Rat Infestation Reason First – Rat Repellent Later

Rats, mice and rodents can become uninvited visitors first, and a permanent guest in your home next. Yes, they can accidentally come into your place or can come in search of food. When your home has all that they need, your walls will get nibbled by them and they make a home in your home sooner. Here is a list of what can attract the mouse to become a permanent resident at your space.

  • Leftover food in the kitchen – Rats are scavengers and are omnivorous. They can eat what you eat and love any food that is leftover in your kitchen. Right from table scraps to the unattended plates in the sink, rats can get attracted to these and can be a part of your home.
  • Unattended garbage bins – Your garbage bins may have paper, dirt, food scraps and all the waste material and the staunch of this when unattended makes rodents and other pests enter your home easily. You need to be very cautious on this and empty your bins every single day.
  • Improper sanitation – Rats are great swimmers and can enter your homes swimming through the sanitary pipes. When you have an improper sanitation, they can make way through the chambers and
  • Damaged walls – Rats can dig holes in the walls of your home, but if you already have damaged walls, it makes their task easier. Damaged walls and cabinets can be warm places for the rats to live in.

Sometimes, the rat just enters even when you keep your home clean, and all you need to do is to get the best rat repellent for home. Here is your checklist before buying the repellent.

What should you ask yourself before choosing a Rodent Repellent?

  1. What is your need?

The first question you need to ask yourself is your need. You would have definitely seen the rat running away from you when you suddenly turn on the light at your home. You need to get a rodent repellent based on how big the rodent or how small the mice is.

  1. Where in the home are you going to use it?

Rats can begin their infestation in any part of your home. It can be the kitchen, bathroom, or even the store. Choosing the rodent repellent based on the space at your home kees you safe from these pests and the pest repellents. If the infestation is in the store room, you can use a long lasting repellent and if it is in the kitchen, you need to choose a non-toxic natural mice repellent for inside.

  1. Who are at home?

Before you plan of buying any rodent repellent, understand how people at your home may react to it. You may be having a pet at home that would get affected by the rodent repellent. It is also not safe to use certain pest repellents when you have toddlers, infants, expecting mothers and old people in the house.In such cases, you need to double check therepellents before using them even if they are natural mice repellents.

  1. What is the composition of the rodent repellent?

A thorough check on the ingredient label of the rodent repellent you are buying is very important. Even if you are choosing a natural mice repellent, you may have some of your family members allergic to the natural ingredients used in the spray. If you have kids and pets at home, say a clear NO to toxic rodent repellents and choose all natural mice repellents.

  1. Does it kill a rat or repel a rat?

Rodent control sprays or any such products come in two types – it can either kill the rats and mice or repel them. If you are planning to get a rodent killer spray, say no to it and choose a rodent repellent spray. The killers will kill the rodents and you can possibly have another infestation at your home soon. The repellents make sure that the rats stay out of your home for the longest time and do not trouble you.

  1. How effective is it?

The last question that you need to ask yourself is how effective the rodent repellent spray you are going to invest on is. For this, you can check the user testimonials and reviews of the product and also have a check on the ingredients. There is a myth that natural mice repellents do not work well. Nature is the best giver and the repellents having a natural composition is effective and safer than the chemical ones.

These are some important key points that you need to review before getting a rodent control spray home. Always remember that you are buying the rodent repellent to repel rats and not harm your loved ones.
