Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are rodents dangerous to my health?

    Yes, rodents can pose significant health risks to humans and pets. They can transmit various diseases through their droppings and urine. Hantavirus, leptospirosis, and salmonellosis are among the potential illnesses that rodents can carry. In addition to disease transmission, rodents can trigger allergies and exacerbate asthma symptoms, especially in sensitive individuals.

  • How do I know if I have a rodent infestation?

    Recognizing a rodent infestation early is crucial for prompt and effective control. Look for signs such as droppings, gnaw marks on food containers or wires, and nests made of shredded materials. You may also hear scratching or scampering sounds in the walls or attic. If you notice any of these signs, it's essential to act quickly to prevent the problem from escalating.

Local Pest Challenges in Marshall County

Marshall County’s climate supports a wide range of pests throughout the year. Understanding local pest behavior allows us to develop effective solutions for the most common infestations in the area, including:

  • Termites – Warm and humid conditions create the perfect environment for termites, which can cause extensive structural damage.
  • Rodents – Mice and rats seek food and shelter in homes and businesses, leading to contamination and property damage.
  • Ants, Mosquitoes, and Seasonal Insects – Changing weather patterns bring waves of different pests, each requiring targeted control measures.

Pests do more than cause inconvenience—they can also present serious risks. Termites weaken wooden structures, sometimes leading to costly repairs. Rodents spread disease and contaminate food supplies, while insects like mosquitoes and fleas can pose health concerns. Addressing these infestations quickly helps prevent further damage and potential health hazards.
