Always begin by removing the gnat's source of food. Toss rotting fruit, place new fruit in the fridge, and switch the soil of your houseplants.
The best way to get rid of gnats in the kitchen is by baiting and trapping them with something sweet. Combine water with a few drops of dish soap, apple cider vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of sugar into a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and poke small holes to trap the gnat in the liquid.
Ticks love conditions where humidity is 90% or higher, so most ticks will die within a few hours to a few days in the average climate-controlled house.
The hardest ant to get rid of is the pharaoh ant. Although small, pharaoh ants can spread infections in hospitals and are known to transmit infectious diseases in schools, apartment complexes, and office buildings. For this reason, they’re best handled by pest control professionals.
Scorpions may be native to desert climates, but they are nocturnal and like to find shelter in dark, cool places during the day. Your home has many ideal spots to conceal themselves in. Beyond that, they can get all the food they need from the other insects or spiders hiding in the walls of your home, and your air conditioning vents likely have condensation to provide them with cool water to drink.
To clean a trash can with maggots, combine chlorine bleach and hot water in a 1-to-1 ratio and pour about half a gallon of the solution into the bottom of your garbage can. Just make sure there aren’t holes in the can before doing so. Close the lid, and let the fumes go to work to kill the maggots. Rinse the can with a hose outside. Consider finishing up with a bleach disinfectant and a scrub brush before letting the can dry completely. You can also consider hiring an exterminator near you for a quick, easy solution to maggots in your garbage cans.
