Summer is a season of frolicking and leisure, but it is also when pests like ants, mosquitoes, and flies become more active. With the warmer weather, these pesky insects thrive, making it challenging to keep them out of your home. Pests can be harmful to your property and can cause damage to your property and health problems. 
Therefore, taking proactive measures to keep your home pest-free during summer is essential. 

That's where GTA Inspector's best property inspector in Dubai, can help you prepare your home for summer. Our team of experienced inspectors is dedicated to providing you with a comprehensive report on your potential new home.

Here are some measures to help you keep your home pest-free this summer.

1. Keep Your Home Clean
An intelligent way to keep pests away is to keep your home clean. Regularly clean your kitchen and dining areas, wiping down counters and sweeping floors. Pests are attracted to food scraps, so immediately clean up spills and crumbs. Remember to take out the trash and seal food items in airtight containers.

2. Remove Standing Water
Pests like mosquitoes thrive in standing water, so remove any sources of standing water in and around your home. Check your downspouts to ensure they are not clogged, and fix any leaks or standing water around your home.

3. Seal Cracks and Holes
Pests can easily find their way into your home through tiny cracks and holes. To prevent this:
  1. Seal any cracks and holes you find around your dwelling.
  2. Inspect your windows and doors for entrances, and fill them with caulk or weatherstripping.
  3. Check your home's foundation and walls for cracks and holes, and seal them with silicone or cement.

4. Keep Your Yard Tidy
Every yard is a breeding ground for pests. Remove dead branches and leaves, and keep your lawn mowed. Pests can also hide in tall grass. If you have a compost pile, ensure it's far away from your home and cover.

5. Use Pest-Repellent Plants
Certain plants have natural pest-repelling properties. Planting herbs like lavender, mint, and basil around your home can help keep pests away. You can also plant marigolds known to repel mosquitoes and other pests.

6. Use Pest Control Products
If you've tried all the mentioned measures and still suffer from pest issues, you may need to use pest control products. Various pest control products are on the market, ranging from sprays to baits. Ensure you carefully read the instructions to use the products as directed to ensure they are effective and safe.

7. Hire a Professional Pest Control Service
If you're still struggling with a pest problem, consider hiring a professional pest control service. A professional can help identify the root cause of your pest problem and provide an effective solution. They can also offer ongoing maintenance to prevent pests from returning.

In conclusion, keeping your home pest-free during the summer requires a combination of preventative measures and proactive pest control. Following these tips can help ensure your home remains pest-free and enjoyable throughout the summer.

Pro Tip: Take your time regarding your new home. Trust the experts at GTA Inspectors to give you the peace of mind you deserve. If your home is not examined for years — hire a GTA inspector, one of the maestros of snagging companies in Dubai.
