Rodents can cause massive problems in our homes and commercial premises, particularly in the winter when they try to get indoors for warmth. Rats and mice will also often invade your indoor areas in order to get food as well as to escape the cold weather during the winter. However, these rodents can cause all sorts of problems when they invade your property, from damage to your home or commercial premises through to hygiene problems and health risks.
Some people decide to try and use traps in order to try and resolve the problem, but apart from perhaps catching one or two of the rodents this is not a hugely effective solution. Others may try poison but this can cause issues if you have children or other pets in the home. Calling on the service of professional pest control experts will enable you to eliminate your rodent problem safely and effectively through the use of humane and proven methods.
Getting rid of rodents safely and humanely
By choosing the right pest control services provider, you can ensure that your rodent problem is tackled quickly, efficiently, safely and humanely. Given the problems that are associated with methods such as setting traps or administering poison, these professionals will utilise more efficient and effective rat control methods in order to eliminate the problem in your property. Some of the steps that an experienced and specialist rodent control company will be able to put into place include:
1. Sanitation: The professionals will look at ways in which to cut the amount of food and shelter that is available to rodents, which in turn can help to reduce rodent activity in your property.
2. Prevention: The professionals will assess your property in order to see whether action needs to be taken in order to stop rodents from gaining access. Experts will also be able to carry out basic alternations in order to reduce the risk of rodents gaining access to your home or commercial premises.
3. Trapping of rodents: Although traps used alone tend to be ineffective, they can be far more effective when used in conjunction with other methods so this is another area that an expert will look into.
4. Chemical control methods: An experienced professional will be able to utilise a range of chemical control methods in order to try and resolve the issue, such as tracking powders, bait and gel.
