Are Rats and Mice Dangerous?
If you have mice running around your household, they’re probably common house mice. A house mouse is about 5 ½ to 7 inches long with large ears and dark beady eyes. They are generally brown and gray in color and can fit through many cracks, crevices, gaps, and other Mouse Entry Points. Thousands of buildings are infested with the common house mouse. While they might look harmless and cute, house mouse feces can cause respiratory illness, and the mice themselves can transmit disease. Please take heavy precautions when cleaning all rodent droppings and nests. Drake Pest Management is always happy to help with this process. Rats take mouse problems and kick them up a notch! They will chew through most materials. They leave substantially more droppings and urine behind. And worst off, they are known to commonly carry disease. Even to the point of being major transporters of disease during plague times. If water, food, and safe shelter is accessible to rodents, they’ll inhabit any space immediately and indefinitely. Entry points near garage doors, foundation cracks, and utility spaces can act as easy points of entry. They can be particularly troublesome during cold seasons. Once the rodents find their way into a warm environment, they will multiply. Before you know it, you’ll have a full-blown infestation on your hands.
Can I Treat Rodents Myself?
Snap or live traps are a great place to start. However, some products have little to no effect. Sonic devices and store-bought rodenticides may annoy rodents, but they have little to no lasting effects. Drake Pest Management is licensed to apply deadly doses of rodenticide to mice and rats that kill in one swift feeding. Drake Pest Management specializes in rodent exclusion as well. This is achieved through rodent-proofing all structures rodents may enter. Filling cracks/crevices, replacing door weather stripping, caulking soffit, and installing vent covers are some of the ways Drake Pest Management can rodent-proof your home or business.
