Pest Control questions, answered by experts

While the term “gnat” is often used as a blanket term for tiny flying insects like fungus gnats and fruit flies, they are different insects. The primary distinctions are in their appearance, diet, and habitat. Fungus gnats are typically darker (gray or black) with long legs and are attracted to damp soil and decaying plant matter, often living in houseplants. In contrast, fruit flies are lighter in color (tan) with shorter legs and are drawn to overripe fruit, high-fructose organic substances, and other sweet materials.

Hiring a professional house cleaner costs between $120 and $240 per visit. Most homeowners can expect to pay an average of $170 for a cleaning and disinfecting service. House cleaning services may include disinfection of high-touch surfaces, but it’s best to ask your cleaner to be sure it’s included in their services.

The most widely touted method for removing fruit flies is the combination of apple cider vinegar and dish soap. Since the soap causes the flies to sink, you can leave this trap open for maximum potency and easy fly access.

Foxes are primarily nocturnal, meaning you’re less likely to see one strutting onto your lawn in the middle of the day. However, daytime activity is more common if you have a female with her cubs on your property during the spring and summer. And you can see adaptable urban foxes at any time when regular food is available.

It’s difficult to be sure bed bugs are gone, especially with DIY methods. Any treatment you use should also include dedicated beg bug traps to pick up stragglers and help you monitor how many are left. It usually takes around three weeks to clean up remaining bed bugs and make sure they aren’t returning any time soon. Hiring a bed bug exterminator can decrease the amount of time it takes to remove these pests.
