Mice and Rats: Silent Invaders and Serious Threats

The Hidden Dangers of a Rodent Infestation

Mice and rats are more than just a nuisance—they pose serious health and safety risks. Mice have an incredibly rapid reproductive cycle, and if left unchecked, just two mice can multiply into 200 mice within six months, quickly overrunning your home or office. They contaminate surfaces, spread diseases, and can cause significant damage by chewing through electrical wires. Rats, known carriers of the bubonic plague, also present a danger. Their teeth never stop growing, requiring them to constantly gnaw to prevent their teeth from growing into their brains. While their natural habitat is outdoors, where they nest in the ground, both mice and rats often seek shelter indoors, bringing with them a host of problems.

Why Mice and Rats Invade Homes and Businesses

Mice typically enter homes and businesses during the fall and early winter, seeking harborage and a steady food source. However, warmer winters have allowed both mice and rats to thrive year-round. As a result, infestations are no longer limited to colder months—we now receive just as many calls for rodent problems in the spring and summer as we do during the fall and winter. This constant activity makes it essential to stay vigilant and take preventive measures throughout the year.
