Pests

Squirrel hibernation varies in length depending on climate and species.

The reproductive cycle of a house fly depends on environmental conditions such as temperature – the warmer the temperature, the shorter the cycle.

The life span of a bedbug most commonly ranges from four to six months. Some bedbugs may live for years and can go months without feeding.

Due to literary comparisons between bats and vampires, some people expect a bat bite to resemble fang marks. In truth, bat teeth are so sharp and so tiny, they might not leave any mark at all.

While homeowners are often alerted to a skunk’s presence by the smell, these pests do make noticeable sounds.

Most people are familiar with ants through coloration, with black and red at the forefront of many homeowners’ minds.

While they prefer to use the abandoned holes of other burrowing pests, skunks may also opt to make their dens under decks, porches, and sheds.

Just like the adults, baby cockroaches can carry bacteria on their bodies. They transfer these pathogens through contact with food and utensils.

These tough pests are able to breed quickly, hide well, and survive all but the most extreme conditions.

From an average gestation period of between 39 to 44 days. To their maturity of roughly nine months, the average squirrel life is an interesting one.
