Q: How do I keep pests away from my garden?

• <div><p>There are a few ways to keep pesky bugs away from your garden. One option you have is to plant flowers so beneficial insects like ladybugs can control pests for you. A similar method is companion planting, which means you&rsquo;ll grow vegetables that&rsquo;ll discourage pests, like garlic, onions, and basil. The best pest prevention method will depend on the bugs you have issues with and the plants in your garden. </p></div>

Q: Can pantry bugs get into sealed packages?

• <div><p>Pantry bugs are rarely able to get into sealed packages, but they may try. If you find pests on or around a sealed food item, check inside to make sure the food is still clean. Not sure whether a package is contaminated? Spread the contents onto a cookie sheet and use a flashlight to look for pests.</p></div>

Q: How can I tell what kind of animal is in my attic?

• <div><p>It can be difficult to know what type of animal is in your attic until you see it. But several clues can help you narrow down the suspects:</p><ul><li><p><b>Sounds</b>: Smaller animals like rats and mice make scurrying and tapping/gnawing sounds. Larger animals like raccoons and opossums make louder clambering noises. Also, note when animals are noisy: Squirrels are active during the day, while rats are busiest at night.</p></li><li><p><b>Droppings</b>: Rats and mice leave small, rice-shaped droppings (the rat&rsquo;s version is significantly larger). Bigger droppings belong to larger critters like raccoons. As long as you&rsquo;re not squeamish, an image search can help you identify what you&rsquo;re seeing in your attic.</p></li></ul><p>When in doubt, take photos of damage or other evidence and show them to an experienced pest control pro.</p></div>

Q: What to spray to keep spiders away?

• <div><p>Experts have mixed opinions about spraying spiders. <a href="https://entomologytoday.org/2018/01/22/do-chestnut-lemon-or-peppermint-scents-repel-spiders/#:~:text=Results%20were%20mixed,the%20three%20species.">A recent study</a> found that chestnut and peppermint oil have a repelling effect on some spider species, but were ineffective at repelling others. You should consult with an expert exterminator to find out what works best to repel the spiders living in and around your home.</p></div>

Q: What is the best homemade fruit fly trap?

• <div><p>The most widely touted method for removing fruit flies is the combination of apple cider vinegar and dish soap. Since the soap causes the flies to sink, you can leave this trap open for maximum potency and easy fly access.</p></div>
