Protect Your Home
from Mice and Rats
Mice, rats and the parasites that come with them can carry a number of diseases, such as Hantavirus, Listeria, Rat Bite Fever, and Salmonellosis. Some of these diseases can be potentially deadly to humans. Additionally, droppings, urine trails, dander, and hair from rodents can contribute to unhealthy and dangerous allergies. Even rat saliva can make people sick.
On top of the serious health concerns, rodents can also cause a lot of damage to your home or place of business. Rats will gnaw, chew, and burrow through wood, sheet rock, vapor barriers, insulation, and many other components of a structure.
They can gnaw entry holes anywhere from ground level to your roof to gain access to crawlspaces, basements, and attics. Once they gain access to the structure, they can breed rapidly and quickly multiply the problems they cause for you and your family.
Rodent exclusion requires sealing off every entry point around a home or business. A mouse can squeeze through an opening as small as 1/4″ wide. Rats and mice have teeth that have evolved specifically for continuous gnawing.
They can gnaw through plastic, insulation, and soft wood. That’s why it is crucial that you get a thorough rodent exclusion inspection by a rodent exclusion specialist.
