RATS and MICE
These are destructive rodents and can squeeze through a hole the size of a dime as they have no bone structure; only soft sponge like cartilage.
Rats can find their way into your attic, crawl space, and in between the walls with ease. According to the Center for Disease Control, rat droppings and urine left behind can contribute to and cause allergies, asthma, bacterial disease, hantavirus, typhus, and a myriad of other issues. They can also carry fleas and mites and other parasites. Rats can reach sexual maturity at only five weeks. A female rat is in heat every four to five days and she will produce six to thirteen rats per litter. They can chew on electrical wiring and cause fires as well.
MOST, IF NOT ALL HOMES HAVE RATS AND MICE!
Rats and Mice will gain access into your home by entering through
- Eaves / Overlaps
- Roof Vents
- Flashings
- Eave Vents
- Foundation Vents
- Crawl Access Doors
- Plumbing
- Electrical Boxes
- Cable Wiring
- Air Conditioning Lines
- Attic Cleanup and Decontamination
- Reinsulation
- Any or ALL service leading from the outside to the inside of your home
These rodents are also prolific swimmers and climbers. Rodents can climb a stucco wall or any surface with texture in the blink of an eye. They will also leap from other structures and overgrown tree limbs. they can even enter through the sewer lines and come up through your toilet! ( I have seen it!) They will also bite, gnaw, chew and scratch leaving behind dark greasy “rub marks” until they make their way inside your home thus making elimination a must. Let Zenith make your structure rodent tight by means of structural exclusion. We seal all ports of access leading from the exterior into the interior of your home. We use concrete, mortar, steel mesh hardware cloth roofing cement and any or all materials necessary for whatever particular application may occur. This also includes custom fabrication of new, missing or broken crawl access doors, vent screens etc. as needed.
We also provide full attic clean up and decontamination services. Additionally we remove all contaminated insulation as necessary. We then reinsulate your attic with a state of the art recycled cellulose material which is inpregnated with a natural borate product that provides insect prevention qualities. This material has the highest “R Factor”rating in existence. It is called Themal Acoustical Insulation or TAP. To find out more about this product, click on T.A.P. Services.
