• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re apprehensive about <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/are-pest-control-services-safe.htm">whether pest control services are safe</a> for dealing with a termite infestation, rest assured that they are, as long as you hire a licensed company following strict safety protocols. Before the process begins, you'll need to remove food, plants, and pets from the home to prevent chemical exposure. You&rsquo;ll also need to vacate your home for a couple of days while the treatment takes place and the chemicals dissipate.

Q: What can I put in my attic to keep animals out?

• <div><p>To keep animals out, you must prevent them from entering. As long as they can get in, the problem will persist. That said, consider making your attic less inviting using deterrents like motion-activated lights or ultrasonic devices. Additionally, keeping a well-maintained, clean, and uncluttered attic that you regularly inspect for activity may make the space less attractive to critters.</p></div>
