Pest Control

• Leaving a garbage can open with its lid off attracts pests, especially if the garbage inside is mostly organic. This becomes particularly problematic when the garbage can is placed in a moisture-rich location like underneath the sink. Rodents, flies, roaches, and ants are all drawn to these food sources.
• Regular inspections must occur to ensure there are no gaps in the walls and piping through which pests can enter. Even small gaps can allow ants and roaches to enter, while rodents can access spaces much smaller than expected due to their body structures.
• Similar to open garbage cans, unsealed food left in accessible locations is likely to attract pests, particularly roaches and rodents.
• Roofs and attics with gaps and openings can become habitats for spiders and other pests like cotton rats, which can squeeze through them. These pests can then spread throughout the rest of the living space from these entry points.
• Stagnant water bodies serve as breeding grounds for mosquitoes and other nuisances that can enter through small gaps around windows and doors.
• Debris piles around the home can harbor pests such as ants, which may live in or under them. Their proximity increases the likelihood of these pests entering and infesting the home.

• Pest infestation is a common issue faced by residents and businesses in Dubai and its surrounding suburbs. The warm climate, coupled with rapid urbanization and increasing population density, creates an ideal environment for pests to thrive. Understanding the causes of pest infestation and employing effective solutions is crucial for maintaining a pest-free environment.
• Professional pest control companies, such as Akkad Pest Control , play a vital role in resolving these issues.

Improper waste management is a big reason for pests which provides food and shelter, especially cockroaches, flies and rats.
