Rodent Proofing

Rodent Proofing

Do you have a pest problem? Have you been hearing skittering noises in your attic or smelling foul odors coming from your air ducts? Are your allergies worse than normal?

If so, you might have a rodent infestation and it may be time for a thorough inspection.

Everyone has a preferred pest control method, and you may have tried a rodent exterminator or wildlife removal service in the past. However, neither of those will get to the root of the issue…animals and pests gaining access to your home! We provide rodent proofing services to get rid of pests once and for all!

A rat or mouse infestation can cause major problems for the rest of your home. It’s easier than you think for wildlife to get inside your home. They could damage your heating and electrical systems and potentially jeopardize your health (from rodent feces). So, even if you only suspect you might, it’s better to enlist the help of experts early on.

How Do You Know if You Need Attic Rodent Proofing and Cleaning?

No place in the home is more inviting to critters than the attic. It’s dark, isolated, and full of warm insulation—all of which make the perfect conditions for a rat’s den or mouse’s nest, moreover they potentially have access to food in your home like pet food or trash. Some common rodents species found in houses can are:

  • Norway Rat

  • Roof Rat

  • House Mouse

But what are the signs you need to be looking for?

Common indicators that you have a rodent clean up include:

  • Droppings

    Rat and mouse feces are not only gross, but pose a potential health hazard, especially if allowed to linger. A mouse or rat infestation can grow exponentially fast if not taken care of correctly. If you see rodent droppings, it’s time to call the pros.

  • Urine

    Especially with larger infestations, rodent urine can quickly make a horrid smell that gets into your air ducts and spreads throughout the house.

  • Nests

    The easiest sign to identify, rodents love to burrow into your attic’s insulation and use it as a nest.

  • Animal Behavior

    If you have cats or dogs, they’ll likely be the first to notice and point out the problem, whether that’s barking or pawing at areas where they might be hiding, or even catching rodents.

  • Noise

    The scurrying, scattering, and scratching of mice and rats are often a telltale sign that you need help.

If you’ve seen some or all of these signs, just give us a call. We’ll quickly perform an inspection and cleanup. Once that’s done, we’ll rodent proof your house to keep them from returning to their old haunts.

Orange County Rodent Proofing

Even if you wanted to, properly rat proofing attics is a difficult task.

While you could use poison or rat traps, neither of those options are a permanent treatment or solution, nor are they particularly safe when it comes to rodent removal. And finding pest entry points takes a trained eye.

Put simply, you need to rely on the experts to address the problem at its source. Doing so will ensure that the rodents don’t simply return in full force a few weeks later.

But what happens if you don’t fix the issue immediately? Aside from the obvious damages to your home’s electrical wiring, and HVAC, there are serious potential health issues of allowing a rodent infestation to go unchecked.

Common disease and health problems related to rodents include:

Leptospirosis

Lymphocytic Chorio-Meningitis (LCM)

Salmonella

Hanta Virus

Omsk Hemorrhagic Fever

Parasites

Rat Bite Fever

Eosinophilic Meningitis

Murine Typhus

Tularemia

Don’t let this problem get out of hand. Doing so will only cost you more money while risking your health. Instead, let the experts at Attic Construction make sure that the issue is dealt with once and for all.

Difference between Rodent Control and Rodent Proofing

A common question we get is, “should I get a rodent control service or a rodent proofing service?”. There is a main distinction between the two is a pest control service (mouse or rat control) generally refers to an exterminator & rodent trapping services while rodent proofing focuses on a long term solution to keeping rodents out of your house via sealing rodent entry points. This is very effective for various rodent types (mouse, rat, roof rat, raccoon, etc.) and is a safer solution than the poison and trap methods used by the standard pest control company. We do not directly perform rodent removal service (extermination); however we provide all other services related to cleaning, decontamination, and proofing.

I had a very positive experience with everyone I worked with at this company. The original estimator was very helpful and detail-oriented. The office staff was also polite & professional. Team Frederick came to my house to do the work. They were all very polite. They took extra time to be sure that everything that I was promised was delivered. The house was left very clean! Very happy with the entire experience.
