Eliminating Rodents with Thorough Exclusion & Rodent Stations

The term “exclusion” refers to a highly effective system of keeping unwanted pests off your property for the long term. After all, what good does it do if you manage to eliminate every single rat, mouse, or squirrel from your property, only to discover that more have arrived via the back door a few months later? 

Exclusion starts with our knowledgeable team of pest specialists conducting a thorough inspection of your property. This allows us to find all the potential entry points and what type of rodent has infected your home. Sealing off entry points and setting up dedicated forms of monitoring will help ensure that rodents, whether they be common house mice or Norway rats, stay off your property.

If your rodent issue is particularly stubborn, exclusion can be supplemented with rodent stations. A rodent station works by leading rats, mice, and other unsavory creatures to enter a small box where they encounter a highly toxic form of bait. While the bait will eventually kill the rodent, it is usually slow working, allowing the individual rodent to share the bait with others in the colony.

Leave Rodent Control to Professionals

Unlike certain species of pests, such as fire ant or certain spiders, many rodents will not directly attack you, although they have been known to bite when cornered. However, rodents are infamous for the diseases they spread, either by direct contact or transferred by the fleas and ticks hiding in their fur. If you try to capture a mouse or rat on your own, you could easily be exposed to one of these diseases, which have been known to cause long-term side effects or even death. 

Some of the pathogens spread by rodents include:

• Murine typhus
• Rat bite fever
• The plague 
• Leptospirosis
• Salmonellosis
• Capillariasis
• Echinococcosis 
• Toxoplasmosis
• Trichinellosis 
• Hantavirus
• Tularemia 
• Arenavirus
• Weil’s disease
• Rat tapeworm

Never attempt to handle an infestation of these potentially dangerous creatures on your own — promptly call experienced pest control experts to take care of the problem. Our professionals at City Wide Exterminating, Inc. can identify the right way of dealing with rodents to protect the health and wellbeing of your family.
