Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Yes, you should wash your sheets and clothes immediately after receiving a pest control service. If your pest pro sprayed chemicals inside your home, it’s important to remove any lingering residue from your washable items. Consult your pest control pro for a list of post-treatment steps to follow.

Setting up an animal trap in your yard largely depends on where you live and the type of critter you're dealing with. In many states, trapping nuisance animals like squirrels, rats, or raccoons is allowed, sometimes without needing a permit. However, certain wildlife species are protected, and not all states have lenient catch-and-release regulations.

Before placing a trap, check your local laws to avoid fines or other legal issues. Some areas allow DIY trapping, while others may require professional assistance. Most areas require a professional to relocate the animal once trapped. Consulting a pro ensures you handle the situation responsibly, humanely, and within the law.

Wasps don’t sleep in, but they are relatively inactive at night, sticking to the confines of the nest, in what’s known as a dormant state. Additionally, female wasps hibernate throughout the winter. That’s why evenings are the best time of the day to attack wasp nests.

Ironically, stink bugs tend to hate plants that have a strong odor. Along with the plants that attract their predators listed above, here are a few pungent plants to add to your garden:

  • Garlic

  • Radishes

  • Mint

  • Lavender

  • Rosemary

  • Thyme

  • Catnip

  • Lemongrass

You can get rid of fleas by taking several steps as quickly as possible. First, consult your pet’s vet to determine the best flea shampoo or medicine to apply to their coat. In conjunction with treating your furry friend, treat your house by washing all linens, including pet bedding, in warm to hot water with detergent. You should also use a strong vacuum on all floor surfaces, spread diatomaceous earth in flea-prone areas, and consider using commercial baits, traps, and powders.
