Rats be gone

Many homeowners aren't aware of the harmful effects that rats can have on a home. Because rats can create several serious problems, infestations should be addressed immediately.

Rats are harmful because:

• They carry and transmit diseases by leaving their droppings and urine throughout a home
• Droppings and urine can trigger allergies
• They cause structural damage to a home by gnawing on wood and leaving holes in floorboards and walls
• They chew on exposed wires, which can start a house fire

To prevent serious damage to your property and health, contact in the rat control experts from Greenix Pest Control.

Because rats are nocturnal, it is rare to come across one. Unless you come across a living or dead rat, you usually have to rely on identifying the signs of an infestation. These signs include, but are not limited to:

• Rat droppings
• Urine odor
• Smudged surfaces
• Scratching or scampering sounds
• Holes or nests
• Footprints
• Tampered food packaging
• Gnaw marks on wires, cardboard boxes, and wooden items
