Here are Tips to Protect Your Home from Wild Animals in Rainy Season

The high rainfall may cause wild animals, such as snakes, monitor lizards, and insects to leave their habitat to look for food or drier places. Therefore, residents are urged to keep their environment clean to anticipate wild animals from entering the neighborhood.

"Therefore, it is important for people to always maintain cleanliness,"

Jakarta Fire Handling and Rescue (Gulkarmat) Agency Acting Head, Satriadi Gunawan conveyed, the high rainfall often triggers the movement of wild animals into residential areas.

Residents are urged to be more vigilant and take preventive measures, such as closing gaps in the house, not stacking unused items in the yard, and ensuring water channels around the house are clean to prevent them from becoming hideouts for wild animals.

"These animals can enter people's houses or yards because their natural habitat is disrupted. Therefore, it is important for people to always maintain cleanliness and not leave piles of items or garbage that could become hiding places for wild animals," he explained, Monday (2/17).

He also reminded residents to immediately contact Gulkarmat officers or rescue teams if they find snakes or other potentially dangerous animals around the house, so they can be evacuated safely.

"If you find dangerous wild animals, don't try to catch them yourself. Immediately contact the Jakarta Firefighters through Jakarta Siaga 112, JAKI App, or go to the nearest Fire Station. This service is free and we are on standby 24 hours," he stated.

Here are some tips to prevent wild animals from entering your home:

- Keep the Environment Clean. Make sure your home and surrounding environment are clean and there are no piles of garbage or puddles of water that can become nests for wild animals.

- Check and Close Entrance Gaps. Make sure the house is tightly closed, such as closing gaps in doors, vents, or drain holes.

- Be Careful in Open Areas. Be aware of places where wild animals could potentially hide, such as bushes, gutters, and woodpiles.

- Use Adequate Lighting at Night. Make sure your home and neighborhood are well-lit to avoid attacks from wild animals.

- Apply Fragrance. Fragrances can deter wild animals from entering your home. Snakes and insects dislike strong smells, so fragrances can interfere with their sense of smell.
