As a home owner, one of the things that you may not always be able to avoid is having to deal with small insects in your house such as ants and flies. While in some cases, these insects might be harmless, in other cases, they can cause a lot of problems in your house and you might need to find ways of getting rid of them.

Humane and cruelty free

However, when looking for ways to get rid of these insects, it is vital that you use humane, cruelty free methods to do so. One thing that most humans tend to forget is that this earth and the land on which we live belongs to all species and that, in order to build our homes, the high rise buildings or even the roads that we travel on, we have inconvenienced and killed numerous animals and now, when these animals that we call “pests” come in to our yards and our homes, we kill them without a second thought without realizing that it is us that has stolen their homes and their habitats and that, they have nowhere else to go. While this does not mean that we have to live with them or adopt them, we must look at the most cruelty free methods to get them out of our houses without killing them. There are many natural and harm free methods for white ants treatment that you will be able to find on the internet. You do not have to use chemical based, poison based methods to do this because not only is it cruel but it is also extremely harmful for our own children and our pets to use these poisonous methods in our homes.

There are thousands of cruelty free pest control and prevention methods that can be used in our homes. Prevention is better than cure and therefore, we need to make sure that we do research about herbs and other medications that could prevent these animals from breeding in our homes.As an example, having fresh basil in our homes can prevent cockroaches from coming in to the house and if you do happen to discover a cockroach infestation, you will need to put lots of basil leaves all around the house and they will all leave as the smell of basil repels them. In addition to this, you can also have your home smelling like an Italian kitchen by having basil in your home at all times. It is important for you to research different herbs to keep in your home as repellents.
