pest control products for rodents

Rodents are nasty. Their habitats include sewers and Dumpsters. They drop feces between 50-100 times a day, and urinate almost continuously. They destroy and contaminate much more food than they eat. They vector diseases such as lyssavirus, hantavirus, and bubonic plague. Rodent control is possible with professional pest control products.  Click on the shopping cart to access our complete line of Do It Yourself Products.


The House Mouse is gray or brown with large ears and small eyes. Adults weigh about 1/2 ounce and are 5 1/2 to 7 1/2 inches long, including the tail. Considered one of the most troublesome and economically important pests in the United States, house mice live and thrive under a variety of conditions in and around homes farms, and businesses. House mice consume food meant for humans or pets. They contaminate food-preparation surfaces with their feces and urine, which can contain salmonella-causing bacteria. Mice drop feces 50 to 100 times per day. Fresh droppings are typically soft, black and shiny, although color can be altered by diet. Their constant gnawing causes damage to structures and property.

Habitat
The natural habitat of house mice is fields and woods. They enter structures through openings in buildings, and are quite comfortable cohabitating with humans. Droppings, gnawing evidence and tracks indicate areas where mice are active. Nests made of insulation, paper, or other fibrous materials are often found in sheltered locations. House mice will feed on a wide variety of foods, with cereal grains a particular favorite. They are excellent climbers and can scale any rough vertical surface. They will run along electrical or telephone wires, and can jump up 14 inches from the floor onto a flat surface. A female, in one year, can have up to 10 litters of up to six young each.

Control
Effective mouse control involves sanitation, mouse proofing, and eradication. For an existing infestation, eradication is the first step. Tools available include rodenticides, snap traps, and glue boards. Rodenticides are poisons that kill rodents. They are available in several forms. Grain baits in a meal or pelleted form are available in small, cellophane or paper packets. Bait blocks, which are paraffin infused with rodenticide, are also an option. 

Rat Control

The Norway Rat can be as long as 17 inches, including the tail. The tail is shorter than the length of head and body. Norways can be gray, brown or black in color. Rats drop feces 25 to 50 times per day. Squirrel droppings are similar in appearance to Norway rat droppings but can be distinguished by a twist in the middle of the dropping, giving the appearance of two droppings melded together. Norway rats are prolific breeders. Gestation periods range from 21 to 23 days and the number of young from 2 to 14 per litter. As babies they are blind, naked, and helpless. Life span is from 2 to 3 years.

Habitat
Outdoors, Norway rats prefer fields and farmlands. Inside they live principally in basements, crawlspaces, or in burrows under sidewalks or outbuildings. These rats can enter a structure through a hole the size of a quarter. They feed mainly on plant material, grains being a particular favorite. They have been known to feed on chicken eggs and young chickens. They deposit urine and feces where ever they roam, and are disease vectors for Bubonic plague, endemic typhus fever, ratbite fever, and a few other dreaded diseases.

Control
Effective rat control involves sanitation, rat proofing, and eradication. Tools available for eradication are: rodenticides, snap traps, live traps, multi-catch traps and glueboards.

Roof Rats are black or brown, medium-sized and slender with long, slender tails that are usually longer than the body and head combined. Roof rats are largely commensal rodents living in close proximity to humans. They breed throughout the year. The gestation period is about 22 days, and each litter averages 7-8 young. The young are born hairless, blind, and helpless. Roof rats transmit such human diseases as endemic typhus, ratbite fever, and bubonic plague.

Habitat
Roof rats mostly frequent attics, rafters, and crossbeams of buildings, although occasionally they might be found close to the ground. Commercially they can be found in grocery stores, drug stores, warehouses, feed stores, and poultry houses among others. Roof rats usually leave a greasy residue along their runways. They eat a wide variety of foods, including grains, meats, and almost any item that has nutritive value.

Control
Effective roof rat control involves sanitation, rat proofing, and eradication. Tools available for eradication include: rodenticides, snap traps and glueboards.
