June 22, 2022

5 Reasons Why Rodents Are a Pest, left untreated, rodents can destroy your home, eat through wiring and ducted systems, contaminate your food and spread disease. 

They are nocturnal and will disturb your sleep as they make sounds while causing destruction at night time.

Rodents can also spread disease in your home via urine and droppings, in rare cases they spread disease through biting.

Mice can also be a problem in residential areas.

This is why Rodent control should be optimised in winter, as this is when rodents are actively looking for places to nest and have babies.

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.
