How do I keep pests away from my garden?

• <div><p>There are a few ways to keep pesky bugs away from your garden. One option you have is to plant flowers so beneficial insects like ladybugs can control pests for you. A similar method is companion planting, which means you’ll grow vegetables that’ll discourage pests, like garlic, onions, and basil. The best pest prevention method will depend on the bugs you have issues with and the plants in your garden. </p></div>

Q: Is there anything you can spray to keep birds away?

• <div><p>You can find a variety of humane bird repellent sprays online and at home improvement stores. However, if you want to try a DIY method that will keep birds away without harming them, mix some water, dish soap, and a few drops of peppermint oil and spray the area you want bird-free. Peppermint oil is a notoriously lovely smell for humans, but birds tend to avoid it.</p></div>

Q: What is the typical duration for a pest control service for businesses?

• <div><p>Most treatments take 1-3 hours, but severe infestations may require multiple visits.</p></div>

Q: Does a woodpecker on the house always mean termites?

• <div><p>Woodpeckers usually feed on homes when there is a food source present, and termites are one possible source. However, the presence of woodpeckers doesn&rsquo;t necessarily mean there are termites. They may also be feeding on more harmless insects like ants or spiders. If woodpeckers seem drawn to one particular part of your home&rsquo;s siding, it might be worth hiring a termite inspector to check for the presence of these pesky critters.</p></div>

Q: What size dog is too big for a hawk?

• <div><p>Hawk attacks on pets are rare, and they won&rsquo;t target animals that outweigh them. Hawks typically weigh between one and three pounds. That means you don&rsquo;t need to worry if you have a Labrador Retriever or French Bulldog. However, small cats and toy breed dogs, like Chihuahuas, are at risk. Pet attacks are more likely in winter when food is scarce or in the early summer when inexperienced young hawks are honing their hunting skills.</p></div>
