Rodents

​

Rodents like rats and mice can pose serious health and safety risks when they invade homes:

1. 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).

2. Property Damage – Rodents chew through wood, insulation, and even electrical wiring, increasing the risk of house fires.

3. Food Contamination – Mice and rats can quickly infest pantries, contaminating food with their droppings and urine.

4. Rapid Reproduction – A single pair of mice can produce dozens of offspring in just a few months, leading to a full-blown infestation.

5. Allergies & Asthma – Rodent droppings, fur, and urine can trigger allergic reactions and worsen asthma symptoms.

 

Why an Experienced Exterminator is Needed

• Thorough Inspection – Identifies entry points, nesting areas, and the severity of the infestation.

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

• Safe Rodent Removal – Experts remove rodents without causing harm to pets or children.

• Sealing Entry Points – Prevents future infestations by blocking holes and cracks where rodents enter.

• Sanitation & Prevention Tips – Helps ensure rodents don’t return by advising on proper food storage and home maintenance.

Since rodents multiply quickly and pose significant health risks, calling a pest control professional is the best way to eliminate them permanently.
