Q: Do cockroaches bite humans?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s very uncommon for roaches to bite humans. Cockroaches don&rsquo;t need humans for food and prefer to be elsewhere than on a living being. They have no poison or powerful pincers to cause any significant damage. However, in very bad infestations cockroaches have been known to search humans for dead skin cells, which leads to them nibbling around feet, hands, and eyelashes. They don&rsquo;t cause any serious harm, but this is an easy way to spread the diseases cockroaches carry.</p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover raccoon damage in an attic?

• <div><p>A standard homeowners insurance policy will often cover raccoon damage in an attic, on a roof, or in other areas of a home&rsquo;s structure. If you have raccoons removed and discover structural damage, file a claim. However, homeowners insurance typically won&rsquo;t cover the repair or replacement of personal items that you may have stored in an attic.</p></div>

Q: Will gnats eventually go away?

• <div><p>Gnats may eventually go away on their own, but it depends on the source of their attraction. If the environment that&rsquo;s attracting them&mdash;such as overwatered plants, moist areas, or food debris&mdash;isn't addressed, they can persist or even increase in numbers. Reducing moisture, improving drainage, and cleaning up organic matter can help eliminate them. Without these changes, gnats are likely to stick around and continue breeding, making it important to remove their breeding grounds to get rid of them for good.</p></div>

Q: What are foxes afraid of?

• <div><p>Hazing is an effective strategy for keeping foxes away from your yard because these wild animals are usually scared of people, loud noises, and sudden movements. If you have a large dog patrolling the yard, that&rsquo;s also usually a powerful deterrent for foxes. You can also use hazing to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-keep-badgers-away.htm">keep badgers away</a> from your yard, along with pests like raccoons and coyotes.</p></div>

Q: Is just one cockroach a reason to worry?

• <div><p>Yes. German cockroaches are masters at hiding. If you notice one cockroach, especially in daytime hours, it&rsquo;s very likely that other roaches aren&rsquo;t far behind, or that the problem is growing. You don&rsquo;t even need to see roaches to have warning bells go off: Many homeowners discover roach problems by noticing specks of droppings on the floor or roach smells.</p></div>
