Mice and Rats
What has 4 legs, tiny paws, and hates to see Lead Pest Control coming? That’s right, mice and rats.
If you are seeing mice or rats in your home, there is a good chance the problem is bigger than what you see. Rodents can contaminate food, damage property, and quickly multiply. Lead Pest Control helps identify rodent activity, target the source, and protect your home.
What are Mice and Rats?
Mice and rats are common household pests that enter homes looking for food, water, and shelter. They often hide in attics, crawl spaces, garages, basements, wall voids, and kitchens, especially when temperatures drop or access is easy. Call for a free inspection:
Why Mice and Rats Are a Problem
Mice and rats are more than a nuisance. They can contaminate food, spread bacteria, damage insulation, chew wiring, and create ongoing problems if the entry points and nesting areas are not addressed. What starts as a small rodent issue can grow fast.
Signs of Mice and Rat Infestation
Common signs of rodent activity include:
droppings in cabinets, pantries, attics, or storage areas
scratching or movement in walls or ceilings
gnaw marks on wires, wood, or food packaging
strong odors in hidden areas
nesting materials such as insulation, paper, or debris
seeing live mice or rats in or around the home
food, including pet food, in places it doesn’t belong, like a couch or behind the tv
What Attracts Rodents?
Mice and rats are often attracted by:
accessible food sources
crumbs, spills, and pet food
moisture and water sources
cluttered storage areas
easy entry points around the home
warm, protected shelter indoors
Prevention Tips
Seal gaps and openings around the exterior
Store food in sealed containers
Clean up crumbs and spills quickly
Reduce clutter in garages, basements, and storage spaces
