Q: Can animals in my attic get into my house?

• <div><p>As a general rule, if you hear an animal in your attic, don&rsquo;t assume it will stay there. Animals are drawn to warmth and food sources, which could lead them to other parts of your house. In particular, it&rsquo;s likely that small pests such as rats and mice that only need tiny gaps to squeeze through will end up in your walls and ductwork. Larger animals like raccoons may be limited to an enclosed attic.</p></div>

Q: What should I avoid using when baiting an iguana trap?

• <div><p>When baiting an iguana trap, several items should be avoided. Do not use poisonous baits, such as those intended for rats or mice. This practice is often illegal, is unlikely to attract iguanas, and poses a significant risk to pets or other wildlife. Additionally, avoid using herbs, fruits, and vegetables that are toxic to iguanas, such as fresh sage, rosemary, avocados, and eggplants. While ripe fruit can be an effective bait, be sure to remove any pits or seeds from fruits like apples, pears, and peaches, as they are highly toxic. Finally, steer clear of citrus fruits, which act as a natural deterrent.</p></div>

Q: Are possums dangerous?

• <div><p>Possums don&rsquo;t typically pose a danger to humans&mdash;they prefer to stay out of sight. If they feel threatened, they play dead instead of engaging. However, they can become aggressive when cornered, typically when they become trapped inside your home or when a dog chases them. When this happens, it&rsquo;s best to call a <a href="https://www.angi.com/nearme/wildlife-control/">wildlife control service near you</a> to remove possums safely.</p></div>

Q: How do you attract an iguana to a trap?

• <div><p>Alongside selecting the best bait for an iguana trap, the location, position, and timing play a part. If the lizards have a burrow in your yard or regularly take the same route, place the trap there during the day. Iguanas are diurnal and most active during the day. A shady spot is best to keep the animal comfortable. And don&rsquo;t forget to pick a level surface or stabilize the trap with a brick&mdash;iguanas are less likely to enter if it&rsquo;s wobbly.</p></div>

Q: What type of snake trap is the best?

• <div><p>The right snake trap depends on your needs and the species of snake. Glue traps are the easiest to handle but are inhumane and may catch and kill other animals, like squirrels, birds, and mice. Cage traps catch snakes alive so they can be released elsewhere. Minnow traps are the best choice for water snakes. </p></div>
