Rodent Exterminator and Removal Services in Southern California

Rodent infestations present a multitude of issues that can affect both health and property. Understanding these issues is crucial for effectively addressing and preventing rodent infestations:

Health Issues:

• Rodents are carriers of various diseases and pathogens, including salmonella, leptospirosis, hantavirus, and rat-bite fever. These diseases can be transmitted to humans through direct contact with rodents, their droppings, urine, or saliva, as well as through contaminated food or surfaces.
• Rodents also harbor disease-carrying parasites such as fleas, ticks, mites, and lice, which can further exacerbate health risks for humans and pets. These parasites can transmit additional diseases and cause allergic reactions and skin irritations.

Property Damage:

• Rodents pose a significant threat to property integrity by causing damage to structures, electrical wiring, insulation, and personal belongings. They have strong gnawing instincts and can chew through wood, plastic, and even metal, leading to structural weaknesses and fire hazards.
• Rodents are known to contaminate food sources with their droppings, urine, and hair, rendering them unfit for human consumption. They also cause damage to stored food items, packaging materials, and agricultural products, resulting in financial losses for homeowners and businesses.

Rodent extermination requires a comprehensive approach to effectively address the infestation:

• Trapping and Baiting: Utilizing indoor/outdoor traps and baits to capture and eliminate rodents.
• House/Property Proofing: Implementing measures to eliminate rodent access points and reduce the attractiveness of properties to rodents.
• Maintenance Plans: Establishing ongoing monitoring and treatment plans to prevent future infestations.
• Attic Decontamination and Renewal: Conducting thorough decontamination and restoration efforts, including deep fogging for ectoparasite elimination, deodorization, insulation removal, vacuuming, and replacement.
