Perils posed by rats and mice
- Property damage
Your property is at peril when the rodents decide to build a home for themselves under your roof. They collect nesting materials for construction from your household items like furniture, carpet, sofa, cotton, clothing, wires, paper and other spongy materials. This can cause large scale damage and the consequent spending of money to repair or replace damaged items. They spare nothing when rodents are hungry or in need of construction material for their nests and will cut, chew, gnaw, bite and shred all items that they come across. Besides fixtures and furniture, mice will also set upon home appliances, electric panels, wiring, insulation, drywalls, car engines, sofas, and other furniture they deem fit for gnawing or chewing.
- Food damage
Mice will ransack bags of grain or cattle feed when they get the opportunity. Mice are fond of eating cereals, nuts, seeds and fruits hence won’t spare birdseeds or cattle feed. Peanut butter and greasy foods attract mice and they will rip open packets or plastic containers to get them. They will scavenge during nights and invade kitchen and dining table to get them. They will also raid food shelves and spill the contents on the floor. When they hunt for food they also waste them considerably. Being small creatures they eat very little but eat several times in a day which at the end may turn out to be huge food loss. Mice won’t stop at this and will proceed to contaminate the food items by defecating and urinating on them. Mice carry dangerous infections that they spread directly and indirectly by parasites living in their fur cover.
- Health damage
Rodents are capable of spreading terminal illnesses that can kill if not given proper care and treatment. Rats and mice are responsible for contaminating homes and spreading contagious diseases like Plague, Hantavirus, LCMV rat-bite-fever, Salmonellosis and other equally dangerous diseases. You will get infected by these diseases if you directly handle the live or dead body of rodents or get bitten by fleas and mites that are parasitic and have taken asylum in rats or mice fur cover. Diseases spread by mice are terminal in nature if they grow into serious conditions.
