How to Keep Your Furniture Insect Free

By Sandwellrattan

If you own rattan furniture, you know how beautiful and durable it can be. But like with all furniture, there is a possibility that bugs can make their way in and damage it. To protect your rattan furniture, it is important to take some proactive steps to keep the bugs away.

The first step to keeping bugs away is to regularly inspect your furniture for any signs of infestation. If you spot anything, address it immediately. You should also vacuum the furniture and dust it regularly using a soft cloth.

Another way to prevent bugs from damaging your rattan furniture is to clean it with a mixture of water and dishwashing detergent frequently. You could also consider applying a protective sealant that will keep the bugs away.

To further protect your furniture, it is recommended you store it in an area that is well-ventilated and free from moisture. This means keeping it away from damp areas, such as basements and crawl spaces. If you know you won’t be using the furniture for a while, you could even consider putting a cover over it.

Finally, if you know that your rattan furniture is especially susceptible to bug infestation, you could benefit from investing in a quality insect-repellent spray designed specifically for furniture. A good repellent can help keep bugs away while also making your furniture look great.
