Got Tips on How To Keep Your House... 1 Year, 10 Months ago Karma: 1
Do you have any tips on how to keep your house free from rats, cockroaches and other insects?

My aunties house got lots of rats on her house. What do you thin is the best way to eliminate them?

Get some predators. Cats, dogs and ferrets can be used to control a home infestation. Cats will instinctively attack rodents (and possibly bring their severed heads to your pillow), and they're fun to pet, too (the cats, not the severed mouse heads).

No Doubt. We had a home in the country and a barn and with our herd of cats saw very few live rats or mice.

Try rat poison and traps if you don't want to have pets although I think it is the most efficient solution. The house centipede will get you rid of the cockroaches however I doubt you want him in your house.

A long time ago, our house is free from rats, because we have plenty of cats in our house.

And now that our cats are nowhere to be found, our house have plenty of rats, and we planned to have many cats again,.

Use a strong pesticide spray the whole house with a very strong mixture of pesticide of course upon doing this you must leave the house at least 24 hours you'll be surprise on what you'll see upon coming back. In order to prevent rats and cockroach to stay in the house you have to make sure that your house is always clean always throw left overs and get a trash can with a cover and always make sure to close it.
