Q: Does rock landscaping attract snakes and other critters?

• <div><p>Rocks are less likely to attract snakes and other critters because their prey (termites, ticks, and other insects) don&rsquo;t usually inhabit this environment. However, if you have placed together rocks with large spaces in between or near a source of water, you may find a snake or an occasional chipmunk seeking shelter.</p></div>

Q: What can I do to help prevent ticks?

• <div><p>Ticks love to hide in long grass, mulch beds, leaf piles, and wooded areas, so minimizing these things in your yard can help stop them from making a home there. If you live in an area with lots of wildlife, it's also helpful to put up a fence so that deer and other animals don't bring ticks into your yard.</p></div>

Q: Can a flea infestation resolve on its own?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s highly unlikely that fleas will pack up and leave your home on their own. Fleas reproduce frequently and by the dozens, so an infestation can grow and spread rapidly, increasing the need for professional extermination. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s important to address a flea issue in your home as soon as you identify it. Hire a professional flea exterminator to clear your home of these tiny pests.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to hire an exterminator or pest control service?

• <div><p>The cost to hire an exterminator or pest control service is $175 on average, with typical costs ranging from $100 to $500. However, you could spend more depending on several factors, including the type of pest, the size and severity of the infestation, and the number of visits required.</p><p>Service costs also vary by frequency:</p><p>&bull; One-time service: $300&ndash;$550</p><p>&bull; Initial visit with ongoing service: $150&ndash;$300</p><p>&bull; Monthly visits: $40&ndash;$70</p><p>&bull; Quarterly visits: $100&ndash;$300</p><p>&bull; Annual visits: $300&ndash;$550</p><p>The type of pest significantly impacts the price. For example, exterminating spiders typically costs between $100 and $300, while a termite problem can range from $230 to $2,500 or more, depending on the extent of the damage. Routine pest control services can help prevent future infestations and costly damage to your home.</p></div>

Q: Do carpenter ants eat wood?

• <div><p>Carpenter ants don&rsquo;t eat wood. It&rsquo;s a common misconception because many kinds of termites eat wood as well as live inside it. Carpenter ants, however, are omnivores and only chew into wood to create pathways and nests, discarding the chewed wood as frass which is a major indicator of a carpenter ant problem. They prefer to eat smaller insects, sweet things like spilled honey, and sources of protein like pet food.</p></div>
