Pests We Treat - Pest Control in Allenwood, NJ

Recently, I had serviced one of my commercial accounts, a senior living community in Allenwood, NJ, for a troublesome mouse infestation. With any rodent problem, we always return for follow-up visits so that we can re-inspect the premises, perform additional treatments, and replenish the bait in the bait stations as needed. The amount of bait consumed between service calls is a reliable indicator of the level of infestation. Our objective is to see a continual reduction in consumed bait between visits, eventually down to zero. The freshest bait is most effective and we always replace any bait that has been degraded by dirt, dust, moisture, is insect-ridden, or is just moldy and rancid.

As I was inspecting the rodent bait stations placed along the exterior perimeter of the building, I came across one station that was currently occupied by a small mouse feeding on one of the bait blocks! I left this mouse alone to let the bait “do its thing,” and continued to replenish the bait in the other stations placed around the building. 

We also periodically change the type of bait to a different type since different rodents are attracted to different bait formulations. This helps us handle the infestation as efficiently as possible. It was evident from this follow-up visit that significant headway was already made in eradicating these rodents. It won’t take too much longer for this property to be rodent-free!
