Rodent Management

Rodents can turn your home or business into a health hazard, carrying diseases like Salmonella and Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis (LCMV), which can be particularly dangerous for pregnant women. Mice and rats are notorious for spreading illnesses through their urine, droppings, and bites. They also pose significant risks to property by gnawing on materials, potentially causing electrical hazards. At Seva Facility, we specialize in comprehensive rodent management solutions to protect your space from these invasive pests.

Why Rodent Management Matters

Rodents are more than just a nuisance; they can seriously impact health and safety. Mice and rats leave behind trails of urine and droppings, which can trigger allergic reactions and asthma attacks in sensitive individuals. In severe cases, they might even bite if they feel threatened, posing a risk to young children and pets. Additionally, their constant gnawing can damage property and create fire hazards, especially if they chew through electrical wires.

Rodent Behavior and Risks

1. Health Risks: Rodents are carriers of various infectious diseases. Salmonella from their droppings can lead to food poisoning, while LCMV poses significant health risks, particularly to pregnant women. Mice urine can exacerbate asthma, and rat bites can cause infections or allergic reactions.
2. Property Damage: Rodents have a natural instinct to gnaw on objects. This behavior can result in significant damage to stored food, household items, and even electrical wiring, creating a fire risk.
3. Entry Points: Rodents can enter buildings through surprisingly small openings. A gap larger than 1/4 inch (6 mm) is enough for a house mouse to squeeze through, making it crucial to seal potential entry points.
