Pest Control questions, answered by experts

The most effective natural roach repellent is Borax with its key ingredient of boric acid and diatomaceous earth. But some homeowners may not feel like these are “natural” enough, especially since you can’t use Borax around curious pets or toddlers.

On the other hand, studies have shown that oregano oil mixtures have some of the best repellent effects, and other research indicates that catnip oil, peppermint oil, and citrus oils have notable effects on keeping roaches away. Rosemary oil has been shown to be the most effective natural oil for killing cockroaches outright.

Red bite marks, blood spots on sheets, and small brown fecal stains near sleeping areas are common signs.

While taking a shower can help wash away fleas and their dirt from your body, it may not completely get rid of all of them. However, if you wash your clothes and bedding in hot water and dry them on the highest heat recommended for the fabric, it can further reduce the possibility of an infestation. However, even if just a few are left, they can reproduce and take over again, so it’s best to take additional measures and call a flea exterminator to ensure they’re gone for good.

If you’re wondering whether scorpions can come in through your air vents , the answer is yes, unfortunately, they can. These pests are excellent climbers and can scale your home’s exterior, squeezing through gaps as small as 1/16 inch . Scorpions are often attracted to the moisture around air conditioning ducts and may slip through small openings where the duct meets the vent cover. Once inside your walls, they can emerge through any accessible gap, including your AC vents, especially if the system isn’t well-sealed.

Badgers have a strong sense of smell, so it’s possible you can deter them with strong scents, such as applying citronella oil to the bottom of your fence, adding crushed scotch bonnet peppers sprinkled throughout your garden, or mixing both of these into a solution to spray around your home and garden.
