Q: Where is the best place to put a squirrel trap?

• <div><p>Squirrels tend to forage, traveling along roof and fence lines. To trap a squirrel, placing a baited trap on the roof near the point of entry is the best option. If you can see them going in and out or recognize the damage they might be causing to the exterior of your home, you can also try placing traps near those locations.</p></div>

Q: Do cockroaches come out more after you spray?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s actually common to see more cockroaches after you spray. It might seem like things are getting worse, but that&rsquo;s usually a sign the treatment is working. Roach sprays and baits can flush them out of their hiding spots as they try to escape the chemicals. You might notice them acting strangely&mdash;slower, twitching, or out during the day when they&rsquo;re usually hiding.</p></div>

Q: Can you spray bug spray in air vents?

• <div><p>You should not spray pesticides of any kind into your air vents. The spray won&rsquo;t reach far into the vent, minimizing its effectiveness in killing roaches, but more importantly, it&rsquo;s dangerous for people and pets to inhale these chemicals.
