Gnats

Gnats, also known as fruit flies or vinegar flies, are small, flying insects that are commonly found in homes and businesses. They are attracted to moist environments, such as kitchens and bathrooms.

In order to control and prevent gnat infestations, it is important to keep food and garbage stored properly, eliminate standing water, and regularly clean and vacuum to remove food crumbs and other debris. It’s also important to keep the humidity levels low, and use of insecticides can be effective. In some cases, professional pest control services can also provide regular treatments and monitoring to ensure that any infestations are quickly and effectively eliminated.

Moths

Moths are a common pest in many homes and businesses. They are attracted to light and are often found near windows and other sources of light. They can be a nuisance and can also cause damage to clothing, carpets, and other fabrics. Moths are known for their ability to reproduce quickly and can become a problem if left untreated. They are also known to feed on natural fibers like wool, cashmere, silk, and feathers.

To control and prevent moth infestations, it is important to regularly vacuum and clean, including areas where moths may lay their eggs such as, closets, pantries, and basements. It’s also important to keep a check on damp and humid areas in your home, as they are more likely to attract moths. Storing clothes and fabrics in airtight containers or sealed plastic bags can also help prevent infestations. The use of pheromone traps, sticky paper, and moth balls can also be effective in trapping and killing adult moths. In some cases, professional pest control services can also provide regular treatments and monitoring to ensure that any infestations are quickly and effectively eliminated.
