Kitchens
Most kitchens are warm, have a food supply, water and lots of space to hide: They are a wonderful place to cook, relax and even have meals, they are also perfect for pests. Everything about them essentially calls for an infestation, if they aren’t kept clean. 

Walls
The wall of any home — or any space available — can be a suitable hiding place. Dry and safe most insects can hide inside walls, where they can wait until it’s safe to search for food and water. If a wall has a hole or crack, this can be an easy entry point.

Bathrooms
The bathroom can be a cool environment; during the humid summers, bugs can get a brief rest from the relative heat outside. If your bathroom isn’t clean, and if there are holes very close to the drains or the windows, bugs will get in and quickly head for this oasis.

There come to torment you in at least pairs, if not groups or an entire “army”. If you terminate one, another five will appear. Insects act collectively as their instinct to survive sees them stick together. You will always discover more of them and this is why simply spraying them with any available chemical products is just not good enough. Your approach is doomed to fail.

Pests leave signs
Pests will leave signs all over the place that they are here; you can discover leftovers of food, for example. If bugs infest your bed then you will notice blood stains all over the place, having eaten their meal of blood while you were asleep. Termites will leave marks on walls or furniture wherever they have bored into the wood.

The breeding pests
Any pest has its an area where they breed, where they can reproduce whole battalions of their own kind. This how they are able to continue taking up home in your space. So,  locate their breeding grounds, destroy every egg laid and stop them multiplying and conquering your surroundings.
