Q: Will rain affect a professional mosquito treatment application?

• <div><p>Whether rain affects a professional mosquito treatment depends on the treatment type, the quantity and intensity of rain involved, and how soon after the treatment it rains. Larvicides, for example, are often applied to water sources where mosquitoes lay their eggs, so it won&rsquo;t matter if it rains. Some <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/spraying-yard-misquitos.htm">barrier sprays</a> need sufficient time before the next rainfall to penetrate the surfaces properly and do their work.</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>

Q: Will pest-repellent plants kill animals?

• <div><p>Some of the plants listed above, like daffodils, are poisonous to many animals if eaten. But wild animals instinctively avoid them, for the most part. Household pets don&rsquo;t always have the same survival instinct, which is why it&rsquo;s a good idea to familiarize yourself with common plants that pose a danger to cats and dogs.</p></div>

Q: What questions should I ask when hiring a pro to remove pests?

• <div><p>To make sure the removal process goes smoothly, try asking your pro the following questions: </p><ul><li><p>Are you licensed and insured? </p></li><li><p>How much experience do you have with relocating beehives? </p></li><li><p>Do you remove the honey and honeycomb? </p></li><li><p>Do you relocate the bees alive? </p></li><li><p>Do you have any references from previous clients?</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: What bug looks like a tick but isn't?

• <div><p>Several bugs can look like ticks but aren&rsquo;t, including beetles, bed bugs, spider beetles, and weevils. Aside from different types of beetles, the most common confusion is between <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/ticks-vs-bed-bugs.htm">ticks versus bed bugs</a>. In any case, since a tick is an eight-legged arachnid, you can quickly differentiate by the number of legs, as all insects have six legs. </p></div>

Pest Control questions, answered by experts

Whether rain affects a professional mosquito treatment depends on the treatment type, the quantity and intensity of rain involved, and how soon after the treatment it rains. Larvicides, for example, are often applied to water sources where mosquitoes lay their eggs, so it won’t matter if it rains. Some barrier sprays need sufficient time before the next rainfall to penetrate the surfaces properly and do their work.

Fleas are master hiders, so they’re always looking for safe spots. In addition to living directly on your pets, they’re likely to hide in bedding materials, not unlike the infamous bed bugs. They also like carpet and thick grass, for similar reasons. They’re more likely to hang around dirt and debris in general, which is why it’s important to keep the home clean.

Household pets don’t always have the same survival instinct, which is why it’s a good idea to familiarize yourself with common plants that pose a danger to cats and dogs.

To make sure the removal process goes smoothly, try asking your pro the following questions:

Are you licensed and insured?
How much experience do you have with relocating beehives?
Do you remove the honey and honeycomb?
Do you relocate the bees alive?
Do you have any references from previous clients?

Several bugs can look like ticks but aren’t, including beetles, bed bugs, spider beetles, and weevils. Aside from different types of beetles, the most common confusion is between ticks versus bed bugs. In any case, since a tick is an eight-legged arachnid, you can quickly differentiate by the number of legs, as all insects have six legs.
