Five Tips On How To Avoid A Rat Problem In Hallandale Beach

It's that time of year in Hallandale Beach that we in the pest control industry call "Rodent Season."  Even in Hallandale Beach, during the last few months of the year, it gets a bit cooler than the Summer, which causes a spike in calls to our office for rodent or rat activity in someone's home!  You might say, "rats are just a part of our tropical area and there's nothing you can do."  Well then, you would be wrong.  I'm going to review the top five things a homeowner can do to keep their home rat-free.

Five tips on keeping your home rat free

Even if you don't think there is a problem, you need to do these things to your home and property today.

1. Inspect your home for any openings around the exterior of your home and seal them off.
   • Rats can squeeze their body through a half inch opening.
   • Use concrete patch to fill holes around hose bibs, A/C plumbing, dryer stacks, electrical conduits, etc.
   • Cap off vent stacks on the roof with galvanized screen 26 gauge or thicker.
   • And check around all doors, windows, and garages for openings and seal off with new weather stripping or caulking
2. Keep your landscape from being overgrown and trees and palms from touching the roof of your home.
   • Rodents like to live up in palm trees or roots of palms, as the weather gets colder, they quickly can walk across a branch onto your roof looking for a new home.
   • Keep grass and vegetation cut short.
   • Make sure there are no piles of debris around the exterior of the structure
3. Inspect your attic for any rodent activity
   • If you find droppings or smell something funny, be careful not to touch or breath in too much up there.  The air could be contaminated and can cause asthma and or hantavirus.
     • (Hantaviruses can cause potentially fatal infections. Infection occurs by breathing air that's contaminated by rodent urine and droppings.)
   • If you find this, you may need a hazmat team to sanitize your attic and insulation cleaned out and replaced.
4. Inspect your property and home for any potential food sources and remove or seal them up.
   • Do you have any fruit-bearing trees on your property?  You need to make sure there aren't any fruit laying on the ground.  Make sure to pick fruit when ripe, or else you are just supplying the rats with a fast food stop.
   • Make sure not to leave your bag of pet food on the floor, instead put in an airtight container.
   • Keep your trash in strong garbage bins so that rats or any other animal cannot have easy access to them.
