How to Prevent A Rodent Infestation
Rodents seek three things: food, shelter, and water. That means it’s more common for mice, rats, squirrels, and other rodents to find their way into your home during the cooler months. As these pests can transmit various diseases, cause allergy flare-ups, and even bring in fleas and ticks, it’s necessary to know what you can do to prevent them from entering your home in the first place.
Some tips for keeping mice, rats, squirrels, and other rodents out of your home are:
- Seal possible openings, such as garages, attics, and windows, with caulk or steel wool

- Store firewood at least 20 feet away from the home and five feet above the ground
