How to Stop Rodents from Entering Your Auburn, AL Home

Practicing efficient rodent control could help you prevent an infestation from occurring in the first place. There’s no guarantee that rodents won’t end up on your doorstep anyway, but a home (or business) that actively takes measures to prevent this certainly lessens the desirability of their property to rodents. Some top tips include:

  • Do not leave food scraps around. Even crumbs and dirty dishes can be appealing to rodents. Put all excess food in air-tight containers, even if rodents can eat through them. There’s no reason to invite them to dinner.
  • Take out the trash regularly and keep it at a safe distance from your home if possible.
  • Clean dirty surfaces and sanitize the home through vacuuming and mopping.
  • Check for holes and gaps. Rodents can squeeze through surprisingly tight spaces, and seemingly impossible holes. They aren’t opposed to making their own, either.
  • Homes with chimneys or businesses with ventilation should ensure that there is a screen that stops rodents from getting in.
  • Avoid humid spaces if possible. Rodents like to nest wherever there is moisture.
  • Don’t leave firewood stacked up against a wall, and keep shrubbery trimmed back from your home to limit the number of hiding spaces that rodents have access to. The fewer places there are to hide, the less appealing your property will be.
