Mice
Mice are uninvited guests that no homeowner or business owner wants. These pests are not only a nuisance but also a health hazard, particularly in kitchens and food storage areas, where they can spread diseases while searching for food and shelter. They also tend to breed rapidly, which aggravates the issue at an exponential rate.
Their rapid reproduction is particularly troublesome. The pathogens present in their faeces and urine can contaminate food, leading to disease transmission, and their attraction to wood and electrical wiring can potentially result in fire hazards. Pose Fire Risks: They are attracted to wood and electrical wiring, increasing the risk of fires.
Rats
Rats are another type of rodent that shows an unwavering determination when it comes to infiltrating properties, to the point of even chewing through brick. And once they’re in? It’s not just about the creepy factor—they bring disease, destruction, and contamination with them.
Imagine your home or business turned into a rat’s playground. Contaminate Food, Rat droppings and urine carry pathogens that can spread diseases such as (Leptospirosis), and Salmonellosis. These pathogens can transmit serious diseases such as Rat bite fever and Weil’s disease.

They can trigger asthma and allergies.

Eliminating Pests: How to Live Bug-Free
Any unwanted animal which has invaded your home is considered a pest, but homeowners most frequently complain about bugs, rodents and squirrels. Because many of these pests are so small, it is easy to forget that they are living in the world all around us. While they certainly have their role in the circle of life, that does not mean that we want to be graced with their presence. This is particularly true when it comes to our house. Therefore, you need to be aware of how to secure your home against these animals. The following information will help you to keep pests at bay and live a bug-free life.
If you want your home to stay pest free, you must not give the pests a reason to move in. One of the main attractions for animals is an easy source of food. Some of the time, all they are looking for is a dry and warm place they could make a home. If you can make it more difficult for them to find what they need, they will not come inside as often. Cleanliness is therefore very important to this process. Items should be kept in secure packaging and storage containers, in either a refrigerator or kitchen cupboard. When you make a meal, pack it away in an air tight container almost immediately after enjoying it. Take out your trash often as well, so you do not have food scraps sitting around. Even if they come into your home, they will find no reason to linger and create a nest.
5 out of 5 stars
Making a clean home a priority will also deter another common pest; bugs. keep your floors clean and wipe away all spills as soon as they happen. Put used dishes in the dishwasher so that they are not left sitting out. Keep your floors and other surfaces dry to avoid attracting pests. In addition, if you notice a leak, make sure the situation is rectified.
Animals often enter homes when the seasons change and the weather turns cooler. Plug up spaces and crevices that seemingly offer easy passage into your home. Sealant or caulking should do the trick.
It is important to pick up around the outside of the house to discourage pests from nesting. Sweep up any plant and leaf debris, and never stack piles of wood near your house. You should also check your pets regularly for ticks and fleas, as these can be lurking in the grass.
Keeping your home free of pests is very straightforward if you adhere to these basic tips. Cleanliness is key, and if you are able to do that, the rest will fall into place.
You may well need a professional if your problem is multiple pests in the house.
