Some people experience an abundance of Ladybugs at their home during the spring and fall months.  For these people it can be hard to concentrate on their day to day activities because the Ladybugs are so distracting.  Ladybugs are not normally bothersome; however they cause people much distress.  Ladybugs can leave a foul odor or get into vents and window seals.  All of these things make it hard to maintain a clean house and enjoy your home. 

The method of killing Ladybugs is not easy; therefore it is easier to prevent them.  When killing Ladybugs, chemicals and fancy machines are sometimes used.  In bad cases an exterminator must be called.  All of this can be avoided by simply following these simple steps to prevent Ladybugs.

1. Keep distance between your garden and your house.  Ladybugs are attracted to plants that are in a garden; therefore they will be attracted to your garden.  If your garden is close to your house then you will more than likely have an infestation of Ladybugs.

2. Keep your screen and sliding doors tightly shut and sealed up to prevent the ladybugs from entering the house through cracks.

3. If all else fails then chemicals can be used.  Some people recommend that you spray chemicals around your house and the Ladybugs will not cross the barrier.  These chemicals can consist of liquids or powders.

All of these methods will help you prevent Ladybugs from entering your home. Ladybugs can be as an annoyance as termites. Getting rid of  termites is as easy as preventing Ladybugs. As previously stated it is important to remember it is harder to get rid of Ladybugs than it is to prevent them.

Here are a few tips you can try to keep spiders away from your home:

1. Use a spider-killing chemical around the outside of your house to provide a barrier against spider invasion. If you have pets, make sure you buy pet friendly chemicals or that you block any areas where you have placed the chemical so your pets will not have access to it.

2. Knock down any spider webs when you see them hanging in doorways and corners. Destroy the web materials in the event the web contains eggs.

3. Eliminate any unnecessary storage where spiders could hide and live.

4. Do away with places in your closets where spiders can hide, like old shoe boxes.

It is not always possible to ascertain whether or not the spider you see is a biting one or not, and if it is poisonous or not. Some spiders are beneficial and eat other insects, others are just plain scary! It is good to be familiar with the spiders in your midst, and not to get too friendly with them! See if you can find a local guide advising you about the spider population in your area; a local garden shop or hardware store are a good place to look for both information and bug treatments.

Try a few of these tips to make your property less attractive to termites: 

1. As soon as you find a property that you want to buy, check on having the property and structure checked for evidence of termite presence, past or present, on the property.

2. Be certain that there is a termite inspection clause in your purchase contract.

3. Keep your property under a termite protection contract at all times.

4. Do not store wood or other moist things near or especially against your house. Termites coming up from the ground can use that stored wood as a way of chewing into your structure.

5. Always use treated wood when building a long term structure on your property.

Termites cause more damage to homes and property than fire or earthquake. They are a serious threat to property and property values.  Be sure you can recognize one when you see it so that you can take appropriate measures before they move in for good! They eat like every meal is a Thanksgiving feast!
