Summertime in Florida equates to creepy crawlies in and around our home. It’s a subject that’s not fun or pretty to talk about, but it just goes with the territory of living in the south. Two of my biggest nemeses are Palmetto bugs and wasps.
If you’re lucky enough to not live in an area with Palmetto bugs, be thankful. These jumbo roaches love to sneak in through open garage and patio doors after it rains. I probably wouldn’t notice half of them if it wasn’t for our cats, who chase after the bugs like they’re toys. Once you realize the size of the bugs, they’ll totally creep you out. I’ve often chased them out of the house with a broom because it would be beyond disgusting to squash them like the bugs they are. Gross, gross, gross!
My other bug enemy are wasps. For some reason they like to make their nests right at our front door. The build them way up high, where it’s hard to reach and we only notice them when it’s too late. My daughter is particularly afraid of getting stung, so it’s a problem we have to stay on top of. My husband, Rick,  is our “Bug Hero” — I’m not sure how happy he is with that role, but he’s the one we’ve delegated to do our dirty work.
My husband uses Hot Shot® Wasp & Hornet Killer3 aerosol because it’s easy to use, and it completely destroys the wasps at up to 27 feet — that means he doesn’t have to get up on a latter to reach their ugly nests.
We’ve had so much success with Hot Shot® Insecticides outside, we’re giving it a try inside on those pesky Palmetto bugs. I have a can of Hot Shot® Ant & Roach Plus Germ Killer in Fresh Floral Scent that I’m going to spray — or I should say, my husband, the bug hero, is going to spray — along our baseboards and in between the crevices of our doors where they come in. We’re not letting bugs feel at home in our home!
