Do Not Give Roof Rats a Home!

There’s no season quite like this one for pest infestations. This time of year, it’s not uncommon to see anything from ants to moths to mice . . . but one of the worst things to find in your home this winter is roof rats. Besides being dangerous pests and vectors of deadly diseases, roof rats aren’t well known. What are these creatures, and what are the best ways to keep roof rats out?

Identifying Roof Rats

Roof rats are easy to mistake for common rats. They have brown fur and long, thin tails (with no fur on them). Unlike common rats, though, you’ll often find that roof rats are willing to climb just about anything to get into your home. They make their homes in trees and gutters many times but are perfectly willing to chew through drywall, siding, or even aluminum in order to make your home theirs. Even if you’ve got vinyl siding, roof rats will try to find their way in-which makes it even more worrying when they’re known carriers of diseases like typhus.

Roof Rat Prevention

Luckily, there are plenty of ways to make sure that these dangerous rodents don’t find their way into your home. Keep all food- even pet food- sealed and closed, and even tucked into a refrigerator or a cabinet if possible. Make sure nothing edible is left outside at night and clean up any spills as soon as they’re made. Even puddles can provide roof rats with drinking water, so make sure everything outside is clean and covered. Make sure there are no holes in your house, either- whether they’re in your screen doors, your siding, or even your roof, roof rats will find their way inside.

How Listening to Your Clients Wants and Needs Can Help You Land More Sales

Image
Business owners often do more talking than listening. When it comes to making sales, often it’s best to do more listening than talking.
