Rodent Control

Rodents like mice, rats, and moles can infiltrate your house and pose health and property hazards, as we at Sacramento Pest Control Associates are aware. Our expert rodent control services offer prompt, efficient, and compassionate ways to get rid of infestations and stop them from happening again. We are dedicated to making sure these trespassers don’t get into your house.

Are Rodents Invading Your Kitchen and Living Spaces?

Rodents are known for their ability to hide and reproduce quickly, making it hard to detect their presence early. Common signs of rodent infestation include droppings, scurrying noises, gnaw marks, or signs of nesting. If you notice any of these, it’s important to act fast before they cause significant damage or spread disease. Rodents are also known to chew on electrical wires, insulation, and furniture, which can lead to costly repairs.

Our comprehensive rodent control service targets a wide variety of rodents that commonly invade homes in Sacramento, including:

• Deer Mouse: Small rodents that can carry diseases like hantavirus.
• House Mouse: Common household pests that nest in walls, attics, and basements.
• Mole: Burrow into your yard and damage gardens, lawns, and foundations.
• Norway Rat: Larger rats that cause significant property damage, including chewing on wires and pipes.
• Roof Rat: Skilled climbers that invade attics and can cause extensive damage.

How We Tackle Rodent Infestations Efficiently?

Effective rodent control involves several steps to eliminate the infestation and prevent future issues. At Sacramento Pest Control Associates, we follow a proven process:

• Inspection: We begin with a thorough inspection of your home to identify the source of the infestation and any possible entry points.

Rodent Control Techniques We Use for Complete Extermination

At Sacramento Pest Control Associates, we use a combination of methods to provide a comprehensive solution to rodent problems:

Why You Should Take Rodent Infestations Seriously in Your Home?

Rodents are not just a nuisance; they can pose significant risks to your property and health:

• Health Hazards: Rodents can carry diseases like hantavirus, leptospirosis, and salmonella, which they transmit through urine, feces, and saliva.
• Property Damage: Rodents chew through insulation, electrical wires, and wooden structures, often causing expensive damage and fire hazards.
• Contamination: Rodent droppings and urine can contaminate food, surfaces, and kitchenware, leading to unsanitary conditions.

Where Do Rodents Live? Why Are They a Cause for Concern?

Rodents are highly adaptable and can make their nests in various areas of your home. Common places where rodents live include:

• Attics and Ceilings: Roof rats and house mice often seek shelter in dark, warm areas.
• Basements and Crawl Spaces: These spaces provide shelter and easy access to food sources.
• Walls and Insulation: Rodents can burrow into the walls of your home, causing damage and creating breeding grounds.
• Yards and Gardens: Moles, voles, and gophers can damage landscaping by tunneling through lawns and gardens.

Rodents are a cause for concern because they multiply quickly, can live in hidden areas, and often cause significant damage. Their presence can also lead to various health and safety issues.
