Do bats come back to the same place every night?

• <div><p>This depends on if their needs are being met. They'll likely return night after night if they have access to food, water, and adequate shelter. If this changes, they’ll look for another roosting spot. This is why bright lights and other dissuading factors often work when removing bats from a property.</p></div>

Q: What are the first signs of bed bugs?

• <div><p>The first signs of bed bites are itchy bites, rust-colored spots on bedding, and tiny dark fecal droppings. You might also find bed bug eggs, casings from nymphs shedding, or bed bugs themselves. Some infestations can also cause a musty odor near the bedding. Calling in a professional exterminator as soon as you notice these signs gives you the best chance of total eradication.</p></div>

Q: Can you really get rid of bed bugs without an exterminator?

• <div><p>Yes, getting rid of bed bugs without an exterminator is possible. However, it will take significantly longer and more effort than professional extermination. Using a HEPA vacuum, steaming, sealing, and other DIY removal methods work with consistent effort. Plus, it won&rsquo;t guarantee to clear the entire infestation, so you may need to apply several follow-up treatments. </p></div>

Q: Do rabbits eat mint and other herbs?

• <div><p>Rabbits have a penchant for plants, relishing herbs, veggies, fruits, and grasses. Common herbs like mint, basil, and cilantro are fair game for rabbits. In fact, leafy greens such as mint and thyme are rabbit favorites. Not only do bunnies find it yummy, but it packs health benefits when consumed in small amounts.</p></div>

Q: Do stink bugs play dead?

• <div><p>Yes, stink bugs can play dead. Stink bugs don&rsquo;t just release bad odors, they have a defense mechanism to pretend to be dead, even when flicked over and swept into a trash bin. That&rsquo;s how stink bugs may keep coming back even if you thought you got rid of them. </p></div>
