Keep Rodents Out in Jacksonville’s Rainy Season

‍

Jacksonville’s rainy season can drive rodents indoors as they seek shelter from the wet conditions. These unwelcome guests can cause significant damage to your property and pose health risks. Here are some effective strategies to keep rodents out of your home during the rainy season.

‍

Seal Entry Points

‍

Rodents can squeeze through tiny openings. Inspect your home for gaps around windows, doors, and the foundation. Seal any cracks and install weather stripping to keep rodents out.

‍

Maintain Cleanliness

‍

Rodents are attracted to food and clutter. Keep your home clean and store food in sealed containers. Regularly dispose of garbage and reduce clutter to eliminate hiding spots.

‍

Eliminate Moisture Sources

‍

Standing water and leaks attract rodents. Fix any leaks in your home and ensure proper drainage around your property. Use dehumidifiers in damp areas to reduce moisture levels.

‍

Use Traps and Baits

‍

Set up traps and baits in areas where you’ve noticed rodent activity. Place them along walls and in dark corners where rodents are likely to travel. Check and reset the traps regularly.
