Q: What will kill adult fleas?

• <div><p>The same heat treatment that&rsquo;s effective on flea eggs will also destroy the adults. There are four stages of the flea life cycle&mdash;egg, larva, pupa, and adult&mdash;and you&rsquo;ll have to keep all of them in mind when taking on a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-pests-most-likely-invade-your-home-and-how-get-rid-them.htm">pest infestation in your home</a>.</p></div>

Q: Are groundhogs aggressive?

• <div><p>Groundhogs are non-aggressive animals that are afraid of humans. They forage for vegetation in yards and gardens, so they can often be seen as a nuisance if you spot one on your property. That said, if you happen to get bitten or scratched by a fearful groundhog, be sure to get checked by a doctor, as they could carry infections or diseases like rabies, Lyme, or the rare tularemia.</p></div>

Q: What do foxes hate the most?

• <div><p>Foxes hate strong scents and sudden disturbances. They dislike the smell of ammonia, vinegar, garlic, chili peppers, and predator urine, which can make an area less appealing. Motion-activated lights and sprinklers also unsettle them, as foxes prefer to avoid sudden movements and bright lights. Additionally, they are wary of loud noises and unexpected sounds.</p></div>

Q: Should I hire an animal removal specialist instead of calling my local municipality?

• <div><p>You might be tempted to call your local municipality to remove animals from your property, such as a groundhog burrowing in your yard or raccoons getting into your trash cans. However, they typically only remove domestic animals like dogs and cats from properties, or sick and injured wildlife that pose a public safety risk or health threat, such as a rabid animal. They typically do not capture or remove healthy wildlife.</p><p>Animal removal professionals have the tools, knowledge, and skills to trap and remove wild animals adequately and humanely. They also can relocate them correctly.</p></div>

Q: Why is flea control important for homes with pets?

• <div><p>Flea control stops infestation spread, protecting pets' health by preventing skin allergies and other flea-induced conditions.</p></div>

The job was completed on time and looks great. The cement that was cleaned looks good, in addition the mold on front of house was removed. One minor issue is that at the end (about 3 feet) of the west side gutter on the front of the house some dirt is still visible on the underside of the gutter.
