As the weather cools down, rodents will seek warmer places to nest. Unfortunately, your home might just be the perfect spot for them. But don't worry, you can do a few things to deter these unwelcome guests.
1. Store dry and pet food in metal or glass containers
Rodents can easily chew through cardboard, so it's important to use containers that they can't get into.
2. Remove any clutter in your garage or shed
These areas provide perfect hiding spots for rodents, so keeping them as clean as possible is essential.
3. Raise storage off the ground
To keep your food away from pesky and destructive rodents, store it in a sealable container off the ground, like a shelf or other raised surface.
4. Practice good sanitation
In addition to regular dusting and vacuuming, pay special attention to common areas like the kitchen and bathroom.
5. Keep your lawn mowed and free of debris
Cutting back vegetation and picking up fallen fruit will limit food sources and help deter rodents from taking up residence on your property.
