Why do I suddenly have voles in my yard?

• <div><p>Voles are attracted to areas with lots of vegetation that they can hide in. Since they eat mostly grasses, tubers, and bulbs, a robust garden can attract voles that wouldn’t have looked twice at a barren rock garden. Voles also like to hide out in dense ground cover, so that can attract them as well.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to leave a doggy door open?

• <div><p>No, it&rsquo;s not safe to leave a doggy door open. It might be more convenient, especially at night when you just want to lay in bed. However, when you leave it open, it increases the chance of other critters getting in without your knowledge. Also, it leaves your pup unsupervised for hours at a time. </p></div>

Q: Are possums aggressive to people and pets?

• <div><p>Possums are not aggressive toward people or pets. They are shy critters that prefer to avoid confrontations. When threatened, they may hiss, growl, or display their teeth but are more likely to play dead as a defense mechanism. Possums rarely attack unless cornered or provoked. They are not a significant threat to pets, though a curious dog or cat might provoke a defensive reaction.</p><p> </p></div>

Q: Can I handle pest control myself?

• <div><p>DIY treatments may help minor issues, but professionals provide long-term solutions and prevent recurrence.</p></div>

Q: Where are fleas most likely to hide?

• <div><p>Fleas <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/where-do-fleas-hide.htm">are master hiders</a>, so they&rsquo;re always looking for safe spots. In addition to living directly on your pets, they&rsquo;re likely to hide in bedding materials, not unlike the infamous bed bugs. They also like carpet and thick grass, for similar reasons. They&rsquo;re more likely to hang around dirt and debris in general, which is why it&rsquo;s important to keep the home clean. </p></div>

Someone else came and took the wood. I was told if I had any problems with this process, to call them and they would come back and clean up. May need this, also may have them cut more off the tree stump.
