Q: Can I sleep in my house after pest control?

• <div><p>Yes, sleeping in your house after receiving a pest control application should be no issue, but the best course of action is to wait for the treatment to dry completely. The drying process takes a few hours. Some treatments, such as fumigation, may require a longer drying time, so be sure to ask the technician what drying time you can expect. </p></div>

Q: What methods do pest control professionals use to eliminate wasps?

• <div><p>The technician's removal method will depend on the species of wasps, the nest&rsquo;s location, and the severity of the infestation. However, many methods are available to remove wasps , such as aerosols, dusting, liquids, and vacuuming. Once the wasps are exterminated, the technician will remove the nest to prevent re-infestation.</p></div>

Q: What smell will keep bats away?

• <div><p>Certain smells do repel bats, though this isn&rsquo;t a foolproof method. Try applying essential oil sprays like mint, eucalyptus, cinnamon, or peppermint to possible entry points and throughout the attic. Mix together two cups of warm water with a half cup of sugar and a few drops of your preferred essential oil. Put this mixture in a spray bottle and go to town.</p></div>

Q: Do squash bugs bite?

• <div><p>Squash bugs don&rsquo;t bite humans or pets. Their piercing-sucking mouthparts are designed specifically for feeding on plants, not people. While they can be a major nuisance in the garden, they pose no direct physical threat to you, and you don&rsquo;t need to worry about bites, stings, or venom from these pests.</p></div>

Q: Are water bugs just big roaches?

• <div><p>No, water bugs are not big roaches. Water bugs and cockroaches are different insects entirely, belonging to different orders. They are often confused for one another because they are similar in appearance, but water bugs and cockroaches have close-up differences in how they look, plus they behave and feed in very different ways.</p></div>
