Recognizing The Signs of a Rodent Problem

Knowing when you have a rodent problem is the first step to solving it. Here are some common signs that indicate a rodent infestation:

Rodent Droppings

Finding small, dark droppings in areas where food is stored or prepared is a clear sign of rodent activity. It's crucial to address this immediately to prevent contamination and the spread of diseases. Our rodent control service ensures that you can rest easy.

Gnaw Marks

Rodents constantly gnaw to keep their teeth from growing too long. Look for gnaw marks on furniture, wiring, and food packaging. Ignoring gnaw marks can lead to structural damage and electrical hazards. Having us come and fix it can help keep things at bay.

Nesting Materials

Rodents build nests out of shredded paper, fabric, and other soft materials. Discovering nests in hidden areas, such as attics or behind appliances, indicates a significant infestation. We will go through the process of cleaning this and removing existing pests.

Unusual Pet Behavior

Pets may become agitated or overly interested in specific areas if they sense the presence of rodents. Paying attention to your pet's behavior can provide early warnings. If they keep scratching walls, odds are strong that they're scratching due to the existance of a pet.

Strange Noises

Hearing scratching, scurrying, or squeaking sounds, especially at night, often means rodents are active within your walls or ceilings. These noises can disrupt sleep and cause considerable stress. It is best to handle this right away to prevent further issues.

Odor

A musty or stale odor can indicate the presence of rodents, especially in enclosed spaces. This smell can persist even after the rodents are gone if the area isn't properly cleaned and sanitized. It's not always apparent, but it's something you'll want to keep in mind.

Grease Marks

Rodents often leave grease marks along walls and baseboards as they repeatedly travel the same routes. These marks can be difficult to remove and are a telltale sign of an established infestation. Be sure that you have someone who's aware of this type of thing.

Damaged Food Packaging

If you find food packaging that has been chewed or torn open, it's likely that rodents are accessing your food supply. This can contaminate your food and spread diseases. Sometimes folks end up getting sick, usually from the rodent, so you'll want to be careful and address this right away.

Dead Rodents

Coming across dead rodents on your property, either indoors or outdoors, signifies an ongoing problem that needs immediate attention. It's one of the most blatant signs that you're running into infestation problems. Leaving them there has its own host of issues, and you want to handle it the right way.

Presence of Rodent Runways

Look for paths or runways that rodents consistently use along walls, fences, or through landscaping. These paths are often marked by flattened vegetation and droppings. Take a closer look and see if they exist, usually they are readily apparant once some one points it out.

Holes in Walls or Floors

Rodents can create holes in walls or floors to gain access to nesting areas or food sources. These holes should be sealed immediately to prevent further entry. If it's not sealed immediately, the issue can grow, compounding the problem.

Outdoor Nests or Burrows

Check your yard for nests or burrows near shrubs, trees, or foundations. These are signs that rodents are living and breeding on your property. You want to find a way to address the problem immediately.

Increased Allergies or Asthma Symptoms

Rodent droppings and dander can trigger allergies and asthma symptoms in sensitive individuals. If you notice a sudden increase in respiratory issues, rodents could be the cause. It's best to get it handled and taken care of

Water Damage

Mice and rats often create their homes close to water sources. This can result in leaks or bursts that may require repairs and can trigger more problems to arise during these periods of time.

Rodent Damage Types

Here are some of the most common damages caused by rodents and require professional expert attention. These include:

Chewed Wires and Cables

Rodents have a habit of gnawing on cables and cords that can cause electrical damages. This may also lead to blackouts and equipment malfunctioning as well. It's common in older homes, you will want to be extra attentive and careful.

Structural Damage

Rodents, particularly rats, are known for burrowing deep into the walls of buildings and can cause great erosion to the woodworks and foundation of homes and structures which endanger the structural foundation of buildings. They may also impact furniture and appliances. If you have structural issues, you'll want to get to the bottom of the problem.

Contamination

Rodents are notorious carriers of diseases which causes havoc in homes when the rodents defecate around places like pantries and kitchens which makes food and water unsafe for humans to consume. You won't ever want to consume water or food that is contaminated.

Damage to Insulation

Rodents tend to build their nests with soft materials like insulation, which damages insulators, and this can incur huge electric expenditures when regulators start working poorly as a result of damage. In order to get it covered, you'll want to get a professional to come and take a look.

Destroyed Gardens

Rodents are noted pests of agricultural value for eating up garden vegetation, damaging stems and causing damage to garden plants and roots which leads to garden yields and production suffering gravely. Garden gnomes never enjoy them and it's one of the first places folks realize something is wrong.

Health Risks of Rodents

There are plenty of health and safety risks associated with rodents. Take a look at the most common concerns to be aware of.

Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS)

HPS is a severe respiratory disease transmitted through the inhalation of aerosolized urine, droppings, or saliva from infected rodents. Symptoms can include fatigue, fever, muscle aches, and respiratory distress. Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial.

Leptospirosis

Leptospirosis is a bacterial infection that can be contracted through contact with contaminated water or soil. Rodents, particularly rats, are common carriers of this bacterium. Symptoms may range from mild flu-like symptoms to severe liver and kidney damage.

Salmonellosis

Rodents can contaminate food and surfaces with Salmonella bacteria, leading to food poisoning. Symptoms include diarrhea, fever, and abdominal cramps. Proper food handling and storage are essential to prevent salmonellosis.

Rat-Bite Fever

Rat-bite fever is a bacterial infection that can occur after being bitten or scratched by an infected rat. Symptoms include fever, rash, and joint pain. Prompt medical attention is necessary to avoid serious complications.

Plague

Although rare, plague is a serious bacterial infection that can be transmitted to humans through flea bites or direct contact with infected rodents. Symptoms include fever, swollen lymph nodes, and pneumonia. Antibiotic treatment is essential.

Allergies and Asthma

Rodent allergens, such as urine, droppings, and dander, can trigger allergic reactions and asthma symptoms in sensitive individuals. Regular cleaning and professional pest control can help reduce allergen levels.

Tapeworms and Roundworms

Rodents can carry parasites, such as tapeworms and roundworms, which can be transmitted to humans and pets through contact with contaminated feces. Proper hygiene practices and pet care are important to prevent parasitic infections.

Lyme Disease

Ticks that feed on rodents can transmit Lyme disease to humans. Rodent control can help reduce tick populations and the risk of Lyme disease transmission. It's important to stay on top of this.

Murine Typhus

Murine typhus is a bacterial infection transmitted through flea bites. Rodents serve as reservoirs for the bacteria, and fleas can transmit it to humans. Symptoms include fever, headache, and rash. Antibiotic treatment is effective.

Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis (LCMV)

LCMV is a viral infection primarily transmitted through contact with urine, droppings, or saliva from infected rodents. Most infections are mild, but LCMV can cause serious complications in pregnant women and individuals with weakened immune systems.
