A garden shed is not just for relaxation: what pests are hiding behind the city

A garden house is not just for relaxation

What pests lurk outside the city?

A garden shed or homestead is often associated with peace, nature, and relaxation. However, in homesteads, pests have even better conditions to breed than in the city – less disturbance, more cover, and more organic matter.


The most common garden pests:

  • Ants and bedbugs - enter buildings through small cracks and build nests in walls or floors.

  • Mice and rats are attracted to food scraps, outdoor storage areas, and firewood piles.

  • Wasps and hornets - love attics, roofs, and storage rooms.

  • Wood rodents - damage garden furniture, structures, and fences.


When does the problem become serious?

  • When a house is left unattended over the winter , and in the spring you find gnawed walls or nests.

  • When pests move into the living area – especially with children or pets.

  • When pests damage electrical installations, pipes, or thermal insulation .


What to do?

  1. Preventive disinfection before and after the season .

  2. Sealing – windows, doors, cracks, ventilation.

  3. Maintaining cleanliness - do not leave garbage, recyclable waste, or crumbs.

  4. Contact specialists if there are signs: nests, odors, feces, bites.
