Through the targeted use of physical and biological methods or by resorting to insecticides as a last resort, pests such as wasps, ants, cockroaches, and others can be combated effectively. The quantities of insecticides are kept to a minimum through careful selection of the process and the active ingredients, technically correct application as well as additional preventive measures. Good knowledge of the biology of pests and the assessment of possible risks and dangers to health, products, and materials as well as the environment are necessary for careful planning of insect control.
In general, you should pay attention to good environmental hygiene. Regular cleaning removes food residue, which is an important food source for many insects. It is also important that waste containers are emptied regularly and that waste and compost are not stored in or near the house. To prevent contamination of food, you can pack it in airtight containers (e.g. glass). If you buy second-hand goods, check them for signs of insects (drill damage to wood, insect remains, traces of droppings, etc.). If you are often plagued by flying insects (flies, mosquitoes, wasps) it is worth installing an insect screen. Make sure that the grid has a mesh size that is small enough.
No, silverfish are not pests and are automatically attracted to high humidity. Silverfish may therefore indicate a humidity problem. Make sure to properly and regularly ventilate the rooms concerned. In the bathroom, in particular, care must be taken that no moisture can accumulate in cracks and joints, as silverfish like to hide there. Repair and maintain silicone seals to eliminate silverfish. If the problem persists or silverfish appear in large numbers, it is worth consulting a pest control professional.
If you are staying in an unfamiliar environment (hotel, youth hostel, etc.) you can check the premises for bed bugs in advance. The main indicators of bed bug infestation are:
Bloodstains on linen
Dark bed bug droppings on bedding, mattresses, slatted frames, or in hiding places
Live or dead bugs, larval skins or eggs
The smell of coriander or almonds (in case of severe infestation)
Bites from previous visitors (often, former residents or guests of a room will report bed bugs during recessions on Google or other platforms)
If one or more of these signs appear, a bed bug infestation may be prevalent. However, bed bugs can also occur in rooms without these tips. To remain vigilant, you can minimize a bed bug infestation by doing the following: Don't unpack your luggage in the bedroom after overnight stays. It is best to unpack suitcases in your laundry room or outdoors. If neighbors tell you about inexplicable bites, you should also keep an eye on the situation. Bed bugs can migrate through cracks and crevices into adjacent rooms and bite their occupants. When buying second-hand products, lookout for signs of bed bugs (described above).
