As more regions across Canada see a growing rodent population, Orkin Canada is reminding Canadians of the steps that can be taken to mitigate rodents from entering their homes and frequenting their property:

• Trim trees and shrubs: Keep vegetation at least one metre from building exteriors to remove hiding spots and prevent rodents from climbing onto your property.
  
• Eliminate water sources: Fix leaking gutters, clear standing water from trash bins, and address other moisture issues to make your property less attractive to pests.
  
• Inspect for signs: Regularly check for droppings, burrows, gnaw marks, or rub marks along walls. Early detection is crucial.
  
• Seal entry points: Close cracks larger than 1/4 inch and install weather stripping on doors to block access.
  
• Maintain cleanliness: Clean up crumbs and spills immediately, store food - including pet food - in sealed containers, and avoid leaving dishes out overnight.
