Rodent Control

Signs You Have a Rodent Problem
Rodents are sneaky creatures and can be hard to spot, but the longer an infestation goes unaddressed, the worse it will get. Fortunately, their habits give away their presence if you know what to look for. There are some common signs of a rodent problem that you should be aware of so that you can take action before things get out of hand.
Watch out for the following signs of rodent presence:
- Droppings: Rodents leave small dark droppings in areas they frequent, such as behind kitchen appliances or inside drawers. These droppings can contain harmful bacteria, so it’s important to avoid contact with them and clean up any mess immediately.
- Gnaw marks: Rodents are always gnawing on things to keep their teeth sharp and will leave telltale signs of their presence with tooth marks on furniture, walls, wires, etc.
- Unusual noises: Rodents are active at night. You might hear scratching or scurrying noises coming from walls or ceilings, which could indicate a nest.
- Unexplained odors: As rodents urinate and defecate in your home, you might notice a musty smell that could indicate an infestation.
- Sightings: If you actually see a rodent in your home, chances are you have an infestation. Rodents are active at night and try to remain out of sight, but you may catch them scurrying around as they scavenge for food.
