Rodent Control

Expedient rodent control is vital since rats and mice can cause significant damage inside your home, not only from structural damage, but they will the eat and spoil your food, and spread diseases like hantavirus and salmonella. These diseases can be transferred through their feces and urine, which they leave throughout your home. They can also gnaw tunnels and holes throughout your home. They also pose a threat to electrical wires, which can become a serious fire hazard. Because they reproduce so rapidly, one or two can quickly turn into a full-blown infestation.

Rats, mice and squirrels can find a multitude of ways to enter your home. They may come in through cracks in your foundation or by walking along electrical wires to reach your roof. There are steps that you can to prevent them from coming in, such as pest exclusion barriers which will block their entry.
