Signs of a Rodent Infestation
Knowing when to call for professional rodent control is critical to preventing costly damage and health hazards. Here are some telltale signs of a rodent infestation:
- Musty or stale odor
- Dead or live rodents
- Small, pellet-like droppings
- Burrows in yards or gardens
- Chew marks on walls, furniture, food packaging, or wiring
- Nesting materials (shredded paper, insulation, fabric, etc.)
- Unusual noises, such as scratching, scurrying, or gnawing sounds
Can Rodents Transmit Diseases?
While rodents can appear cute and cuddly, these animals are known carriers of diseases that can be transmitted to humans through handling, bites, contaminated air or materials, and contact with droppings, urine, or saliva.
Health risks include viral and bacterial diseases like leptospirosis, rat-bite fever, sylvatic typhus, salmonellosis, tularemia, Lassa fever, Mpox, lymphocytic choriomeningitis (LCM), and South American arenaviruses.
Rodents also carry ticks, mites, and fleas that can spread illnesses, meaning you can’t tell if a rodent is sick just by looking at it. Calling a trusted exterminator is essential to protect your family’s health.
