The Dangers of a Rodent Infestation
While mice may appear cute and cuddly when locked in a cage, or seen in the wild, photo-right,
as pests, they pose a severe danger to your home which can range from mild structural damage, to serious
illnesses. In their constant forage for food, mice will gnaw through everything,
leaving tell tale circular holes in bags, boxes, and any other food container.
The stench of their urine and droppings can rapidly ruin your home, and rodents are capable of transmitting serious diseases. These potential diseases include:
Riketsial Pox - transmitted from mites on rodents,
Food Poisoning - Salmonella transmitted when food comes in contact with the urine, saliva or feces of the rodent
Leptospirosis - a potentially fata respiratory disease transmitted by rodent urine
Tapeworm and Trichonsis - two potentially dangerous parasites
Hantavirus - (seen in Maryland) - A serious and potentially fatal disease is spread through inhalation of dust that contains urine, saliva, or droppings
Rat Bite Fever - transmitted by the bite of a rat
Plague - remerging disease spread by fleas carried on rodents
