One of the best way to check their trustworthiness is to do some research on a particular pest problem and ask them some detailed questions based from the research to know if they can answer correctly, good pest control operators should be able to answer the questions but bogus or unreliable pest control operators will probably have a hard time answering the questions.

Rats are the famous and difficult creature that caused a lot of problem to us. Their presence will cause destruction to our property and they also could bring disease to our family. They are everywhere and able to adapt with our environment for their survival.

There are so many type of rats that could infested our house, but the common species are roof rat, Norway rat and house mice.

Disease caused by Rats

Rats can contaminate not only the surfaces of your floor, but also food sources within your homes. Leptospirosis, Salmonella and food poisoning are the common diseases carried by rats. It’s extremely dangerous as the virus can be passed through inhalation of particles released when mouse droppings, urine and saliva are disturbed.

Rats Dropping

• Leptospirosis

Leptospirosis is a bacterial disease and we are very familiar with this disease recently. Every year, some peoples were reported of this disease and a few of them were dead. This bacteria are spread through urine of the infected rat and it can survive up to months. This urine will contaminate the water or soil.

We can infested by this bacteria through direct contact with the infested urine or through contaminated water like swimming or drinking of that water.

• Salmonella

Salmonella is a bacteria from food which can cause illness. The disease, transmitted when mice and other rodents like rats contaminate your food or working surfaces where food is prepared. Common symptoms for people affected with salmonella, include fever, abdominal cramps and diarrhea, which can last up to 7 days. Young children and the elderly are at higher risk of salmonella. In latest years, numerous salmonella outbreaks have been linked to rodents, especially feeder rodents (live or frozen rats and mice used to feed pets such as reptiles).

Damage caused by Rats

These pests are commonly responsible for causing damage to personal property and are notorious for commercial crop destruction. In agricultural communities, rat is also responsible for machine and equipment malfunction. These pests are capable of causing massive losses, factory machinery and farming enterprises, as food that has been contaminated by rat is rendered unfit for consumption. Rat nests can be located within homes which became obvious when holes appear in the walls and floorboards. Nesting can also be found in drawers, shoe boxes, storage boxes, under cabinets and other areas that are seldom accessed. Infestations need to be handled swiftly and are most efficiently dealt with through professional pest control methods.

Unlike cockroaches and rats, termites doesn’t carry and spread diseases directly to humans. Their bites and stings aren’t majorly toxic to humans either. Regardless, termites are rather dangerous when it comes to the destructions of wooden furnitures, and houses. Throughout the years, termites had caused an extremely costly repair due to the damage it has done. Thus, what can be so harmful about termites?

Possible Health Issues caused by Termites

Termites prefer to infest damp and dark areas in your home, where the mold normally grows. Mold spreads through the wood or wall when the environment consist high level of moisture. As a result, the spores surfs through the air as termites burrow through the infested wood thus, causing an intensely spore-polluted air.

Spores could be harmful to those with allergies or asthma, and also causes inflammation or irritation when it gets contract to our skin. Even though termites rarely affected our health problem directly but the effect of their infestation may harm us. Thus it is better to eliminate the possibility of risking your health and get rid of termites at once.

Other effects of Termites

The existence of termites itself exposes many things to damages and dangers that it can cause through the irreversible destruction. Termite can go undetected for years without you realising it and caused extreme damage to your wood structure.

It is very important to hire a professional to conduct a termite inspection at your home at least once a year. However, if your house had previous termite infestation, you are recommended to have an inspection more frequently.

Regardless of how termites can cause problems to human health, the prevention of termites are far better than leaving it be – to prevent costly damage that will be difficult to be eradicate.
