Crawl Space Repair - Crawl Space Nasties - Rodents

Tuesday, July 25th, 2017 by Sophie Rice

If you have one mouse in your home then it's not unlikely that you have a lot more - in a single year one mouse can have up to 60 offspring, which themselves will reproduce in as little as 6 weeks.

There are many ways to exterminate rodents and pests, for example poison or trapping. This can then cause problems if they die in hard to reach areas - the smell of the decaying body is now going to enter directly into your home! The stages of decomposition will last approximately 2 weeks, although high humidity will cause the process to be slower due to lack of oxygen.

The best solution is to prevent your home from being a place they can live comfortably - finding and sealing access points and removing food sources.
