Q: How often do moles breed?

• <div><p>Moles breed once a year, marking March on their calendars as peak season. However, their breeding season can start as early as February and wrap up in May. Their gestation period is 4 weeks, with litters ranging from 2 to 6 little ones. They are considered all grown up by the three-month mark, making them ready for parenthood.</p></div>

Q: Is a one-time spray enough?

• <div><p>Whether a one-time spray treatment to control mosquitoes is enough depends on multiple factors. Often, you&rsquo;ll notice a big difference after one application. However, mosquitoes are likely to return if you don't reduce attractive standing water habitats. This usually takes four to eight weeks if it&rsquo;s still prime mosquito season. </p></div>

Q: Does pest control require contracts?

• <div><p>Not usually. Most pest control will offer one-off services without the need to sign a contract. However, for especially large projects, or treatments that will involve additional trips for months into the future, pest control companies may require you to sign a contract. </p></div>

Q: How long can fleas live without a host?

• <div><p>Adult fleas can live from a few days to about two weeks without a host. If pets are not available, fleas may feed on rodents or people. While adult fleas need a blood source to survive, flea pupae can lie dormant for up to a year in optimal conditions. Therefore, cleaning and treating the infested area is essential to prevent pupae from surviving and hatching later.</p></div>

Q: Will a mother bird return to a disturbed nest?

• <div><p>In most cases, a mother bird will return to a disturbed nest after the disturbance has passed. However, it can be hard for a mother bird to find a relocated nest. So, while it&rsquo;s false that a mother bird will abandon her nest if it&rsquo;s been disturbed, it&rsquo;s not a good idea to relocate a nest with live babies or eggs in it.</p></div>
