Rodent infestations pose several health risks as rodents can carry and transmit diseases such as hantavirus, salmonella, and leptospirosis. Their droppings and urine can contaminate food and surfaces, leading to illness. Additionally, rodents can introduce parasites like fleas, ticks, and mites into your home, further increasing health risks. Rodent-borne diseases can cause a range of symptoms, from mild gastrointestinal distress to severe respiratory issues. Inhaling dust contaminated with rodent droppings can lead to hantavirus pulmonary syndrome, a serious and sometimes fatal respiratory condition. It is crucial to address rodent infestations promptly to protect your health and well-being.

Common signs of a rodent problem include droppings, gnaw marks on furniture or wires, and nests made of shredded materials. You may also hear scratching or scurrying noises, particularly at night, as rodents are nocturnal and most active after dark. Additionally, spotting live or dead rodents, noticing a musky odor, or finding grease marks along walls and baseboards can indicate an infestation. Rodents often use the same paths repeatedly, leaving dark, greasy trails from their fur. If you observe any of these signs, it is essential to contact a professional pest control service promptly. Early detection and intervention can prevent the infestation from worsening and protect your home from further damage.
