Protecting your business from pests is a concern that every business owner has to deal with during cold weather. Rodents like to overwinter indoors where it’s warm and food is easily found, and that means they can put human health and safety at risk – not to mention your property and company reputation.

Luckily, the rodent exclusion professionals at Terminix Anderson have you covered when it comes to keeping mice, rats, and voles out of your commercial premises. In this guide, we’ll discuss what Terminix Anderson can do to help you!

How Rodents Harm Your Business

For businesses of all shapes and sizes, keeping rodents out is vital. Below are just a few reasons to hire professionals to ensure these critters keep their noses out of your business:

  • Disease prevention: Rodents (and the bugs they bring with them) are known to carry many diseases that can easily transfer to humans, such as Rat Bite Fever. Keeping them out prevents you, your employees, and your customers from getting sick.
  • Prevention of property damage: Rodents have to chew something almost constantly to keep their ever-growing teeth in check. That means they’ll gnaw whatever they can get their hands on – be it your furniture, wiring, insulation, or any onsite inventory you have. Don’t pay to replace it; instead, hire a professional for rodent exclusion.
  • Protecting your reputation: If you’re meeting with a client and a mouse runs past their feet, they certainly won’t be happy. They’ll probably let other people know, too, and before you know it, rumors about your rodent infestation will be everywhere you look. Naturally, this is especially important for anyone in the food service industry.

Terminix Anderson’s Rodent Exclusion Methods

As a business owner, you have enough to worry about. Make your rodent-related worries a thing of the past with our comprehensive rodent exclusion process! The following steps will be tailored to suit your business’s specific needs.

    1. Initial inspection. First of all, our technicians will inspect your property and identify any potential pest entry points – as well as signs of existing rodent infestations.
    2. Exclusion repairs. After your inspection is complete and we’ve determined the best course of action, we’ll start repairing and sealing gaps in your structure to stop mice, rats, or voles from getting in.
      • These vulnerabilities can be tiny – rodents can squeeze through holes as small as a dime. As long as they can get their jaws in there, they can make entrances bigger with ease.
    3. Trapping. For pests that are too large to deal with in other ways, we can offer humane trapping and removal.
    4. Ongoing follow-up prevention. We offer follow-up services. After your initial service, our technicians will come back at regular intervals for follow-up applications if needed.

Are Terminix Anderson’s Rodent Control Methods Safe?

Because the safety of your employees and clients is our top priority, we use natural pest bait wherever possible, and always try mechanical exclusion before resorting to pesticides. If exclusion alone isn’t enough to stop your pest problem, we follow all safety guidelines and train our staff to minimize the danger posed to people, plants, and animals.
