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: What is a natural way to repel bears?

• <div><p>Using chemicals with harsh odors is a natural way to repel bears. While the animal&rsquo;s strong sense of smell is an asset in the animal kingdom, it&rsquo;s a weakness here. Simply place bleach or ammonia in a bucket and leave it outside day or night. Ironically, bears also dislike the smell of pine, so you can use pine oil or a pine-based cleaning agent. Avoid using cleaning products with fruit or citrus smells, however.</p></div>

Q: What diseases can raccoons spread?

• <div><p>Raccoons can spread viruses and bacteria to humans and pets, including rabies, canine and feline distemper, parvovirus, Salmonella, and leptospirosis. These can all cause a range of illnesses.</p></div>

Q: What can you spray on garbage bags to keep animals away?

• <div><p>To keep animals away from your trash, you can spray store-bought ammonia-based cleaners on the bag or make your own spray. All you need is a spray bottle with one part ammonia and one part water. Once you&rsquo;ve sprayed the bags, keep your kids and pets away.</p></div>

Q: How effective are natural mice deterrents?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/get-rid-mice-and-spiders-essential-oils.htm">Scented mouse deterrents</a>, like peppermint oil, can be effective in the short term. The pungent smells may temporarily repel mice, but they lose effectiveness as the scent fades or mice get used to it. The main drawbacks are frequent reapplication and the fact that these deterrents don't address the root cause of the infestation, such as entry points or food sources. While they can be part of a broader strategy, scented deterrents alone are rarely enough to eliminate a mouse problem.</p></div>

Jeff was punctual and courteous both when he gave his bid and when he came back to complete the job. The trees in my yard were huge but he was able to safely bring them to the ground and cleaned all the mess. When he was done you couldn't even tell there had been trees in my yard.
