How to find a dead rodent in the house?

Monday, October 5th, 2009
prkswllflwr asked:


A few weeks ago, we heard something scuttling in our apartment. Now, whatever it was is definitely DEAD and it absolutely stinks. But we can’t find it..it must be a rat or a mouse. How can we go about finding it so we can get rid of it?
If we must call a pest control company to find it, how much money does that usually run?

Thanks for your help.
We have a puppy, but she doesn’t even seem to notice the smell.

how do you get rid of carpenter ants in the house?

Nicole D asked:


We have carpenter ants and pest control is not working. they put down ant bait over a week ago and the ants are still coming in as they were before the ant bait. we have a very clean home and food is stored properly. We wipe our counters down with clorox clean-up and they just show up somewhere else in the house like a clothes sloset or the laundry room. someone said that we should try equal sugar substitute and the aspartame kills them. does this work? and are there any other suggestions? The ants are relentless and i’m getting very frustrated

How long can roaches last without an air supply?

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009
Vincent C asked:


My apartment has roaches everywhere and pest control hasn’t got the problem in this building under control, so I’m moving. My new place is roach free and I’m wanting to try and move no roaches with me. My idea is to get a bunch of vacuum seal bags, put stuff inside, then vacuum out the air and let it sit till they die, then unload. Does anyone know how long roaches can last without air?

Thanks!

Alvin
