Customer Mistake #1

Not fixing the problem thinking rats and mice will just leave someday

Mouse ( mice) and Rat Control is always a big problem because what starts out as a small problem quickly grows into something bigger. Just like rabbits, (another rodent) rats and mice quickly populate in what seems like just a blink of an eye .

Most homeowners already have a bigger mouse and rat problem then they believe anyway because commensal rodents really try to not be noticed and can sit for hours still and not make a noise sitting under your couch or other places. Even the appearance of a few rat or mouse turds (feces, poop, caca) can first cause doubt or even ignorance of an obvious rat or mouse (mice) problem.


Customer Mistake #2

Using Poisons And Not Traps

One big mistake homeowners first make is to not trap mice, rats in the first place. A squeamish homeowner who does not want a dead rat or mouse on a trap often finds out how bad rat, mouse, mice, rodent poison can become Homeowners learn the hard way and stop believing the myth that rats, mice (mouse) will go out side for water (and that never happens). What really happens we have learned in laboratories that when a rat or mouse eats poison they get sick and rest and try to sleep it off and just die where ever they took their last nap. Dead rats, mice and rodents stink and cost lots of money in digging out walls to find the culprit and end up having to repair a wall just because they did not want to set rat or mouse traps.

Home owners who chose not to trap vs using chemicals quickly learn the smell of dead rodents, rats, mice (mouse) and well if it was a squirrel and not even a rat a dead squirrel dead in your attic and in the walls of your home.

 


Customer Mistake #3

The biggest mistake homeowners often make is not stopping the rodent, rat, mouse (mice) or even a squirrel problem. Few owners give little thought to how rats, mice and squirrels enter homes and how to stop the rats, mice (mouse) and squirrels from getting in the home in the first place . We always recommend having a complete rodent inspection done on your home and fully analyze the best approach to rodent proofing your home. We know that simply sealing off all access points to your home is the only way to stop rodent problems permanently. Interested ? Call and ask for a Rodent Inspection, Rodent Exclusion or Rodent proofing. Some of our customers call it mouse proofing, rat proofing and squirrel proofing but the bottom line we are sealing up your home from these rodents.

Since just one female mouse can produce over 40 young mice each year. Mouse (mice) populations in your home can recover quickly, and mouse proofing makes a lot of sense since it is designed to not even allow most mice to ever enter your home again.
