Q: Can scorpions climb walls?

• <div><p>Scorpions can climb walls with rough surfaces (like stucco siding). They need something to grip onto, which is why they can easily climb on clothes, comforters on beds, and other items in your home.</p><p>However, it&rsquo;s worth noting that scorpions cannot climb clean glass. So if you have a hole or damaged area where scorpions are coming in, a temporary fix may be to secure a piece of glass over the area.</p></div>

Q: What should I do if I’m attacked by a swarm of wasps?

• <div><p>Stay calm and avoid acting like a threat. Avoid swatting at the wasps or yelling, which will agitate wasps and make them more likely to attack. Instead, move away at a slow, steady pace in one direction, getting as much distance between you and the wasps as possible. </p><p>Wasps swarm to protect their nest, so moving far away indicates you are not a threat and they should subside. Do not try to handle a wasp nest filled with agitated wasps. Wait until they call down before you take action, or trust in a professional.</p></div>

Q: How can I distinguish between bees and wasps?

• <div><p>Bees usually have thicker, fuzzy bodies, while wasps have slender, smooth bodies. Behavior and nesting also differ.</p></div>

Q: Do imitation nests work to prevent yellow jackets?

• <div><p>Probably not. Many imitation nests are meant to be hung from trees or other tall places, but not all yellow jackets nest up high&mdash;most species, such as the common yellow jacket and the southern yellow jacket, build nests in the ground. </p></div>

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>
