Q: What should I do if I see a tick crawling in my house?

• <div><p>If you find a tick inside crawling in the house, remember not to just step on it or try to crush it. Ticks have hard bodies and it&rsquo;s hard to kill them this way. Instead, pick it up with toilet paper and flush it. You can also place it in a sealed bag, or kill it by placing it in alcohol. </p></div>

Q: Are wasps active at night?

• <div><p>Wasps don&rsquo;t sleep in, but they are relatively inactive at night, sticking to the confines of the nest, in what&rsquo;s known as a dormant state. Additionally, female wasps hibernate throughout the winter. That&rsquo;s why evenings are the best time of the day to attack wasp nests.</p></div>

Q: What kills stink bugs fast?

It&rsquo;s difficult to kill them without crushing them and releasing their signature odor, or without using a toxic insecticide. Some homeowners have had luck with peppermint oil sprays or soapy water traps. But a professional exterminator will have the best advice and course of action. </p></div>

Q: What are the best deterrents for possums?

• <div><p>The best deterrents for possums include securing trash cans with tight-fitting lids, removing outdoor food sources like pet food or fallen fruit, and trimming tree branches that provide access to your roof or an open window. Motion-activated lights or sprinklers can also startle and discourage them from visiting. Additionally, you can take advantage of their strong sense of smell by using garlic, onion, or commercial possum repellents to keep them off your property.</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>
