Gnaw marks on food packaging or wooden structures
Scampering noises in walls, ceilings, or under floors

Health Risks Associated with Rodent Infestations

Spread bacteria through droppings and urine
Carry parasites like fleas and ticks
Potential vectors for serious illnesses

Common Questions About Rodent Control

How do I know if I have mice or rats?

Rats are larger (15-20 cm body length) with thicker tails, while mice are smaller (7-10 cm) with thin tails. Rat droppings are also larger (2 cm) compared to mouse droppings (0.5 cm).

How long does it take to eliminate a rodent problem?

Most infestations can be brought under control within 1-2 weeks, though severe cases may take longer. The free follow-up visit after two weeks helps address any persistent issues.

Are rodent control products safe for children and pets?

Yes, when properly used by professionals. Our technicians place baits in tamper-resistant stations that are inaccessible to children and pets. Traditional traps can be placed in areas where pets and children cannot reach them.

Will rodents die inside my walls?

It’s possible for rodents to die in inaccessible areas after consuming bait. If you notice an odor, contact us for assistance in locating and removing the source.

How do rodents get into my home?

Rodents can squeeze through very small openings—mice need only a gap the size of a pencil (6mm), while rats can enter through holes as small as a quarter (12mm).

Will one treatment be enough?

A single treatment can address the current population, but the free follow-up visit helps ensure complete control. Long-term prevention measures are also important to avoid reinfestation.
