The mat is usually non-biting and is generally considered to be a less harmful species. However, a sudden herd of roll up can cause unpleasant odors, stains and other annoyances. Fortunately, you can put an end to almost any of their invasions in a matter of days.This wikiHow article will show you several ways to get rid of a roll.

Steps

Part 1 of 3: Prevention and elimination of rollers without the use of chemicals

  1. Lawn maintenance. Regularly remove dry leaves and mow grass as needed to keep your lawn low and green. Tall grass is a great refuge for the mat.
    • Tall grass and places with a lot of dry leaves are often wet, so mowing can help dry these areas. Rollers cannot live long in dry places, so they will automatically evacuate away from dry grass.
    • Water the grass in the morning instead of at night. The mat is active at night, so the lawn will dry up before nightfall if you water it in the morning.

  2. Remove or relocate slide shelters. You need to remove all piles of leaves or the like. Rearrange rolling or hiding places that are actually beneficial to the lawn (such as mulch) so that organic material is not too close to the foundation.
    • Common hiding places include rubbish piles, rocks, boards, leaves, mulch and compost. In general, you should completely remove all piles of unnecessary debris. But if you really need to, you should at least remove the piles of materials from the area near your home and in the far corner of the yard.
    • The removal of rotting organic matter also helps to remove the food sources of the mat, which in turn also works to prevent this bug.
    • Make sure garden covers are only 7.5-10 cm thick and at least 60 to 90 centimeters away from foundations.
    • Prune all of the bushes in spring to allow air to circulate between the plants so that the environment is dry.

  3. Carrying rainwater away from home. Check gutters and make sure rainwater and sediment are carried as far away from home as possible.
    • If humidity and raining becomes a problem, extend the gutters to keep the rainwater as far away from home as possible.
    • Check around the house for factors that make your basement wet. For example, if your house is located at the foot of a hill, rainwater can flow back in naturally. In this case, you need to take some extra steps to reinforce and waterproof the foundation, you may even have to call a basement service to get it right.
    • Likewise, you should also lock the nozzles near your foundation.

  4. Seal the cracks and crevices that lead into your home. Attach screens to windows and doors. If you find any cracks in your foundation or the wall around your home, get it fixed immediately. The mat is virtually impossible to enter the home if you take these steps.
    • Windows and doors should fit snugly. If any of the doors do not fit properly, attach a barrier to fix the problem.
    • Check for cracks and crevices around your home. Fill the gaps with glue to block access to the home of the mat.
    • Check for door braces around the house. You need a flashlight and two people, one standing outside and one standing indoors. When one person shines a flashlight along the edges of doors and windows are closed, the other person will observe light coming through from the other side. If you find any rays of light passing through, you will need to fix the guards on the door.
    • The mat can even crawl through the vents. To prevent this, install the mesh outside all the vents.
  5. Clean up the mat. If the mats appear indoors, you can usually get rid of them simply by sweeping them with a brush or by vacuuming.
    • If your home is exposed to serious contamination, you should consider using an industrial vacuum cleaner instead of a household vacuum cleaner. Ask for rentals in rental stores so you don't have to buy a new device.
  6. Eliminate moisture in the house. If the mat comes into your home, it is likely that the house is humid. You can use a dehumidifier to absorb excess moisture in the air, so the rugs will no longer be interested in your home.
    • Pay special attention to the under-floor and basement spaces if you have these in your home. These spaces are usually the wettest places, so if the mat does enter the home they will probably pass through these locations.
    • Note that the mat will not last long in a dry home, even if a path has been found. Usually, these bugs will not reproduce and die within 24 hours of being locked up indoors if the environment is not high in humidity.
    • Both a dehumidifier and an air conditioner can suck the moisture out of the air, but maybe not enough to handle really humid places in your home. In extremely humid environments, you can use many dehumidifiers that are also useless.
    • To see if indoor humidity is serious, place a hygrometer in the wettest areas of your home. This instrument will measure moisture in a certain space. If the hygrometer shows humidity in the air of 50% or more, then the place is warm enough to attract the mat and allow them to grow.

Part 2 of 3: Chemical rolling control

  1. Use pesticides only after trying other remedies. If the environment in your home is still conducive to rolling, then using chemicals will only temporarily alleviate the contamination without much help. However, if you have taken all of the chemical-free means of prevention and elimination and the situation is still not improving, this method may help.
    • You should also be aware that many chemical insecticidal powders are not highly effective when used in humid places, so for pesticides to be effective it is important to remove moisture.
  2. Spray pesticides around homes, cracks and crevices. Use pesticides that are stored around areas where you suspect that they have mixed mats. Chemicals will stick to these bugs as they crawl over and slowly kill them.
    • If you have sealed the crevices and crevices with sealant, simply spray the insecticide around your foundation as well as around windows and doors.
    • Make sure to choose an insecticide that is effective on the roll. Active ingredients to look for include propoxur, cyfluthrin, pyrethrins, piperonyl butoxide, amorphous silica gel, deltamethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, hexa-hydroxyl, cypermethrin, and bifenthrin.
  3. Handling hiding places of outdoor mat. If you know where the mat often congregates outside, you can mix outdoor pesticides with the soil or other debris in the area. The chemicals will slowly seep into the mat and poison them.
    • Outdoor use of insecticides is mainly in covered flower beds and heavily leafed areas.
    • When dealing with covered outdoor areas, make sure you use enough water so that the toxins can get through the mulch on the ground. You can also scratch off the mulch before spraying so that the chemicals sink deep into the ground and reach the place where the mat collects.
    • Make sure to choose an insecticide that is effective in killing the mat. The active ingredients you should look for are propoxur, cyfluthrin, pyrethrins, piperonyl butoxide, amorphous silica gel, deltamethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, hexa-hydroxyl, cypermethrin, and bifenthrin.
  4. Use insecticide sprays indoors. If you can't scan or remove mats, you can use insecticide sprays when you see them. The spray that works on contact will quickly kill the mat.
    • Spray medicine directly on the mat every time you see them.
    • Make sure the insecticide you choose is effective on the roll. Active ingredients to look for include propoxur, cyfluthrin, pyrethrins, piperonyl butoxide, amorphous silica gel, deltamethrin, lambda-cyhalothrin, hexa-hydroxyl, cypermethrin, and bifenthrin.
  5. Consider contacting a professional service. If the problem is out of control, call a professional pest control service for action; they have stronger and more effective chemicals. advertisement

Part 3 of 3: Natural pesticides

  1. Spread the diatomaceous soil. Spread this natural product around problem areas in your home, including crevices and crevices leading out and anywhere with high humidity.
    • Diatom soil used for pest control purposes is often labeled as "DE" or "powder to kill cockroaches."
    • This natural pest control product is made from fossilized diatoms, which are tiny, sharp particles. When the mat or any insect crawls through the diatomaceous soil, they cut all over the body, and these cuts will cause them to die from dehydration.
  2. Try boric acid. This product is used in the same way as diatoms. Sprinkle boric acid in problem areas, including cracks, cracks, and wet areas in your home.
    • Boric acid also contains tiny particles that can tear off and dehydrate the mat. In addition, this is also a digestive poison, so it will kill the roll from the inside if not initially killed from the outside.
  3. Mix the ash into the soil. For outdoor rolling treatment, mix a handful of dry kitchen ash in the soil around your home, especially when the soil is fairly damp. Kitchen ash will help dry the soil.
    • Focus on soil and mulch around the foundation.
    • The mat lives, grows and spawns in moist soil. If you use the ash to properly dry the soil, the bugs will naturally find that the area has nothing to look for.
    • You can increase the effectiveness of this therapy by using a rake or hoe after spreading the ashes.
  4. Chicken farming. If you have enough room, time and energy, you might consider keeping chickens in the yard. The method of raising chickens to kill the mat may sound strange, but chickens are the roll's natural predator and can help you control the number of rolls.
    • The chickens are quite gluttonous; Some chickens can help you with an infection in a moderate amount.
    • Consider this option only if your accommodation is allowed to keep chickens and you are willing to take the responsibility of caring for the flocks.
  5. Consider buying a rolling mat, but you will have to dump them when you catch them. advertisement
