How to Prevent a Booklice Infestation?
Prevent booklice infestations by reducing humidity, improving ventilation, and storing items in dry areas. Regular cleaning and dehumidifiers can also help.
- Good ventilation – as these pest thrive in damp areas, it is important to have good ventilation in your home and business
- Open windows – especially in areas such as kitchens and bathroom to help with condensation as this is what causes mould, which booklice will then further feed on
- Storage – we recommend you keep dry foodstuffs in a cool dry place to prevent infestation
- Hygiene – keeping cupboards and presses clean and dry before putting food back in after being taken out
