Q: Will rodents leave on their own?

• <div><p>Like a rent-controlled apartment in New York City, rodents know a good thing when they see it. If they've found a cozy nest inside your home, they will set up camp and stay there, leaving only to forage for food and water. As long as they have a warm place to sleep, raise their young, and continue access to water and food, they're going to stick around.</p></div>

Q: How do you deter bugs in your home?

• <div><p>One way to keep pests away is with good housekeeping. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-pest-control-ants.htm">Keep ants away</a> with a clean kitchen. They&rsquo;re less likely to wander in looking to score some free food if there isn&rsquo;t a mess to find. Wipe down counters, don&rsquo;t leave dirty dishes around, and keep food in air-tight containers. </p><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-you-need-know-about-your-pest-problem.htm">Home and yard maintenance can also keep pests away.</a> Seal windows, patch any holes or cracks, and put screens on the vents to prevent bugs, rodents, and other uninvited guests from coming in. </p></div>

Q: Is it possible to have bed bugs and not find them?

• <div><p>Yes, it&rsquo;s possible to have bed bugs and not find them because they hide in small spaces outside of mattresses, including baseboards, headboards, electrical outlets, clothing, and in crevices of walls. They can squeeze into spaces as small as the width of a credit card. Bed bugs can also live up to 400 days without feeding, making them resilient and hard to eradicate.</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>
