Things to Do to Protect your
Home:
Inspect your home at least
once a week. Train your family
members on what to look for
signs of rodents in the house
into their daily chores.
4. Sealing off entry points is essential. Make it difficult for rodents
to enter your residence. Install door sweeps, seal cracks, check
for small spaces under your doors and put door sweeps. Make
sure to get rid of gaps around utility boxes and lines.
Protect your restroom. One tip that is very useful is to install
plastic, one-way rodent-proofing valves in toilets to prevent mice
and rodent from entering your residence via the sewer. Rodents
are great swimmers.
Take out the trash every day and seal the top of your waste with
an airtight lid.

5. Things not to do during the Winter:
Leave out food in your home. Rodents aren’t gourmet eaters and
will take advantage of any food left out.
Clutter in your residence. Make sure you clean up your rooms
and don’t leave clutter in your home. Rodents love chaos, and
the clutter gives them a unique opportunity to bread and hide.
Let the landscaping around your home run wild and not
maintaining a clean yard. Rodents like roof rats take advantage of
tree branches touching your residents, so make sure to trim the
trees.

the water around your gutters give rodents the opportunity to
thrive outside your home.
