What Are Rodents?

The term rodent defines more than both mice and rats. Rodents are night-traveling creatures.  They are known to eat and contaminate food,  and damage property by their gnawing, scratching, & burrowing.  Some may even spread diseases (such as salmonella) that affect people and pets.

Did you know that other than spreading disease, rodents can cause physical damage to property?  Since a rodents front teeth grow and expand as they age, they must continually bite, chew and gnaw on physical objects to maintain and wear down these teeth to keep them at an acceptable size for their mouths. This constant chewing, grinding, and gnawing activity can damage walls, doors, electrical or power lines, and security alarms. Rodents will also search for soft nesting items / materials and will essentially chew, grind or gnaw at anything stored in garages, storage sheds, and basements.
