Frequently Asked Questions
How do rodents get inside?
Mice can enter through openings as small as a dime. Common entry points include gaps around pipes, vents, and utility lines; cracks in the foundation; gaps under doors; and openings around windows and roof lines.
Can rodents damage wiring?
Yes. Rodents gnaw continuously to wear down their incisors. They chew on electrical wiring, insulation, pipes, and structural wood, which can create fire hazards and costly damage.
