Vacuum. Like, a lot. Cracks, crevices, under the fridge. Bugs love crumbs and darkness. A clean floor is their worst nightmare.
Seal your food. Put flour, rice, and pasta in glass jars. Weevils can’t chew through glass. They’ll look at your pantry like a disappointed food critic.
Check your plants. Let soil dry out between waterings. Fungus gnats hate dryness. It’s like taking their swimming pool away.
Tiny Black Bugs My House
The Magic of Sticky Traps
You can buy yellow sticky traps at the store. They’re like velcro for flying bugs. Just stick them near windows or plants. Watch the gnats get stuck in a yellow jail.
For carpet beetles, use a steam cleaner. Heat kills larvae instantly. Plus, you get a clean carpet. Win-win.
And if all else fails? Embrace the chaos. You now have a tiny, black, house-crashing ecosystem. It’s like a Nat Geo documentary, but smaller and with more flour.
