Q: Can fleas live in human hair?

• <div><p>Typically, fleas won&rsquo;t take up residence in human hair. Their natural preference is to live on the fur of animals, but they can bite and infest humans on a temporary basis. If there is a significant flea infestation in the surrounding environment, humans may inadvertently become a host. Again, though, this is a rare occurrence. </p></div>

Q: What time of year are bees most likely to swarm?

• <div><p>Honey bees are most likely to swarm during spring and early summer, typically from April through June, as colonies expand and prepare for new growth. Swarming occurs when a hive becomes overcrowded, prompting the queen and a group of worker bees to leave in search of a new nesting site. During this time, you may notice a temporary increase in bee activity around your property.</p></div>

Q: What’s the most common wood-eating pest?

• <div><p>While there are many types of wood-eating pests, the most common one in the United States is termites. They are found in every state and are typically worse in warm and humid climates. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-common-myths-about-swarming-termites.htm">They cause billions of dollars in damage</a> every year, which is why it&rsquo;s vital that homeowners address infestations as soon as possible.</p></div>

Q: What attracts brown recluse spiders to your house?

• <div><p>Brown recluse spiders are attracted to homes in search of warm, dry, and dark spots that provide easy access to insects. An existing bug problem is a primary attractant, as spiders follow their food source. Other factors that attract brown recluse spiders include the presence of anything that might lure insects, such as food left out or poorly sealed trash cans. They are also drawn to excessive outdoor lighting, untended wood or cardboard boxes, and dark areas with nooks and crannies for nesting, like woodpiles or dirt piles.</p></div>

Q: Are German cockroach traps safe for pets?

• <div><p>Gel bait and gel bait traps use poison to kill cockroaches, and aren&rsquo;t safe to use around pets. Many gel bait traps are called &ldquo;child-resistant,&rdquo; but this only means that the traps are hard to rip open for children. Large pets and children are still able to swallow them. If you use gel bait, use it in areas where pets and children can&rsquo;t access them, such as under a washing machine. Another option is to use glue traps, which don&rsquo;t contain pesticides and are safe to use around pets. </p></div>

"Very friendly tech came to examine our house. He was really late, but this did not matter - lost his way. The cost was way beyond what we are willing to pay for pest control (over $1000) but we do have a fairly problematic carpenter bee problem."
