Q: Is there anything I shouldn’t do when trying to get rid of snakes?

• <div><p>Even if you have extreme ophidiophobia (fear of snakes), don&rsquo;t try to shoot or kill them with a shovel. Besides being pretty cruel, killing snakes in most states is illegal unless your life is at risk and many species are protected. </p><p>Plus, you're putting yourself at greater risk using these techniques if it goes wrong and the now-angry snake is venomous.</p></div>

Q: Where do spiders lay eggs?

• <div><p>Spiders love dark, quiet, and protected places, especially when it comes to laying their eggs. Egg sacs are hidden in small webs that you may find in rarely-used wall corners and ceilings. Spiders are somewhat more likely to lay egg sacs against a house or inside a home to preserve them from the elements. These egg sacs are very durable and can hatch in anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.</p></div>

Q: What should I avoid using when baiting an iguana trap?

• <div><p>When baiting an iguana trap, several items should be avoided. Do not use poisonous baits, such as those intended for rats or mice. This practice is often illegal, is unlikely to attract iguanas, and poses a significant risk to pets or other wildlife. Additionally, avoid using herbs, fruits, and vegetables that are toxic to iguanas, such as fresh sage, rosemary, avocados, and eggplants. While ripe fruit can be an effective bait, be sure to remove any pits or seeds from fruits like apples, pears, and peaches, as they are highly toxic. Finally, steer clear of citrus fruits, which act as a natural deterrent.</p></div>
