Vaishnavi Pest Control Few people really like rats or mice, and no one wants them in their house. Rodents live everywhere outside and could enter at any time, but fortunately, this does not occur often.
Usually, most home invasions occur in the autumn months, because the seeds and plants on which rodents feed are gone. Rats and mice must then seek new food sources in the homes.
Rats are excellent climbers and capable of gaining entry through holes around vents and around cables entering the building, through holes in gable vent screens, and through turbine and box vent on roofs. Many garage doors in homes allow enough space for rats to fit underneath, as well.
TIPS FOR CONTROL
Step 1 :
The best way to avoid invasions of rats is to provide as little harborage/storage as possible that might attract rodents
Step 2 :
Seal as many holes and cracks in the outside of the home as possible through which rats might enter.
The following recommendations should be followed to help prevent rats from seeking the food and shelter provided by your home :
If possible, remove any piles of debris, stones, bricks, etc. near the foundation of the home they serve as harborages to attract rodent.Seal any hole or crack larger than 1/4 of an inch . Large holes or cracks should be stuffed with steel wool or wire mesh before sealing with caulk or foam, otherwise rodents could chew though to enter.
