in the bathrooms,
the basements,
behind the baseboards or under the washbasins,
and sometimes even in cupboards.
They can also be introduced by cracks into the ground, poorly sealed evacuations, or openings around the pipes. In plain language, anything that offers them freshness and hiding is a paradise for them.
What if you want to limit their presence?
Even if they are useful, their appearance can be difficult to tolerate. Here are some tips to limit their presence while respecting their usefulness:
Reduce the moisture in your home with a dehumidifier, especially in the basement and bathroom.
Clutter cracks and interstices in walls or the ground, especially around pipes.
Keep the surroundings of the house clean, without wet wood or heaps of leaves that would attract other insects.
Install adhesive traps to observe their activity without necessarily eliminating them.
In case of significant proliferation, contact a professional for reasoned and targeted intervention.
