Q: Will skunks leave on their own?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible that skunks will leave on their own. Skunks may appear briefly on your property and move on if they cannot find food. However, waiting them out is not a foolproof solution. If the skunk finds a food source on or near your property and builds a nest, the animal will almost certainly not choose to move. If you can eliminate food sources, you&rsquo;ll have a better chance of seeing the skunk leave on its own. </p></div>

Q: Do squash bugs come back every year?

• <div><p>Squash bugs only see one generation per year, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean they won&rsquo;t return. These persistent pests overwinter in garden debris, under leaves, and in nearby structures, emerging in the spring ready to start the cycle again. Without proper cleanup and preventative measures, you can expect squash bugs to come back each growing season, especially if you&rsquo;ve had issues with them in the past.</p></div>

Q: What baits are unsafe or illegal to use for possums?

• <div><p>You should never use toxic baits or poisons, such as rodenticides designed for mice and rats, to kill or trap possums. Using these toxicants is illegal in many areas and can lead to fines or other penalties. Furthermore, these poisons can cause unnecessary suffering for the animal and pose a significant risk of accidental poisoning to pets or other neighborhood wildlife. Instead of using poisons, it is best to stick with humane methods like live trapping.</p></div>

Q: Are skunks hard to get rid of?

• <div><p>Luckily, skunks aren&rsquo;t challenging to get rid of. You can try to remove them slowly by filling their den entryway loosely with newspaper. Many skunks notice their den is in jeopardy and take off on their own. You can also try making a homemade spray of jalapeno pepper, yellow onion, and cayenne pepper&mdash;believe it or not, skunks are sensitive to these smells, so if you spray this around the den or in hard-to-reach places around your property, most skunks will take the hint and leave. </p></div>

Q: Where do phorid flies lay eggs in the house?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll find that phorid fly larvae breed in moist, decaying, organic matter. When trying to locate a breeding site, thoroughly inspect the following places in your home: drain pipes, trash cans, garbage disposal, pet waste, rotting produce, plants, compost bins, and even under appliances like the stove and refrigerator where moist food may have dropped. It&rsquo;s also possible for a breeding site to form inside of a wall, crawl space, or under your home&rsquo;s foundation.</p></div>

Very satisfied. I would call this company again for their complete service. A real person answered ( a very informed lady) when I called Sunday morning at 9:00 am. I am just glad the first company I called did not answer. I now have a drain tub under my new water heater. Stivers even worked out...
