Can a professional exterminator effectively eradicate mice / rats?
)
November 1st, 2019
My parents lived almost 45 years in a house without a mouse / rat problem, except for a brief trapping of about 15 mice some 30 years ago.
About five years ago, we started having occasional problems with various waves of mice or rats, but they were effectively eradicated with traps or poison.
Recently, another type of mice have started invading, and these are less afraid of people. They have no fear of venturing out in full daylight while people are active. I have actually intentionally stepped on one, and my mother, out of sheer random luck, set a heavy fan on one accidentally.
My parents are very old, with health and mobility issues, and I spend about ⅓ to half of my available time with them. I am afraid of them being attacked or bitten.
I am afraid this problem is about to get much worse if not nipped in the bud.
As I mentioned, two have been killed manually. But these don’t seem easily allured by traps. My mother is allergic to cats and neither can take in a pet. I am just wanting to deal with the problem as quickly and effectively as possible.
What works?
