Signs You Have a Rodent Infestation

Because rodents like mice and rats are nocturnal, you may have an active infestation long before you ever see one. It is crucial to be able to identify the tell-tale signs they leave behind. Addressing these signs early is the key to preventing a small problem from growing and protecting your property from damage.

Be on the lookout for these common indicators of a rodent problem:

• Droppings: Small, dark fecal droppings found in pantries, drawers, under sinks, or along baseboards are the most common sign.
• Scratching Noises: Scurrying, squeaking, or scratching sounds coming from within walls, ceilings, or attics, especially at night.
• Gnaw Marks: Evidence of chewing on wood, plastic, food packaging, or electrical wires, which can create a serious fire hazard.
• Grease Marks: Dark smudges or "runways" along walls and baseboards caused by the oils in a rodent's fur as they follow the same path.
• Nests: Finding shredded materials like paper, fabric, or insulation in hidden, sheltered areas of your home.
• Foul Odors: A persistent stale or ammonia-like smell from hidden urine can indicate a significant or long-standing infestation.

If any of these signs are familiar, it is important to contact a professional for a thorough inspection. A trained technician can confirm the pest's identity and locate their nesting sites and primary points of entry.
