Rodents CONTROL
One of the most dangerous aspects about rat is that it feeds on our food, including ours! In the course they contaminate our food with urine and faeces. This is one of the most potent ways to transmit diseases such as leptospirosis. Rats and infections spread by them are the major construers of infamous diseases of Black Plague that caused millions of deaths in England and Europe. Rats also carry fleas and mites on their body which are also very capable of transmitting diseases and infection on human body with just one bite. Rats also bite humans which again can be a major cause of infections and diseases
How to Control
- It is necessary to keep all the food stuff away from the reach of rats. Store the food in air tight and strong containers. Don�t use plastic for storage since rats are able to gnaw through plastics.
- Keep your household free from food wastes and spillage. Dispose them in a tied plastic bag. Place the bags inside tightly covered strong bins. Don�t simply throw away wastes in plastic bags because it won�t be very difficult for rats to eat through the plastic bags.
- Block all the possible entry points with wire mesh in your household to prevent rats from entering the house.Wire mesh can also be placed around pipes to stop rats from climbing up or down into houses.
- Add insecticide granules to water in plant bowls and plates beneath pots to kill the larvae. These granules last 1-3 months.
- Rat infestation needs to be dealt with professional assistance. Call for Orion Pest Control.
