Why Won’t Ants Cross a Chalk Line?

You can detour ants with chalk lines, but the ants will find a different path to get into your home. It’s impossible to put chalk lines all over your home and outside to keep them at bay, and it would be very messy. 

Wasp control and all about wasps.

The wasp is in the same family as bees, sawflies and ants. There are numerous species of them, including hornets and yellow jackets. One thing that many of them have in common is solitude. Females tend to live and breed on their own. However, the social species build nests and have bee-like colonies.

Spider elimination and all about spiders.

The destruction these vermin do inside your home is costly, especially since they can gnaw and chew through drywall, concrete, and even aluminum. It’s hard to deny a rat infestation as they leave behind feces and a trail of chewed papers and other household goods.

How To Keep Rats And Mice Out Of Your Pharmaceutical Facility
