Rochester Rodent Control
Having the Mayo around the corner can have varying impacts on people. Some may feel comforted by the proximity of health protection and others may be hyper vigilant about avoiding a visit to the clinic. Regardless of your overall health strategy, don’t forget to take the rodents into account. Rochester rodent control is a key element to maintaining personal and public health as well as protecting food sources from contamination.
Pathogens
Mice and rats are great movie characters and shouldn’t bother us if they stay in the wild, but when they enter our homes and businesses they threaten to directly transmit:
- Hantavirus
- Hemorrhagic Fever
- Lassa Fever
- Leptospirosis
- LCM
- Plague
- Rat-bite fever
- Salmonellosis
- Tularemia
Control
Rochester rodent control focuses on:
- Monitoring for early detection
- Blocking access and entry
- Removing rodents from where they shouldn’t be but already are
- Reducing rodent populations that are pressuring structures and supplies
- Restoring sanitation conditions to healthy levels
Wise Ones
Rodents have more advanced brains than many of the pests we typically deal with here in Rochester. When dealing with a wiser than normal enemy, it is best to have a plan in place. Rodents are quick to pick up on things that are out of the ordinary in their environment. This is why they are able to avoid traps and baits that many people place for them. In addition to their mental components, they have some pretty impressive physical abilities such as:
- Running up walls
- Squeezing through ¼ inch gaps
- Extracting water needs from food
- Jumping higher and farther in relation to their size than we could dream of
