Q: Does pest control require contracts?

Q: How do I kill fruit flies outdoors?

Fill a garden sprayer with your chosen solution and apply it on your plants and around the base of your home's exterior.

Q: Will fleas die off in the winter if I don’t want to pay for an exterminator?

• <div><p>Cold winter months won&rsquo;t always kill off fleas completely. Your home is typically warm enough for fleas to survive or, at least, for the eggs to lay dormant, ready to hatch when warmer weather arrives. Plus, waiting for the winter isn&rsquo;t a good idea. The infestation will continue to grow, and fleas carry pathogens that can harm humans and pets. </p></div>
