Pest Control questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t necessarily need a flea bomb in every room of your home, but that largely depends on the level of infestation you have. A single fogger can likely treat most of your space, unless you have a lot of square footage to cover. However, you may need to use one or more per room depending on your needs, which an exterminator can likely determine. 

Nope, not typically, especially if a continuous food source is available. Rats will leave their nesting spots briefly to forage for food and water and then quickly return. The inherent danger of exposure keeps their departures short-lived. It's why resolving a minor infestation takes about three weeks, while a severe one can stretch to three months. Swift action is crucial to prevent rat populations from establishing a lasting presence.

If your stump has a pest problem, don’t worry; it won’t slow down the stump grinding process. It might even speed it up. But you may want to contact pest control afterward if it looks like a spreading infestation.

Technically, yes, chinch bugs can fly. However you won’t usually see them in flight. Chinch bugs like to stick close to the ground and they usually move around by hopping or crawling (which is why they can be hard to see). Since they don’t get much chance at flying, they’re pretty bad at it and only fly for short distances—like to nearby yards.

Heat is the most effective instant killer of bed bugs. Exposing them to temperatures above 131 degrees Fahrenheit for over an hour can eliminate them. Methods like steam cleaners and using a dryer on high heat are effective for this. Other options that can kill bed bugs on contact include EPA-approved pesticides, bleach, disinfectant sprays with alcohol, diatomaceous earth, and hydrogen peroxide. While freezing can work, it is not an instant solution, as it can take several days at 0 degrees Fahrenheit to be effective. Keep in mind that many DIY treatments won't reach bed bugs hidden in cracks or behind walls. For severe infestations or the most effective results, it is best to hire a professional exterminator for a professional heat or chemical treatment.
