Understanding the Rodent Threat in Niagara Homes
The Niagara region is a beautifully diverse area, but with such beauty comes unique challenges in home protection, especially against invasive pest species. One of the biggest threats to your home is the potential invasion of rodents. Unlike their depiction in charming children's books or cute cartoons, the reality of living with these furry home invaders is less than pleasant. The Hazards of Housing Rodents Rodents can carry diseases, cause property damage, and even disrupt your peace of mind — and they're not constrained by seasons. True control means being as vigilant in preparing for their arrival as they are at winterizing your home.Signs of a Pest Problem
How do you even know if you have a pest problem? There are clear indicators that every homeowner should be aware of:- Droppings: Rodent feces are a sure sign of infestation. They are often found in places where rodents are active, like cupboards, under the sink, or along baseboards.
- Gnaw Marks: New, rough wood gnaw marks indicate a current infestation, while older, smooth, and cleaned wood marks can show previous issues the rodents believe they've ‘fixed.'
- Strange Noises: Hearing scratching in the walls or ceilings, particularly at night, can be a clear sign of unwelcome pests
- Unusual Pet Behaviour: If your pets suddenly start sniffing around a particular spot or become fixated, there might be a good reason.
- Nests: Any kind of shredded paper or other soft, warm materials indicate rodent nesting behaviour.
