Top 5 Bug Tricks - Remedies to Get Rid of Pests


What’s the one thing that we all wish we could eliminate from the camping world that absolutely gets on everyone’s nerves? If you guessed BUGS, then you are absolutely right! It seems that regular bug spray just doesn’t work anymore. Have they somewhat become immune to it? So it’s time we take matters into our own hands. With just a few household products we can make your next camping trip a bug free one, even though this is a buggy bug world. 

Using household products to exterminate makes it so much safer for children and yourself! Did I mention less expensive as well? So what bugs are pestering to you? Is it ants, flies, gnats, spiders just to name a few? No more worries. A bottle of febreeze will kill ants on contact; also Windex will handle those pesky ants too.

Scared of spiders? So am I!! One neat fact I found out is that granddaddy long legs spiders are lethal to other bugs and spiders but harmless to humans, so if you see one don’t go on your first instinct and squash the little fella, just turn the other way. As for any other spider - any type of hair spray will kill them in a matter of seconds.

Even though flies are very harmless, they sure are annoying, how to get rid of them you say? Well just mix you up a little apple cider vinegar and a little soapy water with dish detergent, and spray them suckers, they will fall to their doom and bother you no more.

What’s even more annoying than flies? Gnats, the small, yet very noticeable insect. To eliminate them from you camping experience just get a spray bottle, mix lemon scented dish liquid and water, and spray them. That will kill them on contact.

All of these useful home products may be found in our campstore as well. I hope these fun, harmless bug tricks make your next camping experience a great one.
