7. Window Frames and Door Edges

 

 

 

Bagworms sometimes appear near windows and doors, especially in homes located near gardens or green spaces. They may enter from outdoors and settle along window frames, door edges, or cracks in walls. These areas often collect dust and debris and provide easy access to indoor shelter.

 

How to Reduce the Risk

To prevent bagworms from hiding and multiplying in your home, regular cleaning is essential. Vacuum walls, corners, carpets, and closets frequently. Reduce humidity by improving ventilation, especially in bathrooms and laundry areas. Wash and rotate stored clothing, and avoid letting dust accumulate in rarely used spaces.

 

While bagworms are harmless, their presence often signals conditions that could attract other pests as well. Addressing these hiding spots early helps maintain a cleaner, healthier home environment.
