Pest control Service for Rodents Rats Mice

There are ways to get rid of the mice and rats yourself, but there are also likely to be times that you prefer to call on a professional rodent control service. When this is the case, there are a number of things you will need to do to prepare for service, to ensure the treatment is as effective and long-lasting as possible.

Pest control for mice tips

Make sure that all food that is not in a can or jar is stored in the refrigerator or heavy plastic container for at least two weeks following service. This includes chips, candies, nuts, cereals, breads, any grain-based food, pet foods, etc., that are normally stored in upper or lower cabinets, on counter tops, or on top of the refrigerator. Although usually bagged, rodents can chew right through plastic bags to get to foods.

Remove all items from the top of the refrigerator and from directly underneath the kitchen sink to allow access to these areas.

 making note of areas where mice or signs of mice have been seen.

Traps  should not be touched or disturbed during or after the service.

Take out trash on a regular basis, keep lids on trash cans, and keep area as clean as possible.

Eliminate any unnecessary storage including boxes, paper, and clothing as rodents will take shelter here, gnaw the items to make their nests, and even breed in such undisturbed areas.

Rat are destructive, to wiring insulation causing a fire hazard. They can breed up to 6 times in a year, producing 5-10 babies each time. Once they take up residence in your home, they can quickly multiply, increasing the damage and danger to you and your property. Our mice control and mice removal experts are professionally trained in rat control.
Rat Control and extermination of rats involves a series of steps in many situations. The first step is rat removal, is closing all the holes they are using to get in then trapping all of the rats living in the structure. Rodenticides or poisons are usually not the best way for rat removal of the infestation initially because they often cause you to have dead and decomposing animals in the structure of your home, which can lead to further contamination, terrible odors, and insect problems. A thorough inspection to identify entry points on your home will often reveal a need for exclusion to prevent reentry once the initial rat removal is completed. Because rats can squeeze through very small openings, it is often impossible to fully ‘rat proof’ a structure. In many cases, we can implement a rat control program to prevent a re-infestation which will include rat control re-treatment if needed.
