Overview

• If you have a pest problem, it’s important to know when to call in the experts. Experts can help you identify the type of pest and how best to deal with it.

  This article will give you some tips on when to call in an expert for help with your pest problem:

   

  Droppings

   

  If you suspect that a pest is inside your business, you may be able to spot droppings on surfaces like countertops, tables, and floors. Droppings can also be found in the garden or backyard.

  Look under benches and chairs that don’t move often and see what you find.

  Distinctive musty smells can indicate the presence of rodent urine as well.

   

  Grease marks

   

  Grease marks are one of the most common signs of a rodent infestation. These small, dark stains are created when rodents climb up walls and then slide back down again. They're also known as grease trails or "rodent sliders," indicating that you need to call in a professional pest control company immediately!

   

  Damaged Plants

   

  Insect trails and gnawed edges of plants both inside and out are a sign you may need some help. Several pests will either hide in your plants or feed on them. Plant damage that only seems to be getting worse is a tell-tale sign it’s time to call the professionals.

   

  Eggs

   

  Eggs are never a good sign. They can be found on plants, in cracks in the wall, or in other areas where pests may have been (such as under sinks).

  If you do find eggs it is important to act quickly! Do not wait until you see signs of an adult pest because if left untreated, they will hatch into adults which will multiply rapidly and cause even more damage to your business. Find pest control solutions in Sacramento right away!

   

  Flickering Lights

   

  Rodents are notorious for chewing completely or partially through wires in the walls. Not only is it irritating to come into work and find your lights are on the fritz but it’s also a considerable fire hazard!

  Second, the rodent probably didn’t survive that gnawing session and you now have a dead animal hiding in your walls somewhere…

   

  Unusual Noises

   

  You may have heard that pests are drawn to noise, but did you know that they can also make noises of their own? These noises might be the tell-tale signs of a pest problem.

  Especially after everyone else has left, soft scratching or chewing noises should immediately set off alarm bells. Rodents are notorious for knowing when it’s safe to emerge.

   

  Conclusion

   

  If you see one or more of these signs, it’s time to call in the experts. They can help identify the source of the problem and make sure it doesn’t happen again!
