Q: When is prime mosquito season?

• <div><p>Prime mosquito season varies depending on your location. It&rsquo;s longer in the sweltering southern states and shorter in the cooler, drier northern regions. In places like Florida, it can run from February to November, but in the Pacific Northwest, mosquitoes appear in April and can hang around until the end of October. While the hottest summer months are when they are at peak population, mosquito seasons are extending in many regions because of the increase in annual temperatures. </p></div>

Q: Why do I see mouse droppings but no mice?

• <div><p>Mice are nocturnal creatures who are highly skilled at hiding from humans. So, if you see mouse droppings but never any mice, it&rsquo;s quite likely that you&rsquo;re dealing with an infestation. The presence of mouse droppings indicate the areas where mice are most active in your home. Additionally, the number of droppings and freshness can help you determine the severity of the infestation.</p></div>

Q: Can water bugs get into your plumbing?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s unlikely true water bugs will get into your home plumbing system. You may find them in gutters, rain barrels, or open irrigation on your property. If there are bugs near your indoor pipes, leaky sinks, or other moist places, they are probably Oriental cockroaches. Consult a pest control professional to determine the pest hiding out in your plumbing system.</p></div>

Q: What food is irresistible to mice?

• <div><p>As you know, mice adore peanut butter, but who doesn&rsquo;t? Beyond that sandwich staple, rodents are drawn to berries, grains, seeds, meat, and, yes, even cheese. They also eat pet food in a pinch and feast on plant materials, leftovers, and anything in the trash. In other words, mice aren&rsquo;t picky.</p></div>

Q: Will gnats eventually go away?

• <div><p>Gnats may eventually go away on their own, but it depends on the source of their attraction. If the environment that&rsquo;s attracting them&mdash;such as overwatered plants, moist areas, or food debris&mdash;isn't addressed, they can persist or even increase in numbers. Reducing moisture, improving drainage, and cleaning up organic matter can help eliminate them. Without these changes, gnats are likely to stick around and continue breeding, making it important to remove their breeding grounds to get rid of them for good.</p></div>
