgot the brand, thats what we use sa ilaw in front of doors, so far effective naman. yung anti-mosquito treated na mesh works also, kaso medyo inconvenient coz it wears off din over time.

sa ipis, we dont see ipis often sa bahay, minsan lang may mga naliligaw, so I have no idea how to get rid of ipis. haha!
