Q: Do wasps come back after their nest is gone?

• <div><p>If there is food sources and other places to build a nest, wasps may come back after their nest is gone. However, if you take measures to repel wasps, like planting pest-repellent plants or sealing cracks and gaps around the outside of your home, they aren&rsquo;t likely to return. Be diligent at checking for new nests each spring to get rid of them as soon as possible and prevent bigger swarms of wasps in your yard.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to be worried about foxes passing on rabies?

• <div><p>Foxes can catch rabies. However, it is rare, and even rarer for them to pass this disease on to humans. If you do see a fox in your vicinity acting strangely, disorientated, having seizures, or randomly trying to bite, contact your local animal control, police, or Department of Environmental Control. And if you are scratched or bitten by an animal you suspect has rabies, seek medical treatment immediately.</p></div>

Q: What are common signs of a termite infestation?

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

Q: What should I do if a coyote comes toward me?

• <div><p>If a coyote approaches you, never run away, even if it goes against your natural instinct. Make yourself look big, shout loudly, and throw something in the coyote's direction. Be persistent and continue these scare tactics until they move away. Then, you should move away slowly, always facing the coyote.</p></div>

Q: Is it worth calling an exterminator for ants?

• <div><p>While it may cost more to hire an exterminator than trying to treat the problem yourself, a professional is worth hiring if you have a major infestation. If the problem is severe and the ants are causing damage to your home, then DIY methods may not be as effective as a professional treatment. Plus, if you have carpenter or fire ants it&rsquo;s best not to risk the damage they can cause to your home.</p></div>
