Notice an influx of moths around your property? While seasonal conditions can trigger sudden spikes in flying insects across Australia, a few practical adjustments can help minimise their presence indoors.
Here are four simple ways to help manage moth activity around your home:
1. Adjust exterior lighting: Moths are strongly drawn to white light. Turning off unnecessary outdoor lights or switching to warm, yellow-toned globes helps reduce attraction near entryways.
2. Inspect screens and seals: Check flyscreens for tears and ensure weather strips on doors fit snugly to support your home's defence against entry.
3. Draw blinds at dusk: Keeping curtains or blinds closed when indoor lights are switched on reduces the light glow that pulls outdoor moths toward your windows.
4. Vacuum common resting areas: Regularly vacuum around window sills, light fittings, and skirting boards to remove stray insects before they settle.
