An expert has shared some of the ways you can stop bugs from entering your home while keeping your windows open.
Leaving the windows open in the summer months is crucial for keeping it cool and allowing ventilation inside the home but it does mean that it's a whole lot easier for pesky bugs to make their way inside.
Nic Shacklock from Online-Bedrooms said: “It can be really frustrating when bugs like moths and flies enter our home while the window is open and it’s a nightmare trying to get them out. “If you don’t want the extra headache, simple tricks like keeping the light off and filling the room with natural essential oils are great at deterring insects.”1. Keep the light off Those who want to keep their window open during the warmer nights without bugs entering should consider keeping their lights off.Households will have less chance of these pests entering their home if they get rid of any potential light for them to follow.
Nic advised: “Add some peppermint oil to water and mix together, then use a spray bottle to disperse the liquid around the house focusing on windows and doors as these pests can’t stand the stuff.”Peppermint oil can also be applied to cotton balls and placed in points of entry areas.
