Get a cat and solve both issues

[-] RebekahWSD@lemmy.world 8 points 4 months ago

I keep telling my cat to be a hunter, and all she does is roll around on the floor and go "merop? Mrrrrr? MEROWP!" as the insects dance around.

Mine stare at them, maybe do a light paw and meow like a maniac at them, they're not good pest control.

Luckily, the gratuitous amount of spiders seem to do their job, there's a lot of lake flies!midges/gnats but I've never seen them or ants in the house, just spiders.

I have 3 cats. Luckily they don't hurt the spider. Sadly, they won't attack the flies though.

Cats make for pretty poor insect control. They mostly kill spiders, not "pest" insects.

But don’t get my cat.
