Rodent Control that is

Mouse facts:

By mid-fall of every year, through out most of the U.S. and similar temperate zones, domestic mice and rats and some other local outdoors species will ,have already found the places they plan to spend the winter. There may not yet be enough signs for you to notice them, their droppings or other signs, but that could change quickly. They have most likely begun producing their next litters, and have found and laid down trails to the places where you keep the food and nesting materials they will need for the next several months.

Mice can spread more than 20 kinds of organisms that can cause diseases of humans and pets. These include a variety of food poisoning bacteria like Salmonella, Shigella, E. coli, and others; tapeworms, mites, ticks, and rickettsial pox. Other rodents, which are widespread and may also come indoors for the winter such as deer mice and white-footed mice which can carry and spread other disease organisms like Hantavirus, plague and Lyme Disease.

It is estimated that rats destroy one-fifth of the food produced every year. They spread disease, and, because of their constant gnawing, they cause damage to homes and businesses. They are often responsible for electrical fires. Rats have a territory of anywhere from 100 to 300 feet, which they expore daily. They tend to follow the same paths, or runs, over and over again.

The two main types of rats that cause problems are the Roof rat (Rattus rattus) and the Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus), also called the sewer, wharf, or brown rat. In Kansas City, the Norway Rat is the main problem. Norway rats weigh about 10-17 ounces, have a body between 7-10 inches long and a tail between 6-8.5 inches. One pair of rats shed more than one million body hairs each year and a single rat leaves 25,000 droppings in a year.

Rats transmit Murine typhus fever, rat bite fever, salmonellosis or bacterial food poisoning, Weils disease or leptospirosis and trichinosis, melioidosid, brucellosis, tuberculosis, pasteurellosis, rickettsial diseases, and viral diseases such as foot-and-mouth disease. Norway rats can also carry the rabies virus.

Successful control depends on proper identification of the different species. Norway and Roof rats differ in size, habits, food preferences and regions. Techniques that eliminate one species may not eliminate the other.

Many times roof rats live in the upper stories of buildings, while Norway rats occupy the basement and first floor of the same building.
