Rodents can be drawn to certain areas around your home. Let's take a closer look at the spots that could be attracting them.
Yard:
Clean up debris, sticks, and leaf piles, and keep firewood stored away from the house. Cut back shrubs and branches close to the house.
Trash cans and compost bins.
Don't overfill the containers and ensure they are sealed with a tight-fitting lid.
Air vents:
Air vents and utility entrances can offer quick entry points for rodents. Check that vent covers are installed and intact to block off entry points.
Gutters and downspouts:
Keep gutters and downspouts clear of debris that rodents can use for food and nesting material.
