Q: Do I need to worry about rats in my yard but not in my house?

• <div><p>Seeing a rat or two isn&rsquo;t uncommon, especially in mild climates. That doesn&rsquo;t mean they are actively a danger to your home. The problem is when you start seeing rats regularly in your yard, there&rsquo;s a good chance they are also looking for ways to get into your house or other buildings. All they need is a small hole or gap, and they have a new place to nest -- which is bad news for you. Stay cautious if you start seeing rats in your yard all the time. </p></div>

Q: Does one scorpion mean more?

• <div><p>Spotting a single scorpion in the home doesn&rsquo;t mean you have a full-blown infestation, but it does mean there&rsquo;s a way for them to get inside. Other scorpions could easily use the same method, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-scorpions-come-through-air-vents.htm">entering through an air vent</a>, as these arachnids are social creatures that tend to live in groups. If you see a baby scorpion, however, that likely indicates a nest somewhere in the home. This is also true if you spot a scorpion with an infant on its back. </p></div>

Q: What do bed bugs do to your body?

• <div><p>Bed bugs bite your body to feed on blood. When they bite, they inject an anticoagulant, which is why you may see blood stains on your sheets if you have an infestation. The bed bugs tend to bite in clusters, so the bite marks will look like itchy, red spots in zigzagging lines of three to five bites per cluster on your skin.</p><p>The bites are itchy, but for most people, they do not cause serious or long-term health complications. Itching the wound excessively could lead to an infection, and some people are allergic to bed bugs.</p></div>

Q: What does baking soda do to fleas?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s been said that baking soda can kill fleas as it may dry out eggs and larvae. However, this method has not been proven to be effective in killing fleas or other pests. However, you can use it to absorb smells so if there is a fragrance you believe is attracting fleas or ticks, you can use baking soda to rid the smell to control it.</p></div>

Q: What can you put around your house to keep raccoons away?

• <div><p>Although raccoons aren&rsquo;t particularly picky regarding food, certain sounds, metals, and smells bother them. You can place these items around your home to keep raccoons away:</p><ul><li><p>Place wire mesh screens around and underneath decks and porches to prevent raccoons from nesting. </p></li><li><p>Put metal sheeting around the edges of your roof or at the base of trees to deter raccoons from coming close. </p></li><li><p>Place a loud battery-operated radio near the raccoon&rsquo;s den to keep them from nesting.</p></li><li><p>Keep a bowl of cider vinegar on your deck or porch.</p></li><li><p>Remove old raccoon scents by thoroughly cleaning and disinfecting underneath porches and decks.</p></li></ul><p></p></div>
