Q: How do you get rid of gnats in the bathroom?

• <div><p>Clean your drains with either a bleach solution or a mixture of apple cider vinegar, baking soda, and boiling water. Repeat the process several times in one week to ensure you've killed the whole nest.</p></div>

Q: Why are there suddenly bugs in my house?

• <div><p>Having bugs in our houses is quite normal. However, if you notice a sudden uptick in quantity, there's often a reason behind it. Seasonal weather changes, particularly warm to cool, drive bugs indoors as they look for comfort. Structural damage to your home can open up new ways for them to get in, and a new water leak somewhere in the house can invite them to get comfortable.</p></div>

Q: Are moles dangerous?

• <div><p>Ground moles are not typically dangerous. They're not known to carry rabies like many other wild animals, such as raccoons, skunks, and bats. And they don't typically bite humans, although it's possible if they feel threatened. If you do get bitten by a mole, it's best to see a physician to be safe, but most often, the bite will heal on its own unless it gets infected.</p></div>

Q: What diseases can raccoons spread?

• <div><p>Raccoons can spread viruses and bacteria to humans and pets, including rabies, canine and feline distemper, parvovirus, Salmonella, and leptospirosis. These can all cause a range of illnesses.</p></div>

Q: Do dryer sheets keep squirrels away?

• <div><p>Whether dryer sheets can keep squirrels away is a bit of a mystery because the evidence is entirely anecdotal. Many households claim to have success with using dryer sheets for keeping squirrels away by placing them throughout their attics, yards, on a clothesline, and any other area where squirrels like to run through. Squirrels do not like strong scents, so if you try using dryer sheets, the ones with the strongest scent may be the most effective.</p></div>

A quality product, well informed from estimate to completion. The crew was hard working and enjoyed their job. Their craftmanship focused on the details. Their high quality daily production considered exposure of a finish end-point each day so as not to expose the roof to the weather.
