Everything Nephi Homeowners Need To Know About Rodent Infestations

Rodents like rats and mice sneak inside Nephi homes in order to access food, shelter, and water. They are some of the most tenacious pests with their ability to fit through pinky finger-sized openings and in the case of rats, climb trees or use sewer systems. Rodents are very often hosts to a variety of parasites like fleas, mites, and ticks, so having an infestation usually leads to another outbreak. Rodents come with their own health risks, as they are known to leave behind urine, saliva, and piles of droppings all of which are associated with leptospirosis, rat-bite fever, salmonella, and more. These pests can also lead to serious property damage due to their constant need to chew. This may mean creating holes in walls, shredding clothing and other fabrics, and house fires. Rodents are an even bigger issue because they breed every several months making rats capable of producing up to 60 pups a year and mice can have up to 120.

A Guide To Keeping Ants Out Of Your Nephi Home

Ants are a constant threat to Nephi homes, but there are some ways you can keep them from becoming an issue for you. Try these tips:

• Start on the inside. Ants are ravenous when it comes to foods that are sweet or substances that they perceive as such. In order to make your home less attractive to ants, clean up any spills thoroughly and this includes soaps and shampoos. Additionally, keep all food properly covered and take the trash out often. 

• Look at the outside. The outside of your home can actually be a huge attraction for ants, whether that means leaky pipes and condensation collection or improperly storing larger garbage bins. Aim to address any troublesome gutters and spigots while also securing trash bins. 

• Seal things up. Because of their small size and determination, ants can fit through almost any opening that they find. This makes filling up openings around doors and windows, as well as crevices in your foundation imperative. 

• Contact the pros. Try as you might, the most reliable way to avoid ant problems is with professional assistance. Contact a local pest control expert for more tips.
