Mice and rats in the garden can damage crops, roots and stored supplies and may eventually move closer to the home. A tidy environment, limiting food sources and properly protecting garden buildings help reduce the risk of their presence.

Urban environments offer rats numerous opportunities to survive and reproduce. Their presence can cause damage, contamination and hygiene risks, so prevention and effective control are essential for long-term management.

Basements and pantries are attractive to mice and rats mainly because they provide food, shelter and favourable hiding conditions. Their presence can quickly threaten stored winter food and other supplies, so it is important to know how to reduce the risk of an infestation and how to act effectively once rodents settle in the area.

Mice and rats in the house can threaten food supplies, damage equipment and cause hygiene problems. Long-term protection of the home depends on preventing access, removing sources of food and water and applying appropriate control measures.

Mice in the home can damage food, packaging and other materials and cause hygiene problems. Mechanical traps are a practical rodenticide-free solution, particularly when the problem is detected early and only a small number of rodents are present.
