Pests that Plague Homes and Apartments
There is such a long list of pests that bother homeowners and renters. Here is our list of the worst of the worst.
1 Bed Bugs
Nobody wants to discover they have a bed bug infestation. These are some of the most costly pests to remove, and the process often includes tenting the building.
2 Fleas
Perhaps the most annoying pest of all is the dreaded flea. Fleas occur throughout the year, though their populations dwindle in the colder months of the year. Never fear though, their eggs hatch in the spring, and the population explodes to pestering levels for humans and pets.
3 Mosquitoes
It is indeed a close race with fleas as to which pest is most annoying, and nothing keeps you up at night like a mosquito. These are flies with a straw-like mouth that jab right into your flesh. If that is not bad enough, they are there to drink your blood.
4 Spiders
Spiders are mostly beneficial insects as they catch and eat many pestering flying insects such as mosquitoes. However, nobody wants to live in a house full of spiders. Spiders invade homes and apartments, even those units that are high in the sky.
5 Common Flies
There is nothing ordinary about flies, and they are perhaps the order of insects that spread the most disease. They can spread shigellosis, typhoid fever, Cholera, E. coli, and even malaria. Many flies regurgitate what they eat when they land. So, if a fly lands on your plate, you might consume whatever they last ate. That process is how they spread disease.
