RODENT REMOVAL

Rat and Rodent Removal

Many people assume that rat infestations are a direct result of bad housekeeping or dirty living conditions. But, rodents can infest any house where they find an entrance. 
Mice and rat removal can be a difficult task. They are in search of food and warmth, can multiply very quickly, and are experts at hiding and avoiding people. 
What you can’t see, though, can hurt you. It's especially true if there are young children or elderly people in the home. Professional rodent removal is usually the only way.

Spreadable Diseases and Health-Related Issues

Rat fecal matter can spread serious diseases quickly. 

Hantavirus

Hantavirus is a potentially fatal disease that is directly spread to humans from rodents. When a human is exposed to rodent urine that is infected with the virus they can become seriously ill. 

The symptoms are like cold and flu symptoms which lead many people to be misdiagnosed at first, adding to the danger. Pest removal services can greatly decrease the chance of your family being exposed to this disease.

Rat Bite Fever

Rat Bite Fever is another highly dangerous, potentially deadly disease that is directly contracted from infestations. It can be contracted by food that has been contaminated by rodents. 

Other Health Risks

Not only can direct contact with rodent fecal matter cause health risks but once rodent fecal matter has dried it can also contaminate the air quality of a home posing risk to all living in the home. Contaminated air quality can contribute to many breathing problems such as asthma. Breathing in air that has been contaminated by rodent fecal matter can also be a cause of contracting many diseases that are common to rodents. After rodent removal, it might be wise to hire a cleaning service to remove any remaining rodent debris.

Home Damage Caused by Rodents

As if the health risks were not enough, rats also pose a threat to your home itself. 
They contribute to most non-weather related property damage every year. They can cause damage to installation, floorboards, cabinets and even electrical wiring. When electrical wiring has been compromised your home is put at a whole new level of risk as the danger of electrical fires is increased. Dealing with a rat problem early on is the best way to decrease your chances of property damage or health risk for you and your family.
