What Attracts Rodents To Your House? 

 

Rodents are a common problem for many homeowners. These pests can cause damage to your home, spread diseases, and contaminate food. So you may be wondering, what attracts rodents to your house in the first place? Let’s take a look at some common factors that attract rodents and how you can prevent them from getting into your home.

Food Sources 

The number one thing that attracts rodents is food sources. This includes any kind of food that is left out in the open or not stored properly. Anything from pet food, human food, and vegetable waste can be an attractive source of food for rodents.

To help prevent this problem, store all food items away in airtight containers or zip-lock bags and make sure there is no access to pet food overnight. 

 

Habitats 

Rodents need a place to live and hide away from predators or people. This could include anywhere within your home where they can find shelters such as crevices in walls, cracks in floors, or even inside furniture or appliances.

The best way to prevent this is by sealing up any entry points with steel wool or caulk and inspecting your home regularly for signs of rodent activity.  

 

Water Sources 

Rodents also need water sources and will often come looking for them inside your home if they cannot find them outside. Common water sources include leaky pipes, bathtubs, sinks, and toilets – so make sure these areas are well maintained and repaired as soon as possible if any issues arise.

Additionally, make sure to check outdoor areas around your property for standing water or other sources of moisture since this could be an attractive habitat for rodents too.
