GARDEN SHED AND PESTS
The garden shed is one place you need to keep clean and tidy.
It’s easy to pop things in the shed such as empty pots and boxes that remain there for some time.
This can provide an ideal breeding ground for pests such as spiders.
According to Google, a female redback spider may lay four to ten egg sacs which averages around 250 eggs, though be as few as 40 or as many as 500.
Even at the very least, having 40 redback spiders in your garden shed is a scary thought!
Definitely do NOT store footwear in the shed!
If your shed is in need of a good clean and de-clutter, enter with gloves and shoes on and if it's not too hot, wear a long sleeve shirt.
Be fully prepared to expect to see some pests occupying the shed.
Carefully remove all contents all the while mindful of any pests that can bite.
Once you've sorted what stays and what goes, where possible pack the items you wish to keep in stackable storage containers with lids. Label the contents.
This will keep your items neat and tidy, you will know at a glance what's in each storage container and best of all, safe from pests.
