Unipest Pest Control in Santa Clarita can help you with identifying what kinds of pests and animals are living within your home.
Rodents can be very difficult to tell apart. Unipest Pest Control can figure out if the rodent is a rat or a mouse based on the feces they leave behind.
It is well known that rodents can be messy and leave feces behind everywhere. They are very dirty animals that can spread infection and bacteria. It is important to identify what kind of rodent infestation you have so it can be properly taken care of.
Rats and mice are very different. Since their biology is distinctly different, their treatment methods are too. Mice are clearly smaller than rats. Mice love to explore things and are really curious in nature. Since mice are much smaller, you should be using much smaller traps and scented blue boards because you want to attract them through the smell. Since mice are very curious, they should immediately be attracted to the smell.
Rats are neophobic. This means that they dislike anything new or unfamiliar. They are not as curious as mice are. When treating rats, you should be using larger unscented blue boards.

If they are scented, rats will specifically avoid it. These unscented blue boards should be placed in the pathways they walk on repeatedly. This will cause them to trip on them.
These are clearly two completely different rodents with distinct motives. It is essential to find out if you have rats or mice so you can treat the infestation effectively. To check this, you must inspect the feces they leave behind. Mouse droppings are about as small as rice and have pointed ends. Mice poop multiple times an hour so there should be a lot of poop in one area. Rats have much larger poop, are bigger than rice and have rounded ends.
