Mice & Rat Removal in Lindsay, Peterborough & Orillia
Home and Cottage Pest Control offers rodent control programs which consist of the three Rs:
This begins with inspections to eliminate possible food sources in and around the home, and determine shelter areas for rodents, and travel and entry routes.
Eliminating the Reason:
Eliminating the reason, or reducing food sources such as bird feeders, garbage, pet food, compost, improperly stored food etc., stresses the rodent population and limits breeding.
Eliminating the Routes:
Eliminate travel ways and hiding areas around a home by removing lumber, woodpiles, clutter and debris etc., and inspecting the exterior for openings and weak spots where mice may gain access within a structure.
Eliminate the Rodent:
Placing snap traps, tin cats, or ketch‐all multi-catch mouse traps are the most common and safest ways to eliminate rodents in a building, if used properly. They should never be placed where animals or children may come in contact with them. Rodenticide in tamper-resistant lockable bait stations to keep bait away from children, livestock, pets and other animals is the most effective way of eliminating rodents in a structure.
