With all the diseases transmitted by rodents, infestation is no laughing matter. Rodents can also do thousands of dollars in damage to your home, business, or even an automobile.
Rodents reproduce quickly, meaning time is of the essence. As nocturnal creatures, many clients don’t see the rodents and realize they have a problem until they are well-established and expanding into multiple areas.
How To Tell If You Have Rodents
- Poop: Rodent droppings can be less than a quarter of an inch to half an inch or larger. Fresh droppings are shiny and putty-like. Different sizes of poop indicate different generations of rodents.
- Marks: Rodents often leave greasy marks as they travel, hugging your walls or furniture. Sometimes they will also chew through food boxes and even walls. Holes from the size of just a dime are large enough for rodents to access.
- Noises at Night: Rodents rest during the day and are active at night. They may make noise while they move through your walls, causing scratching and chewing noises.
- Your Pet: If their behavior has changed for no apparent reason, you may want to look closer. Pets on high alert can be another sign you have an infestation.
