Here's How The Humidity Levels In Your Home Can Attract Crawling Pests
By MICHELE WANKE
High humidity levels in the home can inadvertently attract unwanted guests, namely spiders. These crawling pests, like many living organisms, require water for survival.
This need drives them to seek out damp places in residences for hydration, including areas under sinks and near indoor plants or in basements and bathrooms.
These humid zones not only provide spiders with water but also become their hunting grounds, as many bugs that spiders feed on are also attracted to
moist conditions.
High humidity can lead to a spider infestation, so it's crucial to maintain an ideal balance. Using dehumidifiers or ensuring proper ventilation in moisture-prone areas
can help.
