Ensure a Healthy Home for Your Family
Rodents seem harmless enough, but mice and rats can carry diseases and parasites including ticks, fleas, Typhus, Salmonella, and even Bubonic Plague! Rodents can also cause significant structural damage and turn your home into an unsafe environment. Their teeth don’t stop growing, so rodents constantly have to chew on whatever they can find to keep them usable. Electrical wires are quite literally everywhere in your home, making it inevitable that a rodent will chew on one eventually. This can have dangerous consequences. Insurance estimates indicate that mice and rats are responsible for as much as a quarter of house fires in America each year.

Recognize the Signs of a Rodent Infestation
Rodents leave behind some of the most easily recognizable signs of any pest that you’re likely to encounter in your home.

Signs of rodent activity include:
- Chew marks on food packaging or home structures like baseboards and walls.
- Rodent footprints, especially around food storage areas.
- Abandoned rodent nests, usually made from shredded paper or cardboard.
- Scratching noises coming from behind walls.
- Unpleasant odors coming from difficult-to-reach areas of your home.
- Power interruptions with no apparent cause.
- Strange or uncharacteristic behavior from pets as they search for rodents in your home.
10 Essential Tips to Prevent Rodents in Your Home
Here are ten easy tips to help prevent mice and rodents from getting inside your home:
- Seal Entry Points: Inspect your home for any gaps, cracks, or holes, and seal them with caulk, steel wool, or other suitable materials. Mice can squeeze through surprisingly small openings.
- Keep Food Sealed: Store food in airtight containers made of glass, metal, or thick plastic. This includes pet food, which can attract rodents if left out in the open.
- Clean Regularly: Regularly clean up crumbs and spills, especially in kitchen areas. Vacuuming and sweeping can help eliminate food sources that attract rodents.
- Proper Waste Management: Dispose of garbage regularly in tightly sealed bins, both indoors and outdoors. Keep compost bins covered securely.
- Trim Vegetation: Keep trees and bushes trimmed away from your home, as rodents can use overhanging branches as bridges to access your roof.
- Store Firewood Properly: Store firewood away from the house and above ground level, as rodents may use it as shelter.
- Close Potential Entryways: Keep doors and windows closed, especially at night. Install screens on windows and doors to prevent rodents from entering.
- Maintain Yard Hygiene: Keep your yard clean and tidy, removing any clutter or debris that rodents could use as hiding spots.
- Set Traps: Place rodent traps in strategic locations, especially in areas where you've seen signs of rodent activity. Check and reset traps regularly.
- Consider Professional Help: If you have a persistent rodent problem, consider hiring a professional pest control service to assess the situation and provide effective solutions.
By following these tips, you can greatly reduce the likelihood of mice and rodents making themselves at home in your living space.
