Rodent
Rodents
Mice and rats are prolific breeders that seek warmth, food, and shelter inside homes — especially as temperatures drop. They gnaw constantly, damaging wiring and structures, and carry serious diseases.
How to Identify
- Mice are small (2–4 in.) with large ears; rats are larger
- Droppings are dark, rod-shaped, and concentrated near food
- Gnaw marks on packaging, wood, and wiring
- Greasy rub marks along frequently traveled walls
Habits & Dangers
- Chew electrical wiring, creating fire hazards
- Contaminate food and surfaces with droppings and urine
- Spread diseases like hantavirus and salmonellosis
- A single pair can produce dozens of offspring a year
Prevention Tips
- Seal gaps larger than a dime around the exterior
- Store food and pet food in airtight containers
- Keep garages and attics clutter-free
- Trim branches away from the roofline
