Stop Unwanted Rodents — Permanently
Protect your food, health, and peace of mind with step-by-step guides.
Understanding Rodents
What attracts rodents to your home? Easy access to food, shelter, and warmth are the main reasons why rats and mice invade. Gaps in walls, open food storage, and cluttered spaces make your space appealing to them.
- Key signs of infestation: Droppings, gnaw marks, scuttling sounds, and visible damage in food areas.
- Threats: Rodents damage property, spread disease, and can put your family’s health at risk.
Step-by-Step Rodent Control
- Prevention: Seal cracks and holes, fit door sweeps, and reduce food and water sources.
- Safe Elimination: Use enclosed traps and baits in high-activity areas, and check traps regularly.
- Aftercare: Deep clean infested areas and monitor regularly to prevent new problems.
Combining these approaches can help you achieve a rodent-free home without unnecessary toxins or stress.
