A tidy home can still have insects
Insects can enter with stored goods, packaging or through gaps, and may remain hidden. Ordinary cleaning removes some crumbs and accessible debris but cannot seal entry points or establish the species or extent of an infestation.
Check moisture and stored materials
Look for damp areas, leaks, condensation, cardboard, paper and undisturbed storage. Keep dry goods and documents in suitable containers, maintain access to inspect areas and ask the property manager about leaks or building gaps.
Avoid unsafe chemical treatment
Do not spray pest-control chemicals on food, bedding, children’s items or surfaces unless the product label permits the exact use. Never mix pest products or cleaners. Keep people and pets away as instructed and contact a qualified pest-management provider for recurring activity or uncertain identification.
Separate cleaning from pest control
A cleaner can address agreed accessible surfaces and remove ordinary dust or debris. Pest identification, treatment, building repairs and moisture remediation require separate assessment; a clean does not guarantee an insect-free home.
