Q: What is bug bomber made of?

• <div><p>Most DIY roach fogger products are made of pyrethroid pesticides that come with their own unique <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/bed-bug-infestation-risks-pesticides-and-insecticides.htm">risks and benefits</a>. They also contain aerosol propellants that disperse the pesticides by creating a fog that fills the entire room.

Q: Are squirrels aggressive?

• <div><p>Generally, squirrels are not considered aggressive toward humans. They are more likely to flee than confront people. However, like many animals, they may exhibit aggressive behavior if they feel threatened or cornered. If you approach a squirrel too closely or try to handle it, especially if it's a mother protecting her young, it may resort to defensive tactics such as biting or scratching.</p></div>

Q: What do fleas hate the most?

• <div><p>In addition to a clean home, fleas dislike oils made from plants that are naturally bug-resistant or poisonous to bugs. That includes myrtle, mint, eucalyptus, and especially cedar oil. Common household remedies like baking soda, garlic and apple vinegar don&rsquo;t have any effect on fleas. Don&rsquo;t spray essential oils directly on your own skin or your pets (and their bedding, because it can be a skin irritant. Stay away from tea tree oil. In pure form <a href="https://www.theveterinarynurse.com/content/clinical/tea-tree-oil-exposure-in-cats-and-dogs/">it can be very toxic to pets</a>. Always ask your vet if you have any questions.</p></div>

Q: Can a flea infestation resolve on its own?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s highly unlikely that fleas will pack up and leave your home on their own. Fleas reproduce frequently and by the dozens, so an infestation can grow and spread rapidly, increasing the need for professional extermination. That&rsquo;s why it&rsquo;s important to address a flea issue in your home as soon as you identify it. Hire a professional flea exterminator to clear your home of these tiny pests.</p></div>

Q: Do hobo spiders bite?

• <div><p>For years, it was believed that hobo spider bites were incredibly dangerous, causing flesh-eating wounds. But the rumors of their bites were greatly exaggerated, and there's been no real evidence showing a connection between a hobo spider bite and necrotizing wounds. </p><p>That said, the spiders can and do bite, usually as a defense response. They won't attack you unprovoked, but if you take them by surprise and get close enough, they may bite you. Their bites may cause some minor irritation or itchiness. </p></div>
