I can't keep bugs out! How can I repel bugs out of my home naturally?

Question

I have a well-sealed house and bugs are still sneaking in! How do I keep them out?! They are driving me crazy!

Answer 1

~~~Try buying as many  gecko lizards as you can afford and let them go outside close to your house. These are amazing insect eaters. We even put some indoors (sounds freaky-but we never saw them again-they hide and we never had any bugs!) Completely natural, wont hurt anyone, and they solve a horrific problem. Large pet stores and reptile stores carry them. You may be able to buy in bulk over the internet. I swear they work and are wonderful!!!~~~

Hi,

boric acid is a good one, not sure just exactly how natural it is but it is environmentally friendly - and, while it does a job on bugs it doesn't kill people.

salt is supposed to be a good barrier for ants.

i have forgotten a lot of what i once knew... but try this site, they seem to have a lot of ideas, i googled "natural pest repellents" and there are other sites as well:

also, buy a ton of caulk or whatever you prefer and just keep filling in all the little cracks and holes... eventually you'll get them all.  a house may seem well-sealed, but go into all the areas of the basement and attic and the bathroom, everywhere.  heating/ac things, install those trap things in your shower drains, vents, where plumbing goes into the wall, cable cord entryways, etc... and keep the doors closed and stuff, if you don't already.

Good Luck!

Mothballs I heard that bugs hate the smell and horse chestnuts.
