Q: Can an animal come down the chimney?

• <div><p>Yes, in some cases if your damper is left open, animals can come down your chimney. In these instances, it&rsquo;s more likely that they have fallen in while looking for a safe spot rather than entered your house intentionally.

Q: When are termites most active?

• <div><p>Termites are active year-round in warmer areas and most active in the warmer months in cooler climates. Once termites begin causing damage, they&rsquo;ll continue to destroy your wood year-round, even in cold weather. Termites tend to swarm in warm weather, but colonies can be hard at work, tunneling through your wood 365 days a year.</p></div>

Q: Why do phorid flies keep coming back?

• <div><p>Even with professional pest control and taking your own drastic measures to eliminate a phorid fly infestation, it can be difficult to get rid of these pests for good. If you find that phorid flies keep appearing in your home, it&rsquo;s very likely that you have a persistent source of moisture such as a drain leak or a cracked sewer. Another culprit could be a decaying animal carcass in your home&rsquo;s foundations.</p></div>

Q: Are flying ants bad for your house?

• <div><p>Unlike termites, flying ants won&rsquo;t cause structural damage to your home. Plus, they won&rsquo;t sting or bite you.
