Q: What should I do if I find a tick on my body?

• <div><p>Ticks are most commonly found behind (or even inside) ears, behind knees, in belly buttons, in the hair, and in your underarms. If you find a tick on your body or on your pet, use a pair of clean tweezers to grab the tick as close to the surface of your skin as possible. If you simply yank or twist it, you can leave the tick&rsquo;s mouth parts lodged in your skin and will need to remove those carefully with the tweezers. </p><p>Once you have removed the tick, flush it down the toilet and wash your skin with rubbing alcohol or soap and water. Know the <a href="https://www.cdc.gov/lyme/index.html">signs of lyme disease</a> such as fever, chills, headache, muscle aches, and a rash.</p></div>

Q: Do dryer sheets keep mice away?

• <div><p>Yes, dryer sheets can repel mice. Mice are sensitive to smells, and many dryer sheets have strong artificial fragrances like citrus, floral, lavender, vanilla, and woodland. Dryer sheets often continue to release scent for many days; some even last for an entire month, making your home unpleasant for mice. Also, dryer sheets are easy to rub around the house and place in drawers, vents, cupboards, and small holes.</p></div>

Q: What attracts brown recluse spiders?

• <div><p>The presence of insects or anything that might attract them (like food left out or poorly sealed trash cans), excessive outdoor lighting, and untended wood or cardboard boxes are just some of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-attracts-spiders.htm">what attracts spiders</a> in general. In particular, brown recluse spiders are drawn to dark spots with lots of nooks and crannies for nesting, like wood or dirt piles. </p></div>

Q: Are squash bugs and stink bugs the same?

• <div><p>There&rsquo;s no denying the striking resemblance, but squash bugs are different from the brown marmorated stink bug. While both are shield-shaped and emit a foul odor when crushed, they belong to different insect families and target different plants. Squash bugs primarily attack squash, pumpkins, and other cucurbits, while <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/where-do-stink-bugs-come-from.htm">stink bugs</a> have a much broader range of host plants, including fruits, vegetables, and ornamental plants. Their eggs and feeding damage also differ, making proper identification key for effective pest control.</p><p>Will coffee grounds get rid of squash bugs?</p><p>What smell do squash bugs hate?</p></div>

Q: What attracts bats to your yard?

• <div><p>Trees that provide a habitat to bats and an abundance of bugs&mdash;their main food source&mdash;will attract bats to your yard. Because the North American landscape has changed so much in recent years, bats have a harder time finding trees with cavities to shelter in.

"Elderly Beware! They didn't kill any of the weeds. Should have never let them continue for 5 months. They charged my mom and my daughter for the same service period and tried to charge a late fee when they had a credit card on file."

Family owned and operated full service pest control and extermination services.

"I live in an apartment and my property management company contracted with Superior for pest control. I and several other residents have been dealing with a cockroach infestation for several months now. During the last treatment visit, the technician was rude and unprofessional in his conduct towards me. When I said that not all the roaches were being killed (this was after two months of treatment), he lashed out and told me, "I'm trying to educate you and you're not listening." He also said that I should not expect all the roaches to be killed because he was just trying to keep them under control, not get rid of all of them. He said, "That's why it's called pest control." I expect exterminators to resolve a pest issue completely, not just make the situation a little better. If this had happened in a home that I owned, I would have kicked this man out immediately and found a different company."
