Few townsfolk regularly attack cockroaches, so no, more people complain about the appearance in homes of any other insects. Especially often there are bugs. The apartments are clean, the landladies carefully follow the order. But no, no, and there are insects, frightening ladies and causing disgust in men. It's unpleasant when bugs appear in the apartment. "How to get rid of them?" - women ask. "Maybe they are also poisonous?" - think of men. It is difficult to answer without seeing an insect. In addition, beetles in apartments may be different, although poisonous practically do not occur. They have different habitats, in different ways they enter the dwelling. Let's consider those who more often than others prevent to live easy to townspeople.
"Carpet" beetles in apartments
Sometimes in the houses appear beetles, covered with brown, black or white scales. Sometimes it's hard to even notice them: they can be from one to four millimeters in size. It is difficult to destroy them: no matter how much you spray the poisonous liquids, the beetles do not become smaller. Most likely, these are antennas: beetles. In Russia there are about one hundred species, some of them can be found in urban apartments. In the world - more than 600. Even the name shows that "love" these insects. However, they do not just eat the skin. Horse hair, fur coats, carpets and carpets, meat and fish - all this and many other items and products can destroy these beetles. In apartments they often live in fur coats, woolen things, carpeting. They can only be withdrawn in one way: to destroy white, barely noticeable larvae, most often hiding among the nap. Even in the apartments live dust mites that feed on scales of dead human skin. They are many in carpets, cushions of down, soft furniture. They are so small that they can not be seen with the naked eye. They do not bite, but can cause allergies. That's why you need to post things twice a year on the street: in the winter to blot out, in the summer - to fry in the sun.
Those who live in the kitchen
Small beetles in the apartment, photos of which are in the article, can choose their place of residence kitchen. Most likely, they got into the house from the store, along with beans or peas, dried herbs, cereals. If this beetle is very small, brown in color and is found in products, then, most likely, it is Surinamese flies. It is difficult to deduce it. First, he easily pretends to be dead. Good housewives throw the corpse into garbage, it comes to life and returns. Secondly, females lay off an incredible number of larvae that survive on anything. Often, such bugs, "arrived" from the store with a manga, in a month can turn a plastic jar into a sieve. They say that if you sift, and then blot or burn damaged products, you can eat them. But for many it is unacceptable, all the affected products should be thrown away, then thoroughly washed with tare, shelves, kitchen. And to prevent the emergence of "kitchen" bugs of any kind can be as follows:
- Keep everything in glass jars with tight covers, preferably in the cold.
- Regularly review the supplies, timely destroying those that have already attracted beetles.
- Ventilate and dry the kitchen.
