If you don’t have rodents in your house, that’s good news! However, to keep it as it is, you must apply the following tips to prevent pests from appearing on your property. They might also be useful to help you contain the invitation and stop it before it becomes too big to handle.

• Keep the Place Clean – good hygiene is one of the best ways to prevent rodents from coming into your place. Keep your food in sealed containers, maintain your kitchen tidy, and ensure the areas around your garbage bins are kept clean. It is a good idea to put away your pet’s food overnight and to clean all the grills where there might be some food accumulated. The idea is that if you don’t offer food to rodents, and if they don’t find any sources of food inside your property, they won’t choose to stay.
• Seal All The Holes in Your House – another good idea to avoid mice and rats entering your house would be to seal all holes in your walls, doors, vents, or other spaces around the kitchen or closets.
• Monitor Your House – to prevent having to deal with an infestation, you should monitor your house. If you suspect the presence of rodents, look for any possible source of food, find out their pathways and nests. If you find signs of rats or mice, contact a professional pest control company.
• Place traps – if there are rodents in your house, you must take immediate action to eliminate. Setting traps around is an effective method to reduce their numbers. However, if the infestation is too big, you must call a specialist.

You might even decide to make use of rodent deterrent solutions, but keep in mind that not all of them will be effective. Some examples include:

• Moth Balls- effective with mice, this solution is toxic for children and pets, which is why you must handle it with care.
• Ammonia –the substance is effective in keeping rodents away as it mimics the smell of their predators’ urine. Keep in mind that it is toxic to pets and children and might leave a bad smell in your house.
• Peppermint Oil – this one is the safest method of all, it doesn’t leave any unpleasant smell and is easy to apply: all you have to do is to soak cotton balls into peppermint oil and place them around the house. You might have to repeat the process quite often since the smell will fade away quickly.
