Q: Should I sleep with bed bugs?

• <div><p>While it may seem counterintuitive to continue sleeping in a room with bed bugs, it&rsquo;s the best option to avoid spreading the infestation to other rooms, homes, or surfaces. In the nights before your bed bug removal professional arrives, continue sleeping in the same bed, but wear as much protective clothing as possible, such as long pants, long socks, and long-sleeve shirts. That way, you&rsquo;ll limit the number of bites during the night.</p></div>

Q: Can pantry bugs get into sealed packages?

• <div><p>Pantry bugs are rarely able to get into sealed packages, but they may try. If you find pests on or around a sealed food item, check inside to make sure the food is still clean. Not sure whether a package is contaminated? Spread the contents onto a cookie sheet and use a flashlight to look for pests.</p></div>

Q: Should you get rid of paper wasps?

• <div><p>Whether you should get rid of paper wasps depends on a few factors. If you are dealing with a large population and have household members or pets that are being stung frequently, it&rsquo;s best to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-get-rid-wasps.htm">get rid of these wasps</a>. But they aren&rsquo;t all bad. Paper wasps feed on common garden pests, like caterpillars and beetle larva, that can harm your plants.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to sleep in a house with termites?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s safe to sleep in a house with termites. They don&rsquo;t bite or spread disease and they aren&rsquo;t likely to crawl on you or invade your personal space. However, termites can cause serious structural damage over time, which may compromise your home&rsquo;s safety if left untreated. If you suspect an infestation, it&rsquo;s best to schedule a professional inspection and treatment to prevent long-term risks to your property (not to mention your peace of mind). </p></div>

Q: Why is my house covered in lanternflies?

• <div><p>While the spotted lanternfly&rsquo;s favorite place to stay is the trees and plants they gorge on, they can occasionally congregate in large numbers on buildings and other structures. This may be for height, warmth, or other unknown reasons. However, rest assured that the insects do not do any structural damage to the buildings, and will likely move on within a few weeks or perish with the colder weather.</p></div>
