Health Risks Posed by Rodents


  • Disease Transmission: Rodents can carry and transmit a wide array of diseases through their droppings, urine, saliva, and bites. Pathogens they can spread include Hantavirus, Salmonella, and Leptospirosis.
  • Contamination: A single mouse can leave behind dozens of droppings per day. They contaminate food supplies, kitchen counters, and other surfaces as they travel through your home, posing a significant health risk.
  • Parasites: Rodents are often infested with fleas and ticks, which they can introduce into your Manhattan, NY home, creating a secondary pest problem and another vector for disease.

Property Damage Risks


  • Chewing and Gnawing: Rodents have incisors that constantly grow, compelling them to gnaw on hard surfaces to keep them filed down. They are notorious for chewing through electrical wiring, which creates a serious fire hazard.
  • Damage to Insulation and Structures: They will shred insulation, vapor barriers, and paper products in attics and crawl spaces to build their nests. They can also gnaw through drywall, wood, and plastic pipes.
