Many domestic households are currently having problems with rodents!

Across the UK, particularly in the North there has been a drastic change in the weather. Due to the colder temperature and rising river levels we have noticed a steep increase in the amount of domestic rodent issues affecting our rural towns and villages including Harrogate, Wetherby, Boroughbridge and surrounding areas. Rats and mice can prove to be stressful and for most people, need to be dealt with immediately even more so in the run up to Christmas.

DIY pest control can be successful if carried out correctly however ensure rodenticides are used with caution. Always follow the instructions on the label and if you are unsure call a professional, even if it is just for advice.

The palatability of poisons are one of the differences between over the counter rodenticides and the ones professionals use. Rodents are notoriously picky eaters and will take preference in what they eat. One thing to help prevent rodents being attracted to your property is to ensure waste food is tightly sealed in bin bags and kept in a closed lidded bin.

By using AgriPest Management we instinctively know what the rodents require, where they move and how they exploit the domestic household environment. You also get the added benefit of quick results and peace of mind for your home at often the same price you will pay for your own rodent DIY products.
