Q: Are earwigs dangerous to humans or pets?

• <div><p>Earwigs may look scary with their pincers, but they don&rsquo;t pose a serious threat to humans or pets. They are not poisonous, do not sting, and rarely bite or pinch unless handled. While they are not known to transmit diseases, their presence can signal underlying moisture problems in your home, such as mold, water damage, or rotting wood. A large infestation can become a nuisance, and certain species may emit an unpleasant odor. Therefore, while earwigs themselves aren&rsquo;t dangerous, a large number of them may indicate bigger issues that should be addressed by a pest control professional.</p></div>

Q: What is the process for treating a bed bug infestation?

• <div><p>Our comprehensive approach includes inspection, treatment with safe and effective methods, and follow-up to ensure elimination.</p></div>

Q: When are foxes most active?

• <div><p>Foxes are primarily nocturnal, meaning you&rsquo;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.</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>

Q: Does one scorpion mean more?

• <div><p>Spotting a single scorpion in the home doesn&rsquo;t mean you have a full-blown infestation, but it does mean there&rsquo;s a way for them to get inside. Other scorpions could easily use the same method, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-scorpions-come-through-air-vents.htm">entering through an air vent</a>, as these arachnids are social creatures that tend to live in groups. If you see a baby scorpion, however, that likely indicates a nest somewhere in the home. This is also true if you spot a scorpion with an infant on its back. </p></div>

"Upon inspection, the tech would give us information that would decrease the probability of pests. One example is that we should get rid of the peony plants on the side of the house as they attract ants. He also notified us of some damage to our roof that could allow water to seep in (which in turn would attract bugs)
