Mice and rats aren't just an eyesore — they chew through wiring, insulation, and food storage, and they carry disease. At The Bedbugsters, we treat rodent problems with the same thoroughness we bring to bedbugs.
🧐 What Are We Dealing With?
House mice — small, gray-brown, active year-round, especially fall/winter
Roof rats & Norway rats — larger, more destructive, often nest in attics, crawlspaces, or woodpiles
⚠️ Why Rodents Are a Problem
Gnaw through wires, wood, and pipes — a real fire and structural risk
Contaminate food and surfaces with droppings and urine
Reproduce fast — a few mice can become dozens within months
🧼 How Do They Get Inside?
Gaps as small as a dime around pipes, vents, and foundations
Garage doors, crawlspace vents, and rooflines
Especially common in cabins closed up between guest stays
🧰 What We Do About It
Inspection to find entry points and nesting/travel signs
Exclusion — sealing the gaps that let them in, not just trapping
Targeted trapping and monitoring, with follow-up checks
💡 What You Can Do
Store food in sealed containers
Keep firewood and debris away from the foundation
Report droppings or gnaw marks early
