Rodents
​
Rodents like rats and mice can pose serious health and safety risks when they invade homes:
-
Spread of Diseases – Rodents carry harmful diseases such as:
-
Hantavirus (from deer mice, can be deadly).
-
Salmonella (spread through contaminated food).
-
Leptospirosis (spread through urine and water contamination).
-
-
Property Damage – Rodents chew through wood, insulation, and even electrical wiring, increasing the risk of house fires.
-
Food Contamination – Mice and rats can quickly infest pantries, contaminating food with their droppings and urine.
-
Rapid Reproduction – A single pair of mice can produce dozens of offspring in just a few months, leading to a full-blown infestation.
-
Allergies & Asthma – Rodent droppings, fur, and urine can trigger allergic reactions and worsen asthma symptoms.

Effective Traps & Baits – Professionals use advanced baiting and trapping methods that are more efficient than DIY solutions.
