3 simple steps to safeguard your home and control Rodents in Doncaster by Pest-Zap pest control.

A female rodent can have up to 15 litters in a year with an average litter size of 10-12 babies.

This is a terrifying thought and even scarier when they make your lovely home their home! This is why rodent control is crucial for protecting your home and family. 

Zap The Gap

Rodents can get through a gap the size of your thumb tip, so start by looking around your home’s foundation for holes or cracks and fill these up with steel wool.  

Subfloor hatch doors should always be closed with no gaps as this is a golden invitation for rodents to explore your subfloor.

Proof Your Roof

Any breaks or gaps in your roof can allow for rodents to get in and explore your roof cavity – which makes an ideal rodent home as it is warm and inviting for them.  

See to having breaks mended and gaps filled.

Clean and Hygiene

A sure-fire method to prevent rodent infestations is to clean up all foodstuffs.  

Start with pet food bowls, once your pet has had their meal, immediately take away the bowl and wash it, clean up all food scraps around it.  

 After a BBQ, be sure to clean the grill and not leave any leftover food out.

If you suspect, hear noises in your roof or notice rodent evidence such as droppings in and around your home, contact the experts at Pest-Zap for effective rodent control and removal.
