Don't let mice and rats damage your property.

Aside from making you uncomfortable in your own home, mice and rats can actually endanger the health and well-being of your family by transmitting bacteria, contaminating food sources, biting, and scratching. What's more, they may cause property damage and could even spark electrical fires with their chewing.

There are many indicators that can help you recognize a rodent infestation including, but not limited to:

• Rodent droppings or urine, especially around food packages, in drawers or cupboards, and under the sink
• Indication of chewing and gnawing on food packaging
• Holes chewed through walls or along floorboards
• Musky odor coming from hidden areas or inside walls
• Materials that can be used for nesting, such as shredded paper, fabric, cardboard, etc.
• Chew marks on wood, cardboard, and other materials
• Allergic reactions, as rat fur and droppings are common allergens
• Seeing actual mice or rats in your home, often scurrying along the perimeter of rooms
