Q: How long does it take roach spray to work?

• <div><p>Roach spray usually starts working almost immediately on contact&mdash;within seconds to a few minutes. However, if it's a residual spray designed to keep killing over time, it can take hours or even days to fully affect roaches that come into contact with treated surfaces. For larger infestations, it may take at least a week to see a noticeable drop in activity, since not all roaches are exposed at once.</p></div>

Q: How do you stop frogs from croaking at night?

• <div><p>Consider making some noise if you're looking for a straightforward way to put a damper on excessive frog croaking. You don't need to orchestrate a symphony&mdash;simple actions like stomping or clapping with gusto can work wonders. You can also try blasting music, but that won't help you make friends with your neighbors. A simpler solution might be learning to live with it. You can try soundproofing your bedroom with heavy-duty noise-reducing curtains.</p></div>

Q: Why might moles be drawn to my property?

• <div><p>The simple answer is that food attracts moles to your yard. These creatures have a powerful sense of smell, and they&rsquo;re looking for their next meal, i.e., grubs, earthworms, ants, and other insects. Moist, loose soil also makes it easier for them to travel, so an overwatered lawn could attract them. Male moles might make their way into your yard to expand their territory or look for a new mate. And if your neighbor has moles, there&rsquo;s a good chance they may tunnel over to your yard.</p></div>

Q: What smells attract roaches?

• <div><p>Cockroaches are attracted to the smell of food. They're particularly attracted to grease, meat, cheese, sugar, and starch. Any rotten food such as fruits or vegetables puts off a strong odor that attracts the pests as well. Even dirty clothing can be enticing for cockroaches, which is why they're often found in laundry baskets.</p></div>
