Detailed Service Section
Comprehensive Rodent Inspection
Our rodent control service starts with a detailed inspection of your property. This allows us to identify the type of rodent infesting your property (mice, rats, etc.), locate their nests and entry points, and assess the extent of the infestation. This thorough evaluation is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan.
Identifying Rodent Species
Different rodents require different control methods. Our technicians are trained to identify common rodent species, including house mice, roof rats, and Norway rats. Understanding the specific rodent species is essential for choosing the right bait, traps, and exclusion techniques.
Locating Nests and Entry Points
Rodents often nest in hidden areas, such as attics, crawl spaces, and inside walls. Finding these nests is important for eliminating the source of the infestation. We also identify entry points, such as cracks in the foundation, gaps around pipes, and openings in the roof, to prevent future rodent infestations.
Customized Treatment Plans
Based on our inspection findings, we develop a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific situation. Our treatment plans may include a combination of baiting, trapping, and exclusion techniques. We prioritize using safe and effective methods that minimize risk to your family, pets, and the environment. When needed we will be sure to come and check the traps, to make sure the issue at hand is resolved. Our clients have loved this service, as they don't have to touch or get near the rodents themselves.
Baiting
Baiting involves placing rodenticides in strategic locations to attract and eliminate rodents. We use tamper-resistant bait stations to prevent access by non-target animals, such as pets and wildlife. It's important to use baits that are effective against the specific rodent species infesting your property.
Trapping
Trapping is another effective method for controlling rodent populations. We use a variety of traps, including snap traps, glue traps, and live traps. Trapping can be particularly useful in situations where baiting is not appropriate, such as in homes with young children or pets. However, we do not recommend using this strategy if you're not comfortable with handling dead rodents.
Exclusion Techniques
Exclusion involves sealing entry points to prevent rodents from entering your property. This can include caulking cracks, installing screens over vents, and repairing damaged siding or roofing. Exclusion is a crucial step in preventing future rodent infestations.
Safe and Humane Removal
We prioritize safe and humane rodent removal methods, minimizing any unnecessary suffering to the animals. Our technicians are trained to handle rodents responsibly and in accordance with local regulations. The rodent in the home can be very stressful, as such, we handle this specific part of our job with care and caution to ensure peace of mind.
Sanitation and Prevention
Rodents are attracted to food and water sources. Proper sanitation practices can help prevent rodent infestations. We provide expert advice on how to keep your property clean and free of attractants. This includes storing food in airtight containers, cleaning up spills promptly, and eliminating standing water.
Follow-Up Services
We offer follow-up services to ensure that the rodent infestation is completely eliminated and to prevent future problems. This may include additional baiting or trapping, as well as ongoing monitoring of your property. Our approach allows the problem to be solved as quickly as possible, and not lingering around for a very long time. We believe in taking care of the problem quickly, so you can get back to living comfortably, without pests in your home.
Why Rodent Control is Essential
Rodent infestations can pose significant health risks to humans. Rodents can transmit diseases through their urine, feces, and saliva. They can also contaminate food and water sources, leading to food poisoning and other illnesses. Additionally, rodents can damage property by gnawing on wires, insulation, and other materials.
Common Rodent Problems
Food Contamination
Rodents contaminate food sources with their urine, droppings, and fur, which can spread diseases like salmonellosis and hantavirus. They also damage packaging, leading to food waste and financial losses. This is particularly serious in commercial settings like restaurants and grocery stores, where hygiene is paramount. Effective rodent control is vital to protect public health and maintain food safety standards. Our professionals are trained to assess food prep areas, and ensure that steps are being taken to avoid future contamination.
Property Damage
Rodents constantly gnaw on materials to keep their teeth from growing too long. This can lead to significant property damage, including chewed wires, damaged insulation, and structural weakening of buildings. Rodent chewing on electrical wires can create fire hazards, posing a serious threat to homes and businesses as well. We know what to look for and can help provide insight on what to clean up based on the damage rodents may have left behind.
Disease Transmission
Rodents are carriers of numerous diseases that can be transmitted to humans through bites, scratches, or contact with their excrement. Some common diseases include leptospirosis, rat-bite fever, and plague. Additionally, rodents can carry parasites like fleas and ticks, which can transmit diseases like Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Controlling rodent populations is crucial to minimize the risk of disease transmission and protect public health.
Allergies and Asthma
Rodent allergens, found in their urine, droppings, and saliva, can trigger allergic reactions and asthma attacks in sensitive individuals. Exposure to rodent allergens can lead to symptoms such as sneezing, wheezing, and skin rashes. In homes with children or individuals with respiratory conditions, rodent infestations can exacerbate these conditions and negatively impact their quality of life. Rodent removal and thorough cleaning are essential to reduce allergen levels and improve indoor air quality.
Psychological Distress
Living with a rodent infestation can cause significant psychological distress, including anxiety, fear, and sleeplessness. The constant presence of rodents can create a sense of unease and invasion, affecting mental well-being. Furthermore, the stigma associated with pest infestations can lead to feelings of shame and embarrassment. Prompt and effective rodent control is necessary to alleviate psychological distress and restore a sense of security and comfort.
Foul Odors
Rodent infestations often result in unpleasant odors from their urine and droppings, which can permeate throughout a building. These odors can be particularly noticeable in enclosed spaces like attics, crawl spaces, and basements. The foul smell can be offensive and create an unsanitary environment, affecting the comfort and air quality of the premises. Our team will let you know what may be causing the odors and the best ways to help reduce the foul smells. We use the proper equipment to help reduce the odors.
Signs You Need Rodent Control Services
Droppings
Finding small, dark droppings in areas such as kitchens, pantries, and storage rooms is a clear sign of a rodent infestation. The size and shape of the droppings can help identify the type of rodent present. Regular cleaning of these areas can help monitor for new droppings and assess the severity of the problem. Depending on how many droppings you're seeing, you will want to call immediately.
Gnaw Marks
Rodents constantly gnaw on materials to keep their teeth from overgrowing. Finding gnaw marks on food packaging, furniture, and structural components indicates rodent activity. Pay close attention to areas where rodents might attempt to enter, such as around windows, pipes, and electrical wiring. The gnawing has been done for many reasons and it's best to consult a profession to let you know how to avoid future problems
Nesting Materials
Rodents build nests using materials like shredded paper, fabric, and insulation. Discovering these nests in hidden areas, such as attics, walls, and behind appliances, confirms a rodent presence. Disturbing a nest can cause rodents to scatter, making the infestation more apparent. We help to find where the nests are being built and strategize on how to avoid the rodents to build nests again.
Scratching Noises
Hearing scratching or scurrying noises in walls, ceilings, or floors, especially at night, is a common sign of rodent activity. These noises indicate that rodents are moving around within the structure. The consistent presence of these sounds warrants a prompt investigation and rodent control measures. Our goal is to find out where the scratching noises are coming from and prevent future issues from occurring.
Unusual Pet Behavior
Pets often detect rodent activity before humans do. If your pets are unusually interested in certain areas, such as walls or floors, or are exhibiting signs of agitation, it could be due to the presence of rodents. Pay attention to these behavioral changes and investigate further. Sometimes you may think it's something more serious, but in reality, it could be a rodents in your walls, so it's best to do a checkup.
Grease Marks
Rodents often leave grease marks along walls and baseboards as they travel, due to the oils in their fur. These dark, smear-like marks can be found near common rodent pathways and entry points. Identifying grease marks can help pinpoint areas of high rodent traffic and where to focus control efforts. It can be hard to realize where these grease marks and from unless you're actively looking for them. Our professional team has been trained to immediately recognize these grease mark.
Burrows
Outdoor rodents often dig burrows near foundations, decks, and gardens. These burrows can be identified by small holes in the ground surrounded by loose soil. The presence of burrows indicates an active rodent population that may be accessing your property. It's important to seal these holes, so there is no future issues present.
