Rats or Mice Invading Your Home? Rapid Rodent Pest Control to the Rescue
According to Science Advances, cold weather slows down rat reproduction—but, nowadays, climate change is causing today’s temperatures to rise. As urban areas get more dense, more opportunities exist for rats to forage. Put these two factors together (increasing temperatures and urban densities), and you’ve got the “perfect storm for rat populations to explode.”
At Modern Pest Services, we recognize the urgency of getting rats and mice out of people’s homes, so that’s how our exterminators in Manchester respond: promptly with a sense of urgency to provide safe and effective service.

Professional Rodent Pest Removal in Manchester, NH
Wherever a few mice or rats gather, plenty more may be lurking nearby. Plus, population members can reproduce rapidly, causing a relatively small group to become a true infestation. So, if you see rodents in your home, don’t delay. When you reach out for help, online or by calling (800) 323-7378, we’ll provide a free inspection and a customized rodent pest removal plan.
Our rodent exterminators will leverage today’s modern techniques, including the latest bait, traps, and other strategies, to solve the current infestation. We’ll also proactively identify entry points and otherwise protect your home to keep rodents out going forward.
Dangers Posed By Rodents
From disease to home damage to food contamination, rodents wreak plenty of havoc when they share space with people and pets. A rodent problem can quickly escalate, creating a variety of serious issues for your home and family. These pests can carry diseases like hantavirus and salmonella, which are easily spread through their droppings, urine, and nesting materials. Beyond the health risks, rodents are notorious for chewing on electrical wires, which can lead to fire hazards and costly damage. They also contaminate food and surfaces, leaving behind bacteria and pathogens that put your family’s health at risk.
Disease
The CDC lists dozens of diseases (bacterial, viral, and parasitic) spread either directly or indirectly from rodents to humans. Disease transmission can occur through rodent bites, or by coming in contact with critters’ feces, urine, saliva, or fur, with disease examples including rabies, rat bite fever, and hantavirus. Indirectly, rodents spread diseases through ticks, fleas, and other pests that bite them before biting a person.
Food Contamination
If food is anywhere to be found, rats and mice will cleverly find it, even if it means ripping apart food packaging. When they locate food in your Manchester home (and they define “food” pretty broadly), after eating the food, they’ll leave urine and droppings behind. Then, as the U.S. Food and Drug Administration warns, “Food products that have been exposed to filth, like rats, mice and other rodents, can make you or your family members sick. This includes food and drinks for people as well as food for animals, like pet food, bird seed or fish flakes.”
Home Damage
Rats continually chew to keep their teeth sharply shaped, including to gnaw through a home’s wood, plaster, plastic, soft metals, and more. Besides the destruction this causes, chewing through wires can trigger a fire. Significant gnawing on wooden support beams can cause serious structural damage while burrowing in your home’s foundation can create big problems. And that’s not all! Rats form holes in walls and ceilings. In your attic, they shred insulation, reducing your energy efficiency. Their activities also boost mold potential and so much more.
Education
We empower you with knowledge. Our technicians clearly explain the “why” behind your specific rodent problem—from rodent behavior to the unique conditions on your property that attract them—helping you confidently maintain a lasting, rodent-free environment.

Rodent Infestation Signs
Maybe you’ll see a rat or mouse—and maybe you won’t. If you do, then the infestation may already be large. Early warning signs include droppings in the home: along baseboards, in boxes, and where food is stored or prepared. You might spot gnaw marks on wood or other materials in your home, on food packaging, and so forth. Rustling sounds might occur, especially at night, coming from your attic and/or wall voids.
Common Rodent Species
The most common rat species is the Norway Rat, a critter that burrows beneath buildings and in trash, constantly on the hunt for water. If you spot one, the creature will likely be a heavyset reddish brown with a lengthy tail (perhaps as long as its body). Fully grown, a Norway Rat can weigh a pound. This species reproduces quickly with just one female often giving birth seven times annually with eight to twelve offspring each time.
The much smaller house mouse weighs about half an ounce as an adult with gray or brown fur and a long tail. Although mice don’t have the ewww factor that rats can provide, the house mouse can easily slip into homes via cracks and crevices of just a quarter of an inch. Once settled in, one female can add about eight litters annually to the population with about six babies each time.
Manchester Rodent Control FAQs
What are common signs of a rodent infestation?
Early signs don’t typically include seeing the rats and mice. So, if you do, the infestation may already be large and established. What you’re likely to spot first would include:
- Rodent droppings in cupboards and other food storage places, in drawers, and under sinks and appliances.
- Dark baseboard smears after the rodents passed by; these may also appear on the wall bottoms.
- Shredded paper, cardboard, and fabric are used in nests; you may also notice dried, shredded plant material.
- Gnaw marks on food packaging
You may also notice stale, unexplained odors or hear scratching and scurrying sounds, especially at night. If you’ve seen or heard any of these signs, there is a good chance rodents are already in your home. As soon as you suspect a problem, contact us through our online form or call 1-800-323-7378 to learn more about our rodent control services in Manchester.
