How to identify a rodent infestation?
Because rodents are nocturnal, seeing them is quite difficult. This means that you will have to rely on other signs to identify a rodent infestation. Some of the signs you should look for include tracks and grease marks along walls, damaged property, holes on walls, as well as noises coming from your attic, walls and beneath the floor.

Prevention
Rodents come into your home for two reasons; food and shelter. Maintaining a clean house and keeping your food in secure containers – preferably ones made from metal or glass – will ensure that rats have no reason to stick around. Also, inspect your house and seal all holes that rodents can use to enter. Remember, rodents can squeeze through the tiniest of spaces.

Control
For a natural homemade rodent control
solution, put a few drops of peppermint oil on cotton balls and place them
where the pests have constructed their nest. Rodents find this smell very
unpleasant.
Prevention and
control
Rats are attracted
to your house by two things; food and shelter. Deny them access to these and
you’ll successfully avoid an infestation. This can be done by:
–
Keeping your house clean and tidy. Vacuum regularly, do the dishes, clean
food related messes and avoid clutter.
– Keeping your food in secure containers preferably those
made from glass or metal.
– Checking and sealing all holes in your house’s walls.
– Covering bins used for food waste.
Although these
precautions will help keep rats away, their effectiveness is not guaranteed.
They’ll also not work for already existing infestations. For the best results,
you’ll have to use professional rat control products. Our range of pest control
