What time of year are fleas worse?

• <div><p>Fleas thrive during the warmer months, starting in March and running through November. However, the prevalence of these pests depends on the climate in your state. That’s why it’s important to stay vigilant for fleas on your pets and property during spring, summer, and fall. Be sure to apply flea prevention sprays and medications to their coats as directed by a veterinarian. </p></div>

Do exterminators spray inside cabinets?

• <div><p>Yes, exterminators spray inside kitchen and other cabinets as part of a whole-home pest control treatment, especially when eradicating bugs that like to hide there, like roaches and ants.

Q: How hot does it need to be to kill bed bugs?

• <div><p>A temperature of <b>131 degrees Fahrenheit</b> for 72 minutes will kill bed bugs. Research suggests several different ranges, but many suggest starting at 120 degrees Fahrenheit and maintaining that heat for at least two hours. Steam cleaning is an exception because steam comes so hot it can quickly kill bed bugs and their eggs, making it a good option for fast extermination.</p></div>

Q: Do carpenter bees make honey?

• <div><p>Carpenter bees do not make honey like honey bees, but they are still essential pollinators. In fact, they have a unique talent called &quot;buzz pollination,&quot; in which they use the vibration from their wings to help release pollen from the flowers' anthers. Honey bees are also vital pollinators but do not use this process because they are too small and lack the strength required to buzz pollinate.</p></div>

Q: Where do spiders lay eggs?

• <div><p>Spiders love dark, quiet, and protected places, especially when it comes to laying their eggs. Egg sacs are hidden in small webs that you may find in rarely-used wall corners and ceilings. Spiders are somewhat more likely to lay egg sacs against a house or inside a home to preserve them from the elements. These egg sacs are very durable and can hatch in anywhere from a few weeks to a few months.</p></div>
