Curious masked bandits in your backyard? Raccoons, while cute, can stir chaos. But before grabbing the traps, understand their vital role (pest control!), their nocturnal ways, and why they're drawn to your scraps.
Scorpions. They are nasty, predatory pests that can be found on every continent in the world, except for Antarctica. They've been roaming the planet for over 300 million years and can live up to 25 years old. Getting stung by one of these creatures can hurt, but it won't kill you in most cases. Nevertheless, you don't want them hanging around on your property. But is pest control for scorpions the same as it is for other types of pests?
