Bugs Coming In Through Window Air Conditioner

However most of the models do show to have outside vents on both the top and side.

Bugs coming in through window air conditioner.

You re thinking of a shitty window swamp cooler. The bugs are getting around the towels and the constuction paper. Also caulk the gap between the window panes that results from your having the lower sash up. When insects have invaded their home most people tend to go to the store to buy a can of pesticide spray.

It s a sticky oil based putty that you can stuff into the cracks. However if insects are getting into your home through the air conditioner ducts you should not spray a pesticide there. I thought they were coming from a gap somewhere around the unit. The most common bugs are mosquitoes flies cluster flies lanternflies and mayflies spiders and cockroaches.

They have a small haier window ac installed and every spring through fall they have a decent problem with moths and gnats coming through the ac. Now if it s sealed in the window good unless the vent only on some models to bring in fresh air is open there should not be a way for outside air or bugs to come through the air conditioner. Where the cold air comes out. There are many bugs that ll hang around your window ac unit and some will even live inside your air conditioner.

The model number listed is not complete and shows several models. If you do the fumes will be spread throughout your house the next time the air conditioner turns on. A proper window ac won t let bugs through unless the installation technician doesn t seal around the unit properly. View entire discussion 7 comments.
