Rodents Seek Shelter in Attics and Crawl Spaces as Fall Approaches.
Universal Pest & Termite Urges
homeowners in Chesapeake, Virginia Beach, Suffolk, and Newport News to Take Preventive Measures.
As the crisp fall air begins to settle in, Universal Pest & Termite is alerting homeowners in Chesapeake, Virginia Beach, Suffolk, and Newport News to a seasonal threat that often goes unnoticed: rodents seeking shelter in attics and crawl spaces.
With the drop in temperature, rodents such as mice and rats begin searching for warm, dry places to nest and breed. Attics and crawl spaces, which offer secluded and undisturbed environments, are prime real estate for these pests. Once inside, rodents can cause significant damage by gnawing on electrical wiring, insulation, and wood structures. Additionally, they pose health risks as carriers of diseases and parasites.
“We've noticed an uptick in rodent activity as fall approaches, which is a clear indicator that homeowners need to be vigilant,” said Tanner Baine, Operations Manager of Universal Pest & Termite.“Rats and mice are not just a nuisance; they can cause serious damage to your property and compromise your family's health.”
Signs of a Rodent Infestation:
.Droppings: Small, pellet-shaped droppings around food sources, in cabinets, or along baseboards.
.Gnaw Marks: Fresh gnaw marks on food packaging, wires, or structural wood.
.Noises: Scratching or scampering sounds in walls, ceilings, or attics, particularly at night.
.Nests: Shredded paper, fabric, or other materials gathered in secluded areas.
Preventive Rat and Mouse Measures.
Universal Pest & Termite recommends the following steps to safeguard your home from a rodent invasion this fall:
.Seal Entry Points: Inspect your home's exterior for cracks, gaps, and holes. Seal any openings larger than a quarter inch.
.Secure Food Sources: Store food in airtight containers and keep pet food sealed and off the floor.
.Trim Vegetation: Keep tree branches and shrubs trimmed away from your home to reduce access points.
.Maintain Cleanliness: Regularly clean up crumbs, spills, and clutter that may attract rodents.
.Inspect Regularly: Conduct regular inspections of attics and crawl spaces for any signs of rodent activity.
