Q: What do squirrels hate?

• <div><p>Squirrels hate anything that disturbs the peace in their nest. Loud noises, bright lights, and strong smells like cayenne pepper or mothballs will deter them from your attic. Spread these scents, add a strobe light, or use an ultrasonic repeller to keep squirrels from nesting in your attic.</p></div>

Q: Can an animal get out of a chimney on its own?

• <div><p>Some animals, such as bats or birds, will be able to get out of chimneys on their own since they can fly. Other animals, however, may have a harder time and will require the help of a professional to escape. Squirrels and raccoons in particular may become stuck inside a chimney, especially if you have a buildup of soot or creosote inside. This can prevent them from being able to climb out, in which case you&rsquo;ll need to call an animal control expert to help remove them. </p></div>

Q: Why are wasps so aggressive?

• <div><p>Wasps are aggressive to protect their nests. Although they are deemed aggressive, they only act that way when they feel their nests are threatened. They can also act aggressive when there is a lack of food available. Most wasps will leave you alone if you stay clear of their nests.</p></div>

Q: Do stink bugs play dead?

• <div><p>Yes, stink bugs can play dead. Stink bugs don&rsquo;t just release bad odors, they have a defense mechanism to pretend to be dead, even when flicked over and swept into a trash bin. That&rsquo;s how stink bugs may keep coming back even if you thought you got rid of them. </p></div>

Q: What keeps termites away?

• <div><p>Natural methods such as spraying orange oil, spreading diatomaceous earth, or spreading boric acid can help prevent termites from entering your home or damaging your garden. Place these solutions near termite entry points to deter them. Termites also dislike the smell of cedarwood, geranium, and tea tree oil, which can all be used to keep termites away.</p></div>
