Insect-Friendly Solutions for a Relaxed Home

Jan 14, 2026 Paola Mazza
A home should be a place of tranquility – especially in summer, when we open the windows wide and let nature in. But with the warm season comes more insects. Many of them are important for our ecosystem, but we don't necessarily want them in our living room or bedroom. The good news: an insect-friendly home doesn't mean you have to have insects inside. Rather, it means creating the habitats they need outside – and gently ensuring peace and quiet inside.

Insects perform essential tasks: they pollinate plants, ensure natural balance, and are an important part of our ecosystem. When we create habitats in our gardens, we support biodiversity and nature without compromising the quality of life indoors.

A garden with flowering plants, small retreats, and diverse structures attracts "good" insects while keeping many pests away. This creates a relaxed atmosphere – both indoors and out.

It doesn't take much to gently keep insects out of your living space. Instead of chemical sprays, which often harm the environment and your own health, natural methods work just as reliably.


Some simple measures:

  • Herbs like lavender, lemon balm, and mint: They smell wonderful to us, but many insects dislike them.
  • Ventilate regularly – but mindfully: Fewer insects are active in the morning and evening.
  • Natural defense through essential scents: Lemongrass and eucalyptus, for example, keep mosquitoes away.
  • Gentle garden care: Less perfection, more natural structures – this reduces unwanted insects in the house, as they find enough alternatives outside.

Gentle methods can free your home from spiders, wasps & co. without harming insects. Our solutions – like the LIV insect catcher – work without killing and fit stylishly into your home. They help you safely bring annoying visitors outside while protecting nature.

Equally practical and gentle are the high-quality and custom-made fly screens from Neher, which reliably prevent insects from entering the house in the first place. They protect your home permanently, without chemicals, without stress – and remain visually discreet, so they perfectly match a stylish living ambiance.



An insect-friendly home therefore means:
  • creating habitats outdoors,
  • ensuring peace and quiet indoors,
  • and relying on solutions that benefit both people and nature.
