Rodents: Dangers, Signs of Infestation, and More
Rats and mice can go beyond being just a nuisance, posing real threats to your family and home, making professional rat removal in Stuart a must-do.
WHAT TO KNOW ABOUT RODENTS
Some household pests are just annoying, but rodents pose a number of threats that make professional extermination a must.
DANGERS
Rodents can carry diseases that can be contracted by having contact with their feces, saliva, urine, or bodies, or by being bitten. They also indirectly spread disease through insects that have fed on them.
DIET
Mice and rats will eat any type of food they find. While they don’t consume wiring or wood, they chew them to sharpen their teeth or create nests. Chewed wiring in your home or vehicle can lead to a fire.
INFESTATION SIGNS
Even if you don’t see a rodent, you may see their signs: droppings along baseboards, in boxes, or where food is stored or prepared. You may see damage they’ve done to food packaging or hear them moving around.
PREVENTION
Keep rodents away by taking away their access to your food—store food in sealed containers that rodents can’t chew through. You should also find and eliminate their entry points, even those as small as a quarter of an inch.

RODENT PREVENTION TIPS
To keep rats and mice out of your home, here are strategies.
Seal up entry points by repairing or replacing window and door screens, and using weatherstripping to keep rodents out. Locate where pipes and cables come into the house as well as other potential entry points; fill in gaps and patch holes. Repair plumbing leaks.
In the kitchen and other eating places, keep floors and counters free from food by wiping up spills and sweeping up crumbs. Store food in airtight containers. Also consider your pets’ food and water bowls, putting them away (inside and outside) at night.
Keep gutters on your home clean and in good repair, able to effectively funnel water away from your foundation. (If you don’t have gutters, consider installing them.)
If you use mulch, keep it several inches away from your home because rodents are attracted to this as nesting material. Outdoors, keep garbage cans tightly sealed. Inside, make it challenging for them to get inside your waste cans.
By following these strategies and being proactive, you’ll hopefully keep rodents out of your home. Nothing is foolproof, of course, so you may still notice infestation signs. If so, contact us for rat control in Stuart as soon as possible. Rodents multiply quickly, so you’ll want us to interrupt the population growth, ASAP.
