Can scorpions climb walls?

• <div><p>Scorpions can climb walls with rough surfaces (like stucco siding). They need something to grip onto, which is why they can easily climb on clothes, comforters on beds, and other items in your home.</p><p>However, it’s worth noting that scorpions cannot climb clean glass. So if you have a hole or damaged area where scorpions are coming in, a temporary fix may be to secure a piece of glass over the area.</p></div>

Q: Will fleas go away on their own?

• <div><p>Without treatment, it&rsquo;s unlikely that fleas will go away on their own. These pests can lay dozens of eggs per day, so their numbers can multiply quickly. Even without a host (like a pet, wild animal, or human) to feed on, fleas can survive for weeks. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s best to tackle a flea problem as soon as possible.</p></div>

Q: Can scorpions enter your home through AC vents?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re wondering whether scorpions can come in through your air vents , the answer is yes, unfortunately, they can. These pests are excellent climbers and can scale your home&rsquo;s exterior, squeezing through gaps as small as 1/16 inch . Scorpions are often attracted to the moisture around air conditioning ducts and may slip through small openings where the duct meets the vent cover. Once inside your walls, they can emerge through any accessible gap, including your AC vents, especially if the system isn&rsquo;t well-sealed.</p></div>

Q: Is it illegal to kill honey bees?

• <div><p>In many places, killing bees or destroying a hive is discouraged or regulated due to their crucial role as pollinators. Specific laws vary by region, and certain bee species are protected due to declining populations. Some states require permits or restrict who can remove or exterminate bee colonies. Always check local laws before attempting to manage or remove a beehive.</p></div>

Q: How do exterminators get rid of mice in walls?

• <div><p>Exterminators remove mice in walls by identifying entry points and sealing them to stop further access to these spaces. They may then open drywall to place food-scented traps inside for capture and then reseal to open and retrieve traps later. Next, they place traps along walls or baseboards inside, as mice tend to follow walls using their whiskers for guidance. Afterward, they may recommend repairs or modifications to prevent future infestations.</p></div>
