Q: Do squash bugs come back every year?

• <div><p>Squash bugs only see one generation per year, but that doesn&rsquo;t mean they won&rsquo;t return. These persistent pests overwinter in garden debris, under leaves, and in nearby structures, emerging in the spring ready to start the cycle again. Without proper cleanup and preventative measures, you can expect squash bugs to come back each growing season, especially if you&rsquo;ve had issues with them in the past.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell how many mice you have?

• <div><p>There is no exact science here, due to the nature of nests and how mice raise their young, but a good place to start is to inspect the droppings. A single mouse poops a lot, leaving around 50 droppings in a single day, likely near a primary food source. If you find only sporadic droppings, you likely have a small infestation. If you spot large mounds of droppings, you are dealing with a big problem.</p></div>

Q: How do I keep animals away from my plants?

• <div><p>You can take multiple approaches to keep animals out of your edible landscape. You can use natural repellents such as mint and cayenne pepper to deter them from your garden. You can also build a fence (or opt for a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/privet-hedge.htm">privet hedge</a>) or keep the most enticing plants in a sectioned-off area. The most efficient method of keeping your four-legged guests at bay is to determine what animal it is and create a customized plan for them. </p></div>

Q: What can I do to help prevent ticks?

• <div><p>Ticks love to hide in long grass, mulch beds, leaf piles, and wooded areas, so minimizing these things in your yard can help stop them from making a home there. If you live in an area with lots of wildlife, it's also helpful to put up a fence so that deer and other animals don't bring ticks into your yard.</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>
