How to Control a Rodent Infestation
Since rats and mice are attracted to our homes because they can offer food, water, and shelter, the most effective rodent control is denying them access to these! Here are some steps you can take to control a rodent infestation:
- Deny them food by cleaning up any spilled food and water, as well as storing food in air-tight containers.
- Keep kitchen garbage in containers with tight-fitting lids.
- Pick up pet food dishes and water when not actively in use.
- Patch and repair any holes.
- Be sure the vent covers fit properly and are in good repair.
- Don’t feed wild birds as spilled seed attracts and feeds rats and mice.
- When composting, ensure to cover scraps fully.
- Prune any branches that overhang your roof, or that grow close to the roof.
- Pick up fallen fruit or vegetables in the garden.
- Keep the grass mowed short, trim shrubs, and remove leaf litter.
- Hire a professional rodent pest control company, like Mosquito Joe!
