PRESENTING THE MOST TRUSTED SINCE 1974

We offer comprehensive rodent control services to eliminate mice, rats, and other rodents from your home or business. Our team will identify the source of the infestation and take steps to prevent future problems.

Various medium-sized rodents with long tails are called rats. There are many other species of rats in the order Rodentia, but the genus Rattus contains the prototypical rats. Bandicota, Dipodomys, and Neotoma are some more genera of rats. Usually, size is what separates rats from mice. 

Rat infestations can be dangerous to human health because they can spread diseases including typhus, hantavirus, and the bubonic plague. Additionally, rats may have allergies. People who come into contact with their droppings, dander, or shed hair may sneeze or have other allergic symptoms. 

You should wash the wound with clean water and antibacterial soap as soon as a rat bites or scratches you, a rodent, or any other kind of animal. Hydrogen peroxide cleaning can be another option for you. After using a fresh towel to pat the wound dry, wrap it with a bandage and apply a skincare ointment like Neosporin or Aquaphor. Consult a doctor immediately.
