As the weather grows colder, mice, rats, and other pests will be looking for a safe, warm place to spend the winter. Human homes and businesses are a perfect place for these overwintering rodents; a sturdy building full of food is the ideal holiday getaway. However, even though rodents are more than content to stay out of our sight, they can still do a lot of damage from the shadows. Mice and rats can pose a significant health and safety risk when they live in close contact with people.
Using professional rodent exclusion services, the Bug Out team can help keep those unwanted guests out, protecting your business’s health, safety, and reputation. Read on to learn more.
How Rats and Mice Can Harm Your Business
Rodents may be small, but the problems they can cause are anything but. Below are just a few of the dangers mice and rats could cause if left to their own devices inside your business.
- Diseases. Mice, rats, and the parasites they bring along are known to carry many diseases, like salmonellosis, rat bite fever, and hantavirus.
- Property damage. Rodents need to keep their teeth under control by chewing almost constantly – their teeth never stop growing! Since their teeth are so strong, they’ll chew whatever they can get their paws on, whether it’s drywall, wiring, furniture, or your onsite inventory.
- Reputation damage. Especially when it comes to businesses in the food service and processing industries, rodents on the premises can do a lot of damage to your reputation. News travels fast online, and anyone who has a rodent encounter at your establishment will certainly tell people.
Bug Out’s Rodent Exclusion Methods
Luckily, you don’t have to wait for a rodent infestation to start before you can take steps to deal with them. Using rodent exclusion techniques that seal and block potential entry points into your structure, you could stop rodents from invading in the first place.

Are Bug Out’s Rodent Control Methods Safe?
