Place products and traps where rodents travel.
To identify the location where the rodents operate out of and also what kind of rodent you are dealing with, either a rat or a mouse, you will need to perform a thorough inspection of the entire house. Anywhere that has droppings from the rodents, bite marks or materials of a nest, should be rigged with traps. You can use glue traps to identify where the rodents travel frequently. Ensure children or pets can not access the products which are employed in the control of these rodents. You should also consider setting traps in ceilings and on pipes since rodents can climb to higher ground.
When placing traps and baits, ensure you put as much as you can. Rodents usually reproduce rapidly. What this means is that if you don’t take the opportunity to do the job properly, you may need to perform the extermination over again and you have lost ground. Rats and mice are one of the leading causes of death not related to heart disease and cancer.
Ensure the bait is always fresh to attract the rodents. Replace any bait that has become dry and set the traps over and over until you are sure you have eliminated every one of them. You should also place the traps in different locations to make sure you get positive results.

Get rid of the rodents' food, water, and home nest wherever possible.
Another way to perform mice and rat removal in the home is to taking steps to prevent them from gaining entry and attracting them to your home. Ensure food around the home is properly stored using containers and cupboards. You should also try to seal off any point through which rodents (or rodents like raccoons too), can enter into the home. By causing inconveniences in various forms, they will abandon the environment as a result of the stress and hunger and leave to find another habitable location. This can effectively eliminate the presence of rodents in the home.
