How to Prevent Wasps From Getting Through Air Vents
WouterTaking steps to prevent wasps from getting into your home or building a nest is important. Not only are wasps an annoying nuisance, they can be dangerous if you have allergies.
The best way to prevent wasps from getting into your house is to seal off any openings that they can use. If you can’t do this yourself, a professional pest control specialist will be able to do the job for you.
The first thing you need to do is locate the source of the problem. Typically, wasps will enter your home through a hole in your wall or a vent. The best way to find this is to look at your walls and ceilings for holes. You may also need to look at your doors and windows to see where wasps can get in.
Another good way to keep wasps out is to use a water trap. You can hang one up above your air conditioner. Empty it regularly to make sure it doesn’t fill up.
For the best results, you’ll want to choose a water trap that is made of durable materials. It’s best to use a high quality rubber damper. This will ensure that the vent is completely sealed when it is not in use.
In addition to using a water trap, you may want to try spraying an insecticide into the vents. However, be sure to follow the manufacturer’s directions to ensure you don’t damage the vent.
