Keeping Rodents Out: A Guide to Roof Rat, Norway Rat, and House Mouse Exclusion

Published December 21st, 2023 by Exodus Exterminating

As the cold months approach, rodents like Roof Rats, Norway Rats, and House Mice are on the lookout for cozy places to spend the winter. 

Unfortunately, your home may seem like the perfect hideaway. These unwanted guests can cause significant damage and health concerns. That's where rodent exclusion comes into play, and Exodus Exterminating in Rochester, NY is here to help you fortify your defenses against these invaders.

Understanding the Rodent Threat:

  1. Roof Rats: These agile climbers are aptly named because they often access homes through roofs and attics. Roof Rats can wreak havoc on your property, chewing through wiring, insulation, and creating unsanitary living conditions.
  2. Norway Rats: Known for their burrowing abilities, Norway Rats can tunnel into your home's foundation or crawlspaces. Once inside, they can damage structures, contaminate food, and pose health risks.
  3. House Mice: Small yet destructive, House Mice can squeeze through tiny openings. They are notorious for chewing on everything from walls to electrical wires, leading to fire hazards and costly repairs.
