As cooler weather arrives, rodents begin looking for warm places to nest, making barns, sheds and homes attractive hiding spots. Left unchecked, they can cause significant damage to wiring, insulation and stored feed. Fall is an ideal time to implement preventative measures, and a professional integrated pest management program can help keep your property protected.
