Rodent Control
Rodents are a serious problem for many households. As cold, winter months approach, mice try to enter your home through every possible nook and cranny, and very few houses are completely impenetrable to mice and other small rodents. And, depending on where you live, rats can be an even more serious problem.
Fortunately, no matter what kind of rodents are nesting in your home, there is always a way to prevent them from staying for too long. Here are some of the most popular and effective forms of rodent control.
Mousetraps
As the time-honored way to catch tricky rodents, mousetraps are easy to set up and are fairly effective at reducing your mouse problem. However, mousetraps do have their limitations. You need to know the general area of your house in which the mice have nested, or be prepared to set up plenty of traps all over your home. You also need to choose the right bait (peanut butter and Goldfish Crackers work well), and be prepared to clean out some messy traps.
Fortunately, mouse traps come in all shapes and sizes, and some methods are more humane than others. There are live traps, which simply lure the mouse into an enclosure before trapping it in, allowing you to release it far away from your home. There are also traps that allow you to easily kill the mouse inside the trap without having to actually touch the rodent at all.
Rat traps
Rats can be a more serious problem in your home. Big, hungry, and filled with infectious diseases, rats pose all sorts of risks for you and your family. Rat traps are similar to mousetraps, but are much larger. In fact, some rat traps are simply large cages that rats cannot escape from. And, as with mousetraps, placement is key.
Rat traps suffer from the same shortcomings that mousetraps have. Even a small rat problem (2-3 rats) could require more than a dozen traps set up around your home. And, if you don’t know the general area in which the rats are nesting, then you may need to buy twice that amount. Cleaning rat traps can be messy, and wild rats can be dangerous when cornered.
By far the biggest problem with rat traps is that rats are extremely clever and intelligent critters. Once they’ve seen another rat caught in a trap, they will learn to avoid them. As a result, using traditional methods against rats involves a lot of frustrating attempts and constantly changing tactics. In many cases, rats become simply too wise to fall for traps at all.
Poisons and chemicals
Another popular way to kill rodents of all sizes is to use various poisons and chemicals. These are very easy to set up, as you simply need to place chunks of poison around your home. Then, wait for the poison to disappear, or show teeth marks.
Of course, there are a number of serious problems when using chemicals and poison. First, it is not a very good solution if you have kids or pets in your home, as the poison should be placed in easy to reach areas. And, once rodents eat the poison, they may take some time to die. Finding the corpse could be difficult, or even impossible, and you may never actually know if you have killed the rodent until you smell something strange coming from in between your walls. As before, rats also can learn to avoid poisons once they have experience with another rat being poisoned by one.

By far the best solution to your rodent control problem is to use an ultrasonic device to humanely repel rodents away from your home. Products like Pest Repeller Ultimate AT launch a multi-pronged attack on any rodents in your home, sending them scurrying away as quickly as possible. And, best of all, these ultrasonic waves continue to defend your home after any rodents have been repelled, ensuring that your home will be rodent free for as long as possible.
Since it works by making your home unappealing to rodents, pest repellers also do not have the problems traps, poisons and other rodent control products have of rats becoming too wise to be caught or killed with them. If you have an ultrasonic pest repeller, rats will no longer want to occupy your home and will do elsewhere.
