For many homeowners, the kitchen is the pest hotspot. This is because, of all the rooms within a home, the kitchen has the most to offer pests: shelter, food and water.

Different pests are attracted to different things. For instance, ants look for food sources. If you’ve got sweet-smelling food or leftovers lying around, you will attract ants. What’s worse is that, once you begin to attract ants, more will come since they leave pheromones for others to track.
