Q: What time of year are bees most likely to swarm?

• <div><p>Honey bees are most likely to swarm during spring and early summer, typically from April through June, as colonies expand and prepare for new growth. Swarming occurs when a hive becomes overcrowded, prompting the queen and a group of worker bees to leave in search of a new nesting site. During this time, you may notice a temporary increase in bee activity around your property.</p></div>

Q: What attracts woodpeckers?

• <div><p>Woodpeckers may seek out homes with aluminum siding or tin roofs because these surfaces echo their drumming. Homes with wood siding are more frequently targeted as roosting areas or for food sources. If you have insects living in the exposed wood in your home, the birds are likely looking for a snack, in which case your best option is to hire an exterminator.</p></div>

Q: How do I know if I have a scorpion in my home?

• <div><p>Because scorpions are active during the night, it can be hard to spot them&mdash;they are often hiding while you&rsquo;re up and about. They could be hiding in holes in your walls, behind large appliances, under your bed, in your closet, or even inside your shoes. But, if you&rsquo;ve seen one scorpion in your home, chances are there are more waiting in the darkness. If you&rsquo;re on the hunt for scorpions in your home, invest in a UV light, as all scorpions will glow under UV rays. </p></div>

Q: Can you trap rabbits?

• <div><p>Trapping is generally not recommended, as even gentle traps can become as inhumane as kill traps if a rabbit is caught and stuck for several days. Additionally, capturing one rabbit isn&rsquo;t likely to prevent other rabbits from wandering your yard. If you choose this method, it's essential to use live traps designed for humane capture and release of the rabbits in a suitable, safe habitat far from your property. Be sure to set a reminder and check the trap at least twice per day.</p></div>

Q: How can I prevent the flies from entering my home?

• <div><p>Keep flies out of your house by keeping the windows or doors closed, especially when cooking. You can also <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/are-window-screens-necessary.htm">install window screens</a> to prevent pests from entering your home while allowing a cool breeze to enter your home.</p></div>

Excellent! Within a short time the tech had identified the type of wasp and put my mind at ease that he would have them under control and that they were not aggressive to humans. He was professional, polite, and understanding. The wasp issue appears to have been resolved. Thank you DaNei!...
