Rodent Control

Rodents are a problem in many commercial and residential properties. They spread disease, contaminate food, and even cause structural damage in houses they’ve claimed as their own. Seal out rodents and keep them completely out of your home with the proper rat and mice control strategies!

Inspect & Identification

1. Droppings are a sure way of knowing if you have rodents in your house, and you can tell a lot about what kind of rodent you have by the kind of dropping. Rat droppings are half an inch or longer, while mouse droppings are only less than a quarter inch. Norway Rat droppings are bunt at both ends, while mouse droppings are pointed.
2. Gnawed holes are a good sign you have rodents traveling all over your house. They can be as little as the size of a dime to as big as a quarter or more.
3. Rodent urine has a strong, pungent smell, easily more detectable in larger infestations.
