The rodent in the home or property may be a roof rat or a house mouse. The roof rat is 12 to 18 inches long and is either black or brown. These nocturnal rats will feed on virtually anything that is available including meat, tree bark, and grain. These rats are also prodigious breeders, which can make infestation worsen rapidly. At only two and five months, they can already start breeding, producing four to six litters per year, with each litter made up of six to eight baby rats, which have a life expectancy of one year. They are found in both rural and urban areas and they can easily adapt to a broad range of environments. They are usually found in wall cavities and false ceilings because they tend to live in the dry upper levels of buildings. They may carry infectious diseases in their blood.

The house mouse is 3 to 4 inches long, excluding the tail, and is gray colored. These mice are herbivores and they prefer cereal grains although they will eat any kind of food and food scraps. They can be found in both urban and rural areas and they are capable of easily adapting to a wide range of environments and they can enter a home through an opening as small as one-fourth inch. These mice can carry the bacteria for leptospirosis and salmonella.

The expert technicians from Pinnacle Pest Control will first trap and remove the existing rodents in the property. Next, they will seal all of the potential entry points and put down some and bait and traps to prevent the rodents from re-entering the property. And finally, they will restore the space, such as the attic, to its original state, by performing some repair and conducting deodorization and decontamination procedures.

It is important to note that rodents usually seek refuge in homes or other buildings to avoid the cold temperatures during fall and winter. They will usually be attracted to the food and water available in the home or building and can gain entry through small openings. The problem with rodents is that they can contaminate food and cause damage to building structures because of their constant gnawing and burrowing. They can leave unpleasant odors and can cause a commercial establishment to lose customers.

It is important to be wary of any sightings of live or dead rats or mice because these usually indicate rodent activity. Other indications are droppings, oil smears from their fur, gnawed food packages, and rat paths.
