Winter in Massachusetts is traditionally the most active time for rodents. Similar to people, they want to escape the blistering cold and seek refuge inside.
The ways in which mice find entry points into our homes can be maddening. Despite the best efforts of homeowners, mice have an incredible ability to find their way inside. Once there, all it takes is a male and a female to rapidly reproduce and cause a severe infestation.
So what can you do to stop mice from taking over your home? Winter rodent protection for your Massachusetts home is a good start.
At Burgess Pest Management, we always begin by inspecting for the most likely entry points along your foundation, as well as in your garage, and other common areas. Our goal is to immediately reduce the rodent population by installing a perimeter rodent defense baiting system, but also to seal up those vulnerabilities so you don't have to repeat this process. We install exclusionary devices wherever needed, to block more rodents from gaining entry. On the inside, we use a combination of fast-catch devices and a tamper-resistant baiting system to quickly reduce the population.
Our Massachusetts pest management professionals follow up as many times as needed, until we feel confident that the rodent infestation has been solved. Although we can't predict the weather this winter, we do know that mice are already active in getting inside this season. The best advice is not to wait until it's too late. We offer free inspections for Massachusetts rodent control, so don't hesitate to reach out and ask some questions.
