Learn
how to identify signs of rodents
- Look for droppings and gnaw marks. These are
common signs that rodents have been present.
- Droppings are common in cabinets, drawers, and
other areas out of plain sight.
Seal
gaps, holes, and food sources
- Look for gaps inside your home. Look under and
behind kitchen cabinets; around doors and windows; and in the
attic and basement or crawlspace.
- Look for gaps outside too. Look in the roof
among rafters, gables, eaves, and soffits and around vents and
holes for electrical, plumbing, and other lines.
- Seal any gaps and holes you find.
- Keep human and pet food sealed up and keep
areas in and outside your home clean to avoid attracting rodents.
Set
traps
- If you see evidence of rodents, set traps
throughout your home. Set them in areas where you’ve seen rodents,
droppings, or gnaw marks.
- Check traps daily and dispose of dead rodents
immediately.
- Keep traps out of reach of kids and pets.
