The type of ecosystem that can be found in your home is commonly referred to as a home ecosystem or indoor ecosystem. This includes both living organisms (like humans, pets, insects such as cockroaches and silverfish, plants) and non-living elements (like furniture, air, water, and soil in plant pots) interacting within your household environment.More broadly, your home contains a human-made ecosystem or urban ecosystem, which is a smaller part of a larger terrestrial ecosystem. Within this, the living things, like plants and microorganisms, interact with environmental factors to create a unique ecosystem indoors.
