Roach spray usually starts working almost immediately on contact—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.

While taking a shower can help wash away fleas and their dirt from your body, it may not completely get rid of all of them. However, if you wash your clothes and bedding in hot water and dry them on the highest heat recommended for the fabric, it can further reduce the possibility of an infestation. However, even if just a few are left, they can reproduce and take over again, so it’s best to take additional measures and call a flea exterminator to ensure they’re gone for good.

There is often confusion between fleas versus ticks, bedbugs, carpet beetles, lice, fungus gnats, and flea beetles. Learning how to identify and differentiate between these insects is key for effective treatment. If you are unsure, it's always best to consult with a pest control professional who can properly identify the pest and provide the best treatment options.

You can get rid of raccoons quickly by making your home an undesirable place to live. Here are the best ways to get rid of raccoons fast:

• Repair broken vents and screens leading to your home.

• Seal open access points into your home. Many raccoons sneak in through the attic, roof, or chimney.

• Trim trees and branches so raccoons don’t have easy access to your roof and chimney. 

• Thoroughly clean out garbage cans, remove all trash, and secure the bins.

• Don’t keep food or water outside.

• Add raccoon guards to outdoor bird feeders. 

• Clean up brush around your home—raccoons like to gather loose yard materials for bedding.
