Understanding Rodent Infestations

hank's-handyman-service

Mice and rats are notorious for invading homes in search of food, water, and shelter, often sneaking in through small cracks, gaps, and openings. Once inside, they multiply rapidly, making early rodent control essential to preventing a full-blown infestation.

Signs of a Rodent Infestation

Knowing the signs of a rodent infestation can help you act quickly before the problem escalates. Common indicators include:

  • Droppings
  • Gnaw Marks
  • Scratching Noises
  • Nesting Materials
  • Unusual Pet Behavior

The Dangers of Rodent Infestations

Ignoring a rodent problem can lead to costly damage and health risks. Mice and rats:

  • Spread Diseases: Rodents carry harmful bacteria and viruses, including Hantavirus and Salmonella, which can contaminate surfaces and food.
  • Damage Property: Their constant gnawing can ruin furniture, chew through electrical wiring (a fire hazard), and destroy insulation.
  • Attract Other Pests: Rodents bring fleas, ticks, and mites into your home, creating additional pest problems.

 

The longer a rodent infestation goes untreated, the harder it becomes to eliminate. That’s why professional rodent control services are the best way to effectively remove and prevent rodents from returning. At Hank’s, we provide expert rodent extermination using targeted, long-term solutions to keep your home rodent-free.

Rodent Prevention Tips for Homeowners

Keeping rodents out of your home requires proactive measures. Mice and rats are persistent, but with the right rodent prevention strategies, you can minimize the risk of an infestation. Follow these expert-recommended tips to keep your home rodent-free year-round.

Seal Entry Points

  • Inspect your home’s exterior for gaps, cracks, and holes—especially around doors, windows, and utility lines.
  • Seal openings with caulk, steel wool, or weather stripping to block rodent access.
  • Ensure garage doors and basement windows close tightly to prevent entry.

Eliminate Food & Water Sources

  • Store dry foods, pet food, and birdseed in airtight, rodent-proof containers.
  • Clean up spills and crumbs immediately, and avoid leaving dirty dishes in the sink overnight.
  • Repair leaky faucets and pipes—rodents need water to survive and often seek out moisture-rich areas.

Declutter & Maintain Your Home

  • Remove clutter, especially in attics, basements, and garages, where rodents love to nest.
  • Keep landscaping trimmed, ensuring shrubs, tree branches, and firewood piles are at least three feet away from your home’s foundation.
  • Regularly dispose of trash in tightly sealed bins and avoid leaving garbage bags exposed.

Schedule Routine Rodent Inspections

Even with the best rodent prevention methods, mice and rats can still find ways inside. Regular home inspections can help catch early signs of an infestation before it worsens. Hank’s rodent control experts can identify vulnerabilities, reinforce entry points, and provide ongoing monitoring to keep your home protected.
