Q: What smells drive away cockroaches?

• <div><p>Many scents are claimed to be roach deterrents and in some cases roaches will try to avoid them. That includes peppermint, eucalyptus, and citronella. But these scents aren&rsquo;t much use for driving cockroaches away entirely -- roaches can live in horrible conditions and a few smells they don&rsquo;t like won&rsquo;t make them give up. Also, sprays made using these scents be irritating to your pet&rsquo;s delicate nose. Instead, it&rsquo;s best to turn to the remedies we listed above. </p></div>

Q: Should I be worried if I see a carpet beetle?

• <div><p>While carpet beetles won&rsquo;t bite you like bed bugs do, they still aren&rsquo;t pests you&rsquo;d want to find in your home. Carpet beetles in their larva stage can be voracious and cause a lot of damage as they eat through fabrics on furniture, clothing, bedding, rugs, and other materials. If you see carpet beetles, you&rsquo;ll want to have an exterminator come by to assess the damage and control the infestation.</p></div>

Q: Can you get rid of wolves naturally?

• <div><p>Yes, you can get rid of wolves naturally using nonlethal deterrents, like motion-activated lighting or loud music. You can also get rid of wolves with the same methods that apply to keeping other wildlife away&mdash;strong and tall fencing, a guard dog, and a clean property free from potential food sources. </p></div>

Q: What is the best bait for fruit flies?

• <div><p>While there are many sweet, ripe, or fermented items that attract fruit flies, the clear winner is apple cider vinegar. The liquid is sweet, potent, and fermented, making it the perfect bait for luring fruit flies into your trap.</p></div>

Q: What’s the most common wood-eating pest?

• <div><p>While there are many types of wood-eating pests, the most common one in the United States is termites. They are found in every state and are typically worse in warm and humid climates. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-common-myths-about-swarming-termites.htm">They cause billions of dollars in damage</a> every year, which is why it&rsquo;s vital that homeowners address infestations as soon as possible.</p></div>

"They did not have to dig a trench around my house. They used a machine to inject chemical into soil. The technician told me if I dug up shrubs (disturb the soil) to let them know, and they would retreat that section. Also when new pine straw was added let them know. I use this company for my Qtrly pest control also."
