Why Do You Need Orkin’s Rodent Control Services?

Rats and mice not only contaminate food and spread diseases, but also gnaw through walls and electrical wiring, making them among the most destructive of all pests that can invade your business. Your Orkin Commercial Pest Specialist will address the problem at every level, from perimeter areas and entry points to nesting sites and beyond.

Rodents have the potential to:

• Spread diseases. Rodents and their parasites spread many dreaded diseases like plague, typhus, rat-bite fever and acute food poisoning.
• Contaminate food. Bacteria-infested urine and fecal droppings do more than just spoil food; they can become a nesting place for microscopic tapeworm eggs.
• Damage property and cost you money. Should a customer see a rodent, it could hurt your reputation and impact your business. And with the ability to chew through walls and wiring, rats and mice can even trigger electrical fires in your building – potentially resulting in thousands of dollars in structural damage.
• Breed rapidly. One pair of mice can produce 200 offspring in four months.

One pair of mice can produce 200 offspring in just four months if left to their own means.

Help stop rodents from gnawing through your profits.

With an uncanny ability to chew through walls and electrical wiring, rodents are one of the most destructive pests that can invade your business. But there’s no hiding from The Orkin Man™, because our Commercial Pest Specialists can smell a rat a mile away.
