    • @thepestinformer
      @thepestinformer Місяць тому

      If you aren’t getting any traction with the traps, move them to different holes. Voles often abandon holes, so your traps might be placed on inactive holes. Once you have a hit there are probably multiple voles in that same hole so replace the trap in the same spot. Hope this helps!

    Don't kill carpenter bees they're good for the garden, they're pollinators. You can drill holes in the 3x4 and put those up around and near the garden out away from the house. By providing them housing and place to lay their eggs, away from your house helps them stay away from your house. Carpenter bees use small holes to lay their eggs. To keep them from your house, keep the wood around your well protected painted, sealed etc.

    Types of diseases from cockroaches Cockroaches can spread a range of diseases. However, unlike mosquitoes, they are not direct vectors of diseases. Transmission occurs indirectly, from consumption or contact with items that have been contaminated by cockroaches, rather than through bites. According to the World Health Organization (WHO) “Cockroaches are not usually the most important cause of a disease, but like houseflies, they play a supplementary role in the spread of some diseases.” Cockroaches are suspected carriers of the organisms that cause the following diseases and infections: Campylobacteriosis Cholera Dysentery Gastroenteritis Giardia Leprosy Listeriosis Salmonellosis Typhoid Fever Cockroaches can also trigger asthma and other allergies as well as spread E. coli, staphylococcus aureus and streptococcus.

    You apply the earth dust with a rose duster or something like it. I have a yellow pint squeezable container with an 8 inch tube attached, it really “dusts “ a large area.
