Rodents Multiply Fast — Act Before They Spread

Understanding the risks helps you protect your family and property. Here's why immediate action matters.

Health Risks

Rodents spread bacteria through droppings, contaminating food and surfaces with harmful pathogens.

Property Damage

Chewing through electrical wires can cause fires and costly repairs to your home's infrastructure.

Rapid Breeding

A single pair of mice can produce 60+ offspring in just 3 months if left unchecked.

Structural Issues

Rodents gnaw through insulation, drywall, and wood, compromising your home's integrity.

Common Entry Points in Toronto Homes

Rodents can squeeze through openings as small as a dime. Our technicians identify and seal every vulnerable point to prevent future infestations.

  • Foundation cracks & gaps
  • Unsealed vents & chimneys
  • Garage door gaps
  • Utility line openings
  • Roof eaves & soffits
  • Basement windows
