Q: Do wasps come back after their nest is gone?

• <div><p>If there is food sources and other places to build a nest, wasps may come back after their nest is gone. However, if you take measures to repel wasps, like planting pest-repellent plants or sealing cracks and gaps around the outside of your home, they aren&rsquo;t likely to return. Be diligent at checking for new nests each spring to get rid of them as soon as possible and prevent bigger swarms of wasps in your yard.</p></div>

Q: Can bears smell food in your house?

• <div><p>Yes, bears can smell through walls if they are close enough. Estimates vary, but experts say bears can smell up to a maximum distance between one and 20 miles. Food inside a house does not attract bears to the degree that food left outside does, though.</p></div>

Q: How do I prevent animals from building a nest in my house?

• <div><p>Once the animals and their young are out of the house, remove the nest and locate any entry points. Some may be difficult to find because some animals can fit through very small holes. Once you&rsquo;ve located as many entry points as possible, use materials such as metal or masonry to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-ways-keep-critters-away-your-home.htm">block off the entry</a>. Ideally, you should choose materials that most animals cannot chew through. Create a one-way door or flap to allow animals to leave but not return. Additional methods include using repellants designed to make an area unappealing to the types of animals that find your home so inviting. </p></div>

Q: Does vinegar keep animals away?

• <div><p>Vinegar can keep some animals at bay, like deer, rabbits, foxes, and raccoons. Keep in mind that your household pets, like cats and dogs, also don&rsquo;t like the smell of vinegar. You can soak rags in white vinegar and put them up around your garden beds to keep the pesky critters from eating your plants.</p></div>

Q: Why do scorpions enter homes?

• <div><p>Scorpions may be native to desert climates, but they are nocturnal and like to find shelter in dark, cool places during the day. Your home has many ideal spots to conceal themselves in. Beyond that, they can get all the food they need from the other insects or spiders hiding in the walls of your home, and your air conditioning vents likely have condensation to provide them with cool water to drink. </p></div>
