What Does Rodent Control Service at Mosquito Joe Involve?

Not only are they pesky, but rats and mice can cause structural damage to your property in Northern Prince William County. They can also carry fleas, ticks, allergens, and disease pathogens.

As if that wasn’t enough, rodents continue to cause problems even after they die. As a rat dies and decays, the fleas, pathogens — and smells — live on. Additionally, the dead body attracts other insects, further compounding your issues.

Steps to Stopping a Rodent Infestation in Northern Prince William County

Most often, rats and other rodents make their way onto your property in the hopes of finding food and shelter from environmental factors. These factors can include heavy rainfall, severe drought, winter chill, or intense summer heat. As you know, Northern Virginia can experience all of these.

The key to effective rodent control is to block access to the necessities they seek. Obviously, the goal is to try to stop rodents from entering your property in the first place.

Remember, rodents are plentiful, smart, and driven to survive. You’ll need to be vigilant to help keep your spaces in Northern Prince William County secure from rats and mice.

Rodents will look in places like barns, sheds, roofs, garages, attics, and basements. We’ve got some steps that you can take to make your property less appealing and harder to access for rodents. Start at the heart of your property, and work outwards:

    • Always clean up spilled food and water in the kitchen. Store all 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, however small, in walls between rooms, between the garage and the attic, or leading outdoors. Pay particularly close attention to the back of cupboards and closets, vents, and around window casings.

    • Inspect all vents, especially along the roof, to be sure the vent covers fit properly and are in good condition.

    • Stop feeding wild birds. Spilled seed attracts and feeds rats and mice.

    • When adding food scraps to the compost, always turn the compost to cover any food 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 and clutter that can provide shelter.

    • Hire a professional pest control company, like Mosquito Joe of Northern Prince William County, to examine your property and curtail the rodent population.
