Rodents may seem harmless at first glance, but ignoring their presence can lead to serious consequences. Rats and mice often enter homes in search of food and shelter, especially during colder months. Once inside, they can quickly create nests, chew through insulation and electrical wiring, and contaminate your food supply.
The dangers go beyond property damage. Rodents carry diseases like salmonella and hantavirus, which can be transmitted through their droppings, urine, or saliva. Their constant gnawing also poses a fire hazard if they reach your electrical system. And even a small infestation can escalate rapidly, as rodents breed quickly and often remain hidden behind walls or in attics.
If you notice droppings, scratching noises, or signs of chewed packaging, it’s important to act immediately. The longer you wait, the harder it becomes to remove them. A professional pest control service can assess the situation, seal off entry points, and implement safe, effective treatment to eliminate the infestation.
