Yes, rodents can cause significant damage to your home. Rats and mice chew on electrical wires, insulation, and structural materials, which can lead to fires and costly repairs. They also contaminate food sources and surfaces with their droppings and urine, posing health risks. Rodents can gnaw through various materials, including plastic and wood, potentially causing leaks and structural weaknesses. Professional rodent control services are essential to prevent and mitigate these damages effectively.

Signs of a rodent infestation include hearing scratching or gnawing sounds, finding droppings or urine stains, and noticing gnawed materials or food packaging. You might also spot nests made of shredded paper or fabric and see rodents themselves, particularly at night. Additionally, you may detect an unusual musky odor. If you notice any of these signs, it’s crucial to contact The Pest Man for a thorough inspection and prompt treatment.

Preventing a rodent infestation involves eliminating food, water, and shelter sources. Keep food in sealed containers, clean up spills immediately, and dispose of garbage regularly. Seal any cracks or gaps around your home’s foundation, doors, and windows to block entry points. Maintain a clean and clutter-free environment, especially in storage areas. Regular inspections and proactive treatments by The Pest Man can also help ensure your home remains rodent-free.
