Rodent infestations are major disruptions to homeowners’ lives. Not only do rats and mice cause unpleasant odors and unsanitary conditions that can make a home downright uninhabitable, they also can do extensive damage by burrowing in insulation and chewing on wiring and other installations.
Left untreated, an infestation can quickly grow, making it more and more difficult to treat, leading to more costly repairs. To avoid these issues, simply call Kilter Termite and Pest Control – the leading rodent removal specialists serving Los Angeles, California.
What Attracts Mice and Rats?
Rodents can be a major problem for any Los Angeles home, so it’s important to understand what attracts them. Whether it’s the rat running across your kitchen floor or the mouse in your attic, both rodents are always searching for food, shelter, water, and warmth wherever they can find it. Areas that have a plentiful amount of food like garbage cans and food pantries are especially inviting to mice and rats. Cracks in windows, walls, and entryways also provide an easy access point for rodents, enabling them to enter your home with ease. Additionally, areas with good sheltering opportunities such as gardens, attics, cluttered areas, basements, garages, roofs, and sheds offer prime spots to nest.
As there are so many potential attractants and ways for rodents to enter your property, it's important to keep a watchful eye for any signs of rats or mice.
Signs of a Rodent Infestation:
- Droppings or urine stains
- Gnaw marks on household items, such as food packaging, boxes, baseboards, drywall, and the like
- Nests or piles of nesting materials
- Scratching or scurrying sounds behind walls
- Musky or stale odors
- Small holes in the walls or floors
- Changes in pet behavior
- Small dirt marks or tracks

What Sort of Damage Do Rodents Cause?
Rodents can cause a wide range of damage, from small-scale destruction to more serious infestations. Not only can rats and mice spread diseases, but they can also ruin furniture as well as cause structural damage to your home’s insulation, drywall, siding, and wiring with their chewing. Additionally, when rats or mice gnaw on electrical wires it can put your home at risk of short circuits, fires, and other electrical problems. Rodent infestations also cause more pests to often follow, bringing fleas, mites, and ticks into the home. Furthermore, rodent droppings and urine can contaminate surfaces and food sources causing illnesses and even exposing people to dangerous diseases. That’s why it is essential for homeowners to take preventative measures against rodent infestations in Los Angeles as soon as possible because even just one rodent can cause immense destruction in a short amount of time.
How to Get Rid of Rats and Mice:
- Keep your home clear of any clutter
- Seal off any cracks, holes, or crevices that might allow rodents to enter into the home
- Store food properly
- Dispose of garbage regularly
- Keep trash cans closed
- Clean any spills
- Have any pipe leaks repaired
- Invest in professional pest management solutions
All in all, rodents can pose serious threats to our health and property if they are not dealt with swiftly and properly using professional rodent control services. So, if you believe you are dealing with an infestation, contact our Los Angeles mice control pros today for service!
