Health Risks of a Rat or Mice Infestation

Many people underestimate how serious a rodent problem can be for their health. Rats and mice are known carriers of several diseases that can affect humans even without direct contact with the animal.

Early rodent removal helps protect your family’s health while reducing the risk of costly structural damage to your property.

Hantavirus

Spread through contact with rodent droppings urine or saliva. Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome is a severe respiratory illness found in North America.

Leptospirosis

A bacterial infection spread through rat urine that can contaminate water sources and soil.

Salmonellosis

 Rodents contaminate food preparation surfaces and stored food with bacteria that cause food poisoning.

Allergies and asthma

 Rodent droppings, dander and urine are common triggers particularly for children.

Beyond health concerns, rats and mice cause significant structural damage chewing through wiring (a known fire hazard), insulation, wooden beams and plumbing. The longer an infestation goes untreated the more costly the repair bill becomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have rats or mice?

Mouse droppings are much smaller about the size of a grain of rice. Rats also tend to leave grease marks and gnaw larger rougher holes. If you’re unsure our technician can confirm the species during the inspection.

In most caseswe can respond the same day you call. The removal process itself typically takes one to three weeks for a standard infestation, with regular follow up visits. Larger or more complex infestations may take a bit longer. We keep you informed throughout the entire process.
