What Can I Do About the Rodent Nest in My Home?

Posted by Mosquito Squad

October 16, 2024

Your home’s integrity is a vital component of a healthy lifestyle, so what happens when pests compromise your home’s security? While we are all accustomed to insects making their way inside at various times of day, what can be done when you discover large animals have made their way inside? Unfortunately, now that summer is in the rearview mirror, pests such as mice and rats are currently searching for places where they can make their nests and overwinter the cold outdoor conditions. While there are abundant areas outside where rodents can attempt to make such shelters, none can compare to the security found in our homes, particularly in our walls and under our floorboards. These mammals gravitate to insulated areas of our home where they can shelter, and they can cause serious damage to your home in the process. Such issues are why rodent control is a vital asset to rely on.

Why You Should Consider Rodent Control in Hampton Roads, VA

Mice, and even rats, are considered cute by some, but that’s where their pleasant traits end. Especially when they are in your home. Wild animals don’t adhere to the standards set by well-behaved dogs and cats in our care. Rodents, in particular, pose serious issues when inside your house as they cause wanton destruction in very little time, much of which remains invisible until you get an inspection. Urine, excrement, and other kinds of waste will rapidly build up in the confines of your walls and floorboards where these pests lurk, and this behavior can compromise the structural integrity of your home and your health. Indeed, rodents will even gnaw on electrical cords, causing issues that can reach the scale of a serious fire risk.

 

Additionally, rodents can carry fleas and other parasites that can spread diseases to humans. Rather than endure a rodent infestation, rely on professionals for help!
