Why Rodents Move Indoors
-
Temperature Drop – Colder nights push rodents to seek warmth inside homes and businesses.
-
Food Availability – Pantries, kitchens, and pet food bins attract mice and rats.
-
Nesting Areas – Insulation, storage boxes, and wall voids create safe, hidden nesting sites.
Rodents don’t just settle quietly. They chew wires, gnaw wood, contaminate food, and spread diseases such as hantavirus, salmonella, and leptospirosis. A small infestation can quickly escalate—mice reproduce every 21 days, and rats produce multiple litters each year.
As the weather cools across New Jersey, rodents like mice and rats begin searching for warm shelter and reliable food sources. Unfortunately, attics, basements, crawl spaces, and kitchens provide the perfect environment for them to nest, reproduce, and thrive.
Local Rodent Problems in New Jersey
Monmouth County Rodent Control
From Long Branch to Freehold, homeowners in Monmouth County often see increased rodent activity as temperatures drop. The county’s mix of suburban neighborhoods and coastal towns creates ideal conditions for rodents to thrive.
Ocean County Rodent Control
Rodents are a persistent problem in Toms River, Brick, and Ocean Gate, where waterfront properties and wooded areas give mice and rats easy access to homes.
Camden County Rodent Control
Urban and suburban communities like Cherry Hill, Camden, and Gloucester Township are hotspots for rodent infestations. Dense housing provides plenty of entry points for rats and mice looking for food and shelter.
