Here are a few reasons why it is important to keep mice and rats out of your home and attic:
Health risks: Mice and rats can carry diseases that can be transmitted to humans through their urine, feces, and bites. These diseases include salmonella, hantavirus, and leptospirosis.
Property damage: Mice and rats have a tendency to chew on things, which can cause damage to your home’s structure and wiring. This can be a fire hazard and can also be expensive to repair.
Infestations: Mice and rats reproduce quickly, so if you have one or two in your home, it is likely that you will soon have an infestation. This can be difficult and costly to control.
Noise and mess: Mice and rats can be noisy, especially at night, and can leave droppings and urine throughout your home. This can be unpleasant and unsanitary.
Allergies: Some people may have allergies to mice and rats, which can cause symptoms such as sneezing, itchy eyes, and difficulty breathing.
