Q: Do bed bugs go away on their own?

• <div><p>Bed bugs typically will not go away on their own. If there are no humans or animals around, they will need to leave to find a host for feeding. But otherwise, bed bugs can live for several months to a year, and the adult females can lay hundreds more eggs in their lifetime. An infestation is only likely to get worse without <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-hire-reputable-pest-control-service.htm">hiring an exterminator.</a></p></div>

Q: Why won't squirrels go in my trap?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re having trouble with your traps, first examine them for flaws that would allow a squirrel to escape easily, such as loose doors or hinges. It&rsquo;s also important to consider the location of your trap: Place it in areas with higher squirrel traffic, and make sure it&rsquo;s on a sturdy surface so it can&rsquo;t wobble or tip (squirrels aren&rsquo;t likely to walk in a trap that isn&rsquo;t stable). Lastly, try changing out your bait&mdash;in-shell peanuts or peanut butter often work best.</p></div>

Q: Do possums carry diseases?

• <div><p>While possums don&rsquo;t typically carry rabies, they can have lice, fleas, ticks, and mites. According to the <a href="http://ipm.ucanr.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES/pn74123.html">University of California&rsquo;s Pest Management Program</a>, possums can also carry diseases like leptospirosis, tuberculosis, toxoplasmosis, coccidiosis, and fevers. Possums are also the carriers of a parasite that can pass to horses and cats called <a href="https://ceh.vetmed.ucdavis.edu/health-topics/equine-protozoal-myeloencephalitis-epm">Equine Protozoal Myeloencephalitis (EPM)</a>.</p></div>

Q: Do squash bugs come back every year?

• <div><p>Squash bugs only see one generation per year, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean they won&rsquo;t return. These persistent pests overwinter in garden debris, under leaves, and in nearby structures, emerging in the spring ready to start the cycle again. Without proper cleanup and preventative measures, you can expect squash bugs to come back each growing season, especially if you&rsquo;ve had issues with them in the past.</p></div>

Q: What happens to a roach when you spray it?

• <div><p>When you spray a roach, the chemicals, usually a mix of neurotoxins like pyrethroids or pyrethrins, start affecting its nervous system almost immediately. It disrupts the roach&rsquo;s nerve signals, causing paralysis and eventually death. You'll often see the roach twitch, flip over on its back, and stop moving within seconds to minutes.</p></div>
