Q: What do ants hate the most?

• <div><p>Ants hate strong odors such as peppermint, citrus, cinnamon, and essential oils such as lavender and eucalyptus.

Q: How many treatments does it take to get rid of bed bugs?

• <div><p>The number of treatments required to eliminate bed bugs varies depending on the severity of the infestation. Most cases require two to four treatments within a three- to six-week span.

To get rid of bed bugs as quickly as possible, it's best to investigate and treat them at the first sign of an issue.</p></div>

Q: What plants and scents deter stink bugs?

• <div><p>Stink bugs hate strong, fragrant scents like clove, lemongrass, spearmint, and Ylang Ylang, so you can use essential oils as a natural deterrent. (Always keep them out of reach of your pets!) In the garden, plants like lavender, garlic, and catnip can ward off stink bugs thanks to their pungent aroma. Also, avoid decorating with white, as stink bugs are oddly attracted to it. </p></div>
