The Effect of Rats and Mice

Rats and mice are more than just unappealing, they can also cause harm to your property and health. They can cause structural damage by making holes in your walls, destroying your insulation, and more. Rodents can also carry other pests, such as fleas and ticks, which can create health concerns for your family and pets. This is why it’s important to get ahead of a rodent issue by taking preventative measures to keep them out.
