The 5 Most Unpopular Bugs in Homes

Pests are pretty much the worst creatures out there. Having an infestation of them in your home is even worse. They cause a whole load of damage to our properties each year, cause physical harm and even spread diseases.

Here is a list of the pests we consider to be the top 5 most unpopular bugs!

Bed Bugs

Our bed is a safe haven, where we go at the end of each day to relax and have a good night’s rest. So it’s everyone’s worst nightmare to be bitten by a pest while they’re sleeping. Over the past few years, the bed bug population has risen drastically, and many homeowner and business owners have experienced a full-blown infestation. Bed bugs are elusive, and hard to exterminate. DIY treatments will not be effective against them, and you have to make a conscious effort to prevent an infestation from occurring. It’s best to seek the help of a residential bed bug service professional.

Cockroaches

I think everyone hates cockroaches. They are certainly icky, and can also threaten our health. Cockroaches spread bacteria and germs to any surface, food or water source they come into contact with. This is how we get infected by them. They can also trigger serious allergic reactions and worsen the symptoms of asthma.

Flies

They are so annoying, especially when we’re trying to enjoy some rare sunny weather. Flies also contaminate anything they come into contact with, including food. One touch off a fly can spread more than 100 different types of germs, which is really gross! Keeping your home clean and taking out any rubbish will help you avoid having flies in your home.

Lice

Although they don’t affect your health, lice are common sources of unease among parents. They are easily spread throughout schools, but are very treatable with products you can buy over the counter.

Mosquitoes

The bite of a mosquito is the most horrible thing about them. Red, itchy welts on your skin are the last thing you want. In some areas, they can also spread dangerous diseases.

If you think you have a pest infestation, you should always call in a pest control company to help you get rid of the problem before it becomes too severe.
