08.11.2023 16:11
Midges can appear in the house at any time of the year, not just in summer and autumn. It is enough for one of the neighbors to carry out insect treatment or buy a supply of vegetables and fruits.
They multiply quickly, spoil food and nerves. In such a situation, you need to act quickly.
How to get rid of midges in an apartment
1. First, you need to tidy up your apartment and get rid of any spoiled supplies.
2. You need to get rid of the habit of leaving dirty dishes in the sink and the trash can - it should be taken out every morning, regardless of whether it is full or half empty.
3. Clean surfaces from grease stains and other dirt, put food away in the refrigerator, and leave sponges and rags only dry and clean.
4. We clean sinks, remove blockages, tidy up indoor plants, treating them with fungicides if necessary.
5. Clean the cat litter box and do it regularly.
Now you can fight gnats
You can defeat insects using folk methods. That is, without chemicals.
1. Plant geraniums – midges can’t stand the smell and leave the house.
2. Place garlic cloves or horseradish roots in the places where they appear.
3. Use essential oils of lime or tansy, coniferous plants, lavender.
4. Set up a trap from a plastic bottle with apple cider vinegar or wine, wrapping the neck with cling film, leaving holes for the midges to get inside.
And only after folk advice has not helped, you can turn to professional chemistry.
