This summer, Toronto experienced quite a rat problem! Reports of rodents had steadily increased over the years and they continue to thrive in the city. Due to the constant construction sites, various climate changes and other factors, Toronto has become the perfect home for rats. Metro News reported “A string of warm winters has created favourable conditions for reproduction. Construction sites across the city provide rats with an ideal habitat. Sloppy garbage-disposal habits mean there’s no shortage of food.” The concern is that there is no control strategy in the city. So how can homeowners protect themselves from a rat infestation?
Here are a few tips from your professional terminator experts, Advantage Pest Control:
- Clean up any food or water laying around your home
- Keep all food containers and garbages tightly closed
- Keep any garbage outside in metal bins (they are more difficult to penetrate).
- Seal any holes or openings outside of your home, especially near the garage, backyard etc.
