Our service area includes Mount Barker and the surrounding areas, so give us a call today to see how we can help you.
With over four decades of experience in the pest control industry, we’re confident that we can handle any kind of rodent problem that you may have.
Mice and rats are very adaptable creatures who are not fussy eaters and happen to find our houses, sheds, garages and gardens a great place to call home. Rodents bring with them many different problems including;
- Odour issues where they harbour, defecate and urinate
- Carry fleas and ticks
- Damage to property and possessions through gnawing, including through house wiring
- Contaminate food with their hair, droppings and urine, resulting in food poisoning and spoilage
- Carry diseases such as leptospirosis and typhus fever
So while some people think mice are cute, you never want to let these pests stay on your property. Protect your family, friends or employees by hiring Terminix for our mouse and rat control. We’ll handle the infestation before the rodents can spread their dangerous diseases to your loved ones.
What are the signs of a mice or rat infestation?
No one wants to realise that mice or rats have infested their home. However, knowing the signs can help if that day ever comes. Some signs include:
- Suspicious droppings
- Holes or marks in the walls or baseboards
- Oil stains along the wall
- Squeaking or scurrying noises, especially at night
- Odd behaviour from pets
- Piles of shredded paper, string, fabric, batting or straw
If you notice any of these signs, contact us at Terminix Pest Weed Control Pty Ltd. We will evaluate the situation, assess the damage and provide treatment options specific to your situation and needs. When you want effective mice and rat control for your Mount Barker residence, rely on us.
How to control?
The first step to controlling rodents is for our experienced technicians to identify what rodent they are dealing with, whether it is mice or rats. Once identified a suitable treatment program can be devised that can include;
- Baiting subfloors, roof voids, outbuildings or exterior of house using lockable rodent stations
- Sealing rodent entry points such as weep holes and vents
- Removing cover that the rodents are using for protection such as weeds and rubbish from yard areas
Eliminating rodents is not as easy as it may seem and if not managed properly the problem can accelerate quickly due a fast breeding cycle. Call in the experts before a little problem turns into an infestation.
