Our technicians have run crazy the last two weeks with rodent distress calls.” I was not expecting this many rodent issues so soon but surprise, surprise!” said Brandon Beucher, service manager of Beucher & Son Termite and Pest Control, Inc.
We hear the same concerns, day after day….
“I hear them in the attic every night, there must be a hundred of ‘em”
“We opened the attic hatch door and this horrible odor came from our attic”
“How did those RATS get into my house!?”
Most rodent problems arise from homes and businesses that have not been properly sealed from rodent entry while some of the homes and businesses have never been sealed from the damaging rodents.
Rodents can get inside your home some ways that are easy to discover and a few ways that will usually take a professional to find.
Their dirty, oily bodies will leave “rub marks” where ever their bodies come in contact with over a time.
The evenings are getting (somewhat) cooler and the humidity isn’t so extreme as of late. This usually tells the rodents that cool weather is approaching and its time to start looking for a nice cozy home to live in for a while.
Once they are inside your homes attic, wall voids and crawl space, they can cause all kinds of serious damage.

Rodents need to chew all the time and many house fires have been caused by their chewing on electrical wires.












Rats, rats what rats. We don’t have any rats and if they heard something like that possum they would think it was a herd of rats. Great info, thanks…
