What does a squirrel in a chimney sound like?

• <div><p>A squirrel in a chimney may sound like gnawing since they like to chew through a wide range of materials.

Q: What will kill flea eggs?

• <div><p>Flea eggs can&rsquo;t take heat, so use that information to your advantage. Take any affected clothes and linens and wash them on a hot setting (140℉ or higher) to kill them off. You can also rid carpets and furniture using heat. After vacuuming all surfaces thoroughly, use a steam mop or cleaner to get rid of the remaining flea eggs and residue. </p><p>Flea eggs also can&rsquo;t handle extreme cold. You could seal affected linens and store them in a freezer. </p></div>

Q: Do roaches ever completely go away?

• <div><p>Getting roaches to completely go away will take a lot of effort, and they hardly ever go away on their own. You will likely need a combination of home treatments, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/whats-best-cockroach-killer.htm">roach sprays</a> and traps, and regular visits from an exterminator, to control an infestation. It can take awhile for these treatments to start working, and you&rsquo;ll need to stay on top of replacing old traps and having additional extermination services, plus keeping your home clean and decluttered, to deter roaches.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to be in the house after pest control?

• <div><p>Yes, it is generally safe to return to your house once the pest control professionals have granted permission. Keep in mind that you&rsquo;ll only need to evacuate your home during extreme pest control treatments, such as whole-home fumigation, while more minor treatments don&rsquo;t require leaving. When you return home, be sure to follow the pest pro&rsquo;s instructions carefully, especially those surrounding wait times and safety precautions.</p></div>
