Yellow jackets are a type of wasp in the Vespula and Dolichovespula genera. Hornets are another type of wasp in the Vespa genus. Hornets and yellow jackets are closely related and are both known for being large and aggressive. They are often confused with one another, too. For example, the bald-faced hornet is actually a yellow jacket, and the European hornet, a true hornet, looks much like a yellow jacket.

Naturally get rid of gnats by luring them into a homemade trap with sweet-smelling items from around the house. Cover a bowl with plastic wrap, place a paper cone in a jar, or simply leave a wine bottle with a bit of residue on the bottom. Each of these traps will attract remaining gnats and keep them from spreading.

The best way to permanently get rid of skunks is by setting up deterrents around your property to keep skunks out. Get rid of skunks permanently by:

• Not leaving food or water outside

• Installing a motion-sensor sprinkler system

• Installing fencing that’s at least 3 feet high and a foot deep

• Adding motion-sensor lights in the yard

• Cleaning up brush, sticks, woodpiles, and leaves on your property so skunks can’t use the materials for a nest

• Seal up cracks and holes around your property to prevent skunks from building a den

• Placing fresh lemon peels around the perimeter of your home
