There are other ways to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/kill-bed-bugs-diy-bed-bug-treatment-plan.htm">kill bed bugs without an exterminator</a>, including using steam, DIY heat treatments, essential oils, diatomaceous earth, and more. However, you should hire a professional bed bug exterminator to eliminate large numbers of bed bugs.</p></div>

Will I still see fleas after bombing?

• <div><p>Yes, there’s a chance you will still see fleas after bombing since it takes about 24 hours for fleas to die off. If your infestation is severe or fleas are hiding in inaccessible areas, you’re even more likely to see a few remaining stragglers inside your home. If this is the case, you may want to contact your exterminator and see what your options are for removal or treatment.</p></div>

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Yes, mulch can attract pests. Spiders, centipedes, and ants are some common pests that are attracted to mulch. You can avoid infestation by laying your bags of mulch in the heat for a few hours or by using an inorganic mulch, as it’s less attractive to pests.

Citrus scents such as lemon or lime are lethal to bed bugs. They’re drawn to the smell, but the chemicals often kill them. There are other ways to kill bed bugs without an exterminator, including using steam, DIY heat treatments, essential oils, diatomaceous earth, and more. However, you should hire a professional bed bug exterminator to eliminate large numbers of bed bugs.

Carpenter bees do not make honey like honey bees, but they are still essential pollinators. In fact, they have a unique talent called "buzz pollination," in which they use the vibration from their wings to help release pollen from the flowers' anthers. Honey bees are also vital pollinators but do not use this process because they are too small and lack the strength required to buzz pollinate.

Homemade raccoon repellents can be a cost-effective and humane method for keeping raccoons off your property. Raccoons despise the smell of vinegar, so keeping a bowl of it near your home can keep them away. Some wildlife companies advise using cayenne pepper or hot sauce sprinkled near your deck or porch as another homemade option.

Yes, there’s a chance you will still see fleas after bombing since it takes about 24 hours for fleas to die off. If your infestation is severe or fleas are hiding in inaccessible areas, you’re even more likely to see a few remaining stragglers inside your home. If this is the case, you may want to contact your exterminator and see what your options are for removal or treatment.
