Q: Are yellow jackets a wasp or hornet?

• <div><p>Yellow jackets are a type of wasp in the Vespula and Dolichovespula genera. Hornets are another type of wasp in the Vespa genus. Hornets and yellow jackets are closely related and are both known for being large and aggressive. They are often confused with one another, too. For example, the bald-faced hornet is actually a yellow jacket, and the European hornet, a true hornet, looks much like a yellow jacket. </p></div>

Q: Is a one-time spray enough?

• <div><p>Whether a one-time spray treatment to control mosquitoes is enough depends on multiple factors. Often, you&rsquo;ll notice a big difference after one application. However, mosquitoes are likely to return if you don't reduce attractive standing water habitats. This usually takes four to eight weeks if it&rsquo;s still prime mosquito season. </p></div>

Q: Do repairs include pest removal?

• <div><p>Many services include pest removal as part of the repair process. Confirm with your provider.</p></div>

Q: What attracts wolf spiders to your house?

• <div><p>The main reason wolf spiders gravitate towards houses is the presence of their prey, including insects like flies and ants. Their attraction is also heightened by the availability of suitable shelter in areas cluttered or undisturbed and in moisture-rich environments like basements. Openings and gaps in the structure provide an easy access point for these spiders. During cold weather, wolf spiders may also seek warmth indoors, making your home an attractive refuge during harsh weather conditions.</p></div>

Q: What scent keeps gophers away?

• <div><p>Like many animals, gophers are bothered by strong scents. Peppermint oil, eucalyptus oil, and coffee grounds can be used as deterrents against these pests. Similarly, you can try planting lavender, rosemary, sage, geraniums, or pine trees, as these plants all have strong smells that can ward away gophers. While it may be less pleasant to work with, coyote urine scares gophers by tricking the pests into thinking your yard is a predator hot spot.</p></div>

My house and rain gutters were really bad, they hadn't been cleaned for years. These two gentlemen did an excellent job . I highly recommend them and I'm sure I'll be using them in the future. I told them I wouldn't let it get so bad next time. Great job and reasonably priced.
