They are happy to clear up after us when we leave food on the streets or spill grain in the countryside but no one wants them to be too close to their home or garden. Mice are commonly found nesting in loft spaces and can keep you awake at night. Fortunately, it is unusual to have rats in the home. You are more likely to see rats outside and in your out buildings rather than in your home. Rodents are not only serious risk to your health; they can also damage the fabric and structure of buildings and destroy crops, plants and flowers.
Rodent’s teeth growth at a constant rate through their lives so they need to gnaw constantly to keep them at the right length. Rats and mice can cause damage to your home by gnawing through wood as well as chewing through electrical cables. This often leads to damaged electrical cables and actual buildings, causing fires, floods and expensive repair bills – hence the need for rodent control.

Rodents carry an alarming amount of diseases such as tuberculosis, salmonella, gastro- enteritis, rat bite fever, leptospirosis and numerous others, all of which have serious health implications. Their droppings and fur will also contaminate food preparation surfaces and foodstuffs. Rodents are incontinent and consequently foul wherever they travel.
Rodents also breed at an accelerated speed. As a yardstick it is estimated that if two mice were left in a building with a food source for twelve months their population would grow to 2000.
With many insurance companies no longer insuring against rodent damage, it is important that this pest is excluded from premises with the latest rodent control techniques before they cause damage.
