Q: Can I smoke animals out of my attic?

• <div><p>Some stores sell smoke bombs to drive animals out of spaces, but we don&rsquo;t recommend you use them, especially in an attic. The smoke can be toxic to humans or pets that may accidentally inhale it. Meanwhile, critters can easily escape the smoke by temporarily leaving the attic, only to return via their usual entry points after the smoke clears.</p></div>

Q: Do rabbits eat mint and other herbs?

• <div><p>Rabbits have a penchant for plants, relishing herbs, veggies, fruits, and grasses. Common herbs like mint, basil, and cilantro are fair game for rabbits. In fact, leafy greens such as mint and thyme are rabbit favorites. Not only do bunnies find it yummy, but it packs health benefits when consumed in small amounts.</p></div>

Q: Can humans carry fleas?

• <div><p>Yes, humans carry fleas. Although fleas are primarily associated with dogs and cats, they are attracted to the warmth and carbon dioxide of mammals, including humans. The difference is that most fleas will only choose animals as their hosts. They may bite humans, but they don&rsquo;t tend to stick around on humans for long. The one exception is the<i> Pulex irritans</i>, also called the human flea, which prefers human blood.</p></div>

Q: What are the early warning signs of a bed bug infestation?

• <div><p>One of the first signs of bed bugs are reddish stains on your sheets. These stains get left behind when bed bugs get crushed. Some other signs to look out for are small dark dots, small red bites, and pale molted skins.</p></div>

Q: What can scorpions not climb?

• <div><p>Scorpions have a hard time climbing smooth, non-porous surfaces like glass, smooth metal, and slick plastic. Their pincers and legs are designed for gripping rough or textured materials, so they struggle to gain traction on slick vertical surfaces. This is why glass containers or traps are often used to safely contain them. Keeping furniture or bed frames away from walls and using smooth materials as a block can help limit their ability to climb into sleeping or resting areas.</p></div>
