Ecotasia's video: Bugs in Your House The Amazing Ecosystem in Your Home

In the dark the forms of our homes take on a foreboding shapes. Monsters, lurking in the shadows. As we grow up we tell ourselves it is all in our imagination. But there are monsters lurking in our closets, and under our beds, in the bathroom, in the kitchen, and even snuggled around us in our blankets. Cockroaches scuttle about, and spiders lurk in dark corners. Dustmites live in your bed, carpet beetles under your bed, termites and carpenter ants chew wooden structures. Pseudoscorpions crall around your bookcases. Outside our buildings create ideal habitats for arthropods to live out there lives. Welcome to the strange and alien world of your own home.
