Rodent control: Understand habits, biology

Don Stetler, Sales Representative, Ensystex

Rodent control can sometimes be a tricky business. Rodents adapt well to any environment, and are very intelligent creatures. As cooler weather arrives, mice and rats begin to search for warmer environments. However, the truth is rodents generally are a problem year-round.

To understand “rodent control,” you must first understand rodent habits and some biology. A thorough inspection should reveal: whether the infestation is rats or mice, conducive client habits, possible rodent station placement opportunities, environmental factors and probable exclusions needed.
