   • Bed Bugs. Bed bugs are notoriously hard to control if the infestation is large, and you should contact an experienced professional, according to Suiter.
   • Fruit Flies. Fruit flies love overripe fruit, specks of food, and even the scum trapped in your kitchen drain. You can control and get rid of them by: Cut off their food supply by storing soft fruits in the refrigerator, wiping down counters, emptying garbage and recycling daily, and cleaning your sink drain.
   • Ants. There are 12,000 species of ants and sometimes control is difficult because of their diversity. But all ants have a social structure of sharing food so it is often simplest to feed ants insecticidal bait and let them carry it back to the nest rather than spending time trying to locate the nest.
   • Stink Bugs. Usually living outdoors, stink bugs come inside to seek shelter from the cold. Prevent their invasion by sealing all cracks 1/8 wide or wider, using window screens, and keeping doors closed.

   • Stink Bugs. What attracts stink bugs to your home? Though they generally live and breed outdoors, when the temperatures get cooler, they often move indoors to hibernate.
   • Weevils. Weevils usually get into your house by hitching a ride in your groceries. Adult weevils burrow into rice and other grains to lay their eggs, so you may not know you’ve brought home pests until they hatch and crawl all over your pantry!
   • Carpet Beetles. An adult carpet beetle won’t cause your home any harm. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of their larvae. Carpet beetle larvae can eat holes in rugs, curtains, upholstery, clothing, and books.
   • Centipedes. Centipedes are actually one of the good guys. They don’t destroy your home or contaminate your pantry, but instead feast on the bad bugs like termites, moths, and roaches.
