Rodent Control

Each year in the winter, rodents invade an estimated 21 million homes in the U.S. And 35% of people living in western states mentioned having problems with rodents such as rats and mice in the past year.

Wild and domestic rodents have been reported to harbor and spread as many as 200 human pathogens.

A mouse produces between 40 to 100 droppings per day, while a rat produces between 20 to 50 droppings a day.

Pest Triva:

• Did you know mice can jump a foot high?
• Rats can squeeze through a space as small as a half dollar.

If you're concerned that you have rodents in your home or place of business, give Dave a call at 1-800-400-6009.

Pest Health Threats - Part 7

Rodents can enter a building through almost any opening or crack. It is important to inspect for rodent droppings, especially in undisturbed areas such as pantries, under baseboards and along walls.

Rodent droppings most often cause allergic reactions in human beings but can also cause disease, including the potentially deadly Hantavirus. More frequently, though, rodents serve as vectors, carrying bacteria, such as salmonella, on their bodies and contaminating food sources, kitchen surfaces and equipment.

Dave's Pest Control can offer the expertise and knowledge of rodent biology to best protect your health and rid your home or business of a rodent infestation.
