Habits that support prevention
Reduce food access
Store pantry goods in sealed containers and wipe crumbs from shelves, counters and appliance edges.
Manage indoor moisture
Dry sink areas and keep storage spaces ventilated where practical; persistent dampness can attract some household pests.

Weatherstripping and sealed gaps around doors or utility lines can reduce easy access into living spaces.
