If you’re dealing with a mouse or rat infestation in your home, you’re probably looking for effective ways to control the population of these rodents. At OBEX Pest, we specialize in home rodent control and have the knowledge, experience, and tools to help you get rid of mice and rats and help prevent future infestations.
Here are five steps we can take to help with your home rodent control:
-
- Identify the source of the infestation. The first step in controlling the rodent population in your home is to identify the source of the infestation. Our trained professionals will conduct a thorough inspection of your home to determine where the mice or rats are coming from and how they are gaining access to your home.
- Eliminate sources of food and shelter. Mice and rats are attracted to homes in search of food and shelter, so eliminating these sources can make your home less appealing to them. Storing all food in airtight containers and regularly clean up any crumbs or spills can be one of the biggest quick-help techniques. We can also help you seal any cracks or holes in your walls, windows, and doors, and guide you when it may be time to fix any damaged screens or weather stripping.
- Use traps and bait stations. Traps and bait stations, when used properly, are safe and effective ways to eliminate mice and rats, and they can be placed in areas where these rodents are known to frequent. Our trained professionals will help choose the right placement of these extremely-productive units for your situation to help reduce rodent populations.
- Implement ongoing prevention measures. Once the mice or rats are reduced or eliminated, it’s important to implement ongoing prevention measures to keep them from coming back. This may include regular inspections, continued use of traps or bait stations, and maintaining a clean and well-sealed home. Our professionals can help you develop a customized prevention plan to keep your home rodent-free.
- Monitor and maintain. After we have implemented our home rodent control plan, we will continue to monitor the situation and make any necessary adjustments to ensure the rodents stay gone. We will also provide ongoing maintenance and support to help you keep your home rodent-free.
