Q: What are common signs of a termite infestation?

• <div><p>Mud tubes, wood damage, and swarming are typical indicators.</p></div>

Q: How do you draw bed bugs out of hiding?

• <div><p>Bed bugs are highly sensitive to heat, so a hot blast with a hairdryer can draw them out of hiding. Providing a source of warmth, such as a heating pad or hot-water bottle, can attract and lure them out. Bed bug monitors and traps with pheromones can also be effective. </p></div>

Q: Do mice become rats?

• <div><p>No, mice do not become rats. While their similarities may make them appear to be the same animal at first, they are distinct in their appearance, behaviors, and the strategies used to remove them. Juvenile rats that have not reached their full adult size may be roughly the same size as mice, making them hard to tell apart.</p></div>

Q: How to heat up a room to kill bed bugs?

• <div><p>To heat up a room to kill bed bugs, you&rsquo;ll need to put either a portable heat chamber or hot dryer in the space. Larger heat chambers can be used to heat up furniture, while only professional heating systems can heat an entire home or structure at a high enough temperature to kill bed bugs. Keep in mind that this method is most effective when done by a bed bug professional with professional-grade equipment to eradicate the bed bugs without damaging your home.</p></div>

Q: Where are fleas most likely to hide?

• <div><p>Fleas <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/where-do-fleas-hide.htm">are master hiders</a>, so they&rsquo;re always looking for safe spots. In addition to living directly on your pets, they&rsquo;re likely to hide in bedding materials, not unlike the infamous bed bugs. They also like carpet and thick grass, for similar reasons. They&rsquo;re more likely to hang around dirt and debris in general, which is why it&rsquo;s important to keep the home clean. </p></div>
