Q: How do I prevent moths from coming back?

• <div><p>Once your pest control pro removes moths from your home, you can prevent a recurring infestation by taking a few simple steps. Keep moths from coming indoors by covering up any cracks in the exterior of your home and by keeping windows and doors closed. You could also regularly treat your home with a store-bought or DIY moth repellent. t4, set up a service contract with a professional to regularly sweep for moths and other pests. </p></div>

Q: Do squash bugs bite?

• <div><p>Squash bugs don&rsquo;t bite humans or pets. Their piercing-sucking mouthparts are designed specifically for feeding on plants, not people. While they can be a major nuisance in the garden, they pose no direct physical threat to you, and you don&rsquo;t need to worry about bites, stings, or venom from these pests.</p></div>

Q: Do possums carry diseases?

• <div><p>While possums don&rsquo;t typically carry rabies, they can have lice, fleas, ticks, and mites. According to the <a href="http://ipm.ucanr.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn74123.html">University of California&rsquo;s Pest Management Program</a>, possums can also carry diseases like leptospirosis, tuberculosis, toxoplasmosis, coccidiosis, and fevers. Possums are also the carriers of a parasite that can pass to horses and cats called <a href="https://ceh.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/health-topics/equine-protozoal-myeloencephalitis-epm">Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM)</a>.</p></div>

Q: How long can fleas live without a host?

• <div><p>Adult fleas can live from a few days to about two weeks without a host. If pets are not available, fleas may feed on rodents or people. While adult fleas need a blood source to survive, flea pupae can lie dormant for up to a year in optimal conditions. Therefore, cleaning and treating the infested area is essential to prevent pupae from surviving and hatching later.</p></div>

Q: Do essential oils get rid of cockroaches?

• <div><p>Some believe that essential oils, like peppermint, may work the way that roach-repellent foods do: the roaches do not like the smell that the oil is producing and so they stay away. While essential oils can deter roaches from surfaces, they do not fight an infestation. Use essential oils as a prevention method, not a removal method. </p></div>
