Pest Control questions, answered by experts

If you’re dealing with a bee colony on your property, you might wonder if they’ll leave naturally over time. The answer depends on their circumstances. Bees often relocate if the hive becomes overcrowded, food is scarce, or they face a threat. With that said, if a hive’s location is safe, warm, and with plentiful food sources, they are unlikely to relocate on their own, and the hive may persist for many generations.

The easiest way to determine whether you have rats or mice is to see the rodent. Mice are much smaller than any species of rats. It’s similar to comparing your thumb to your entire palm. As a result, rat nests are typically larger, too. But if you can’t see any pests or find their nests, telling them apart may be difficult without a professional inspection.

If you find droppings from the invading rodent, take a glance before you clean them up. Rat droppings are larger and rounder than mouse droppings (which are pointed).

Yes, stink bugs can play dead. Stink bugs don’t just release bad odors, they have a defense mechanism to pretend to be dead, even when flicked over and swept into a trash bin. That’s how stink bugs may keep coming back even if you thought you got rid of them.

Roaches have a strong sense of smell, and they hate fragrances such as citrus, lavender, eucalyptus, and mint. You can use these scents in cleaning products, as room fresheners, or with plants throughout your home to deter roaches. Using these plants in your garden can also work to keep roaches from entering the home. You can even use these as ingredients to a natural roach repellent.  

Bed bug extermination costs between $1,000 and $2,500 on average. While the price is often relatively steep, this is the best way to eradicate a bed bug infestation as soon as possible. Your total extermination budget will vary depending on the treatment location and the infestation’s severity.
