Be Aware! Dengue Fever is on the rise in South FL - protect your home against Mosquitos by Scheduling your next spray
If left unchecked, rodents can cause much more damage to your homes than termites. That’s why it’s extremely important to call for rodent control West Palm Beach services as soon as you notice any signs of these critters or their droppings inside your house. Check out the most common rodents found inside homes:
The house mouse is the most common rodent pest in every continent except Antarctica. They have short hair, large ears, and a pointed nose. Their tail looks very scaly and their feet are hairless and broad. You can be identified by the high-pitched squeaking sound they make. Since they’re nearsighted, they stick close to the walls. They also like to hide in dark and secluded places, and they build their nests behind stoves and refrigerators using paper, insulation, and other soft things that are lying around your house. Their dark-colored droppings are shaped like rods with pointed ends that measure between 3-6mm.
These are big rats that are either brown or gray, with tiny ears, small eyes, and very large teeth that grow all the time. They keep their chompers at bay by chewing on hard things such as thin metal, soft concrete, and stone. Furthermore, they dig burrows to look for places to live, nest and store food in. They eat anything – garbage, cereal, dog food, insects, and more! Since they can chew right through anything, it’s useless to store your food away if you have a Norway rat infestation. Although they have a short lifespan (5-45 months), a female gives birth to 20 offspring.
If you suspect a rodent infestation, call for rodent control West Palm Beach services immediately before you have an infestation on your hands. Contact O’Hara Pest Control to schedule an inspection today.
