It’s 2 a.m. You were sleeping soundly, but you’ve been awakened by a strange, squeaky sound, followed by what sounds like a brush being run across the ceiling, then tiny feet running. You lay still hoping it’s your imagination. However, you soon realize: your home has been invaded by uninvited animals.
With the change of seasons, cool weather is returning, and homeowners aren’t the only ones looking to keep warm indoors. In fact, many homeowners may start to notice they have unwanted houseguests – rodents – as they, too, seek shelter from the elements. To promote public vigilance against rodents and the hazards they pose, the National Pest Management Association (NPMA) has declared October 23-29 to be Rodent Awareness Week. The Bug Man, Inc. is joining NPMA in this important effort by educating homeowners on the threat of rodents and how they can lessen their chances of an infestation.
