Can this robot vacuum survive a full‑scale war against pests? 🐜🤖 Here's how.

Nobody wants to open their dust bin and find cockroaches. Here's how to keep pests out of your robot vacuum and base station for good.

The 6 rules of pest prevention:

1️⃣ Clean daily – Empty dust bin & dirty water tank. Remove hair, food scraps, and debris. Wipe seals with alcohol.

2️⃣ Store smart – Keep robot in a dry, well‑ventilated area. Avoid dark, damp corners or kitchens.

3️⃣ Deep clean weekly – Take apart the dust bin, filter, brush compartment, and bottom cover. Clean internal gaps and around the motor.

4️⃣ Seal the gaps – Check housing clips, drainage ports, and rubber seals. Repair any cracks or large gaps.

5️⃣ Repellent + hygiene – Place safe insect repellent near the robot. Keep food waste far away.

6️⃣ Long‑term storage – Clean, dry, and seal the robot in a storage bag when not in use for a while.

Follow these and your robot won't become a bug hotel. 🐜🚫

I’m going to throw my robot in the trash—even though I’ve only had it for a few months—because it became infested with all kinds of cockroaches; thanks to my neighbors, I’m also moving house because of this horrible infestation, and I’ll have to leave the robot behind.🙄☹️😮‍💨

if you have cockroaches, you got bigger
