What Diseases Can Rodents Carry?

Wild rodents can spread a broad range of dangerous diseases, which is why we do not encourage people to try to address their rodent problems on their own. 

These diseases include: 

  • Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome
  • Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis 
  • Bubonic Plague
  • Asthma
  • Allergies

Even minimal contact with wild rodents can spread or aggravate these diseases. Leave the rodent control to the experts! We have the tools for proper handling of contaminated materials and effective rodent removal. Don’t put yourself or your family in danger by trying to handle a rodent problem on your own. 

What is the Difference Between a Rat and a Mouse?

Understanding the differences between rats and mice is essential for effective pest control. These rodents might seem similar at first glance, but they have distinct characteristics that impact how they behave, where they inhabit, and how they can be managed. At Rocklin Pest Control, we aim to educate you about these differences to better address rodent infestations.

 Here's a breakdown of the main key distinctions between rats and mice:

  1. Size: Rats are generally larger than mice. Rats can measure up to 9-11 inches in length (not including their tails), while mice are typically smaller, ranging from 2-4 inches in length (not including their tails).
  2. Tail Length: Both rats and mice have tails, but the tail length differs. Rats have longer, scaly tails that are roughly the same length as their bodies. Mice have thinner, longer tails that can be as long as their bodies.
  3. Ears and Eyes: Rats have larger, more prominent ears and eyes relative to their size, whereas mice have proportionally smaller ears and eyes.
  4. Body Shape: Rats have stocky bodies with blunt noses, while mice have smaller heads and more slender bodies.
  5. Behavior and Habits: Rats are often cautious and tend to avoid new objects placed in their environment. Mice, on the other hand, are curious and may readily investigate new items. Rats are generally more hesitant to try new foods, while mice are more likely to sample a wider variety of foods.
  6. Nesting Habits: Rats tend to build nests in hidden, secluded areas, often above ground. Mice prefer to nest in dark, quiet places that are closer to the ground, such as within walls or storage boxes.
  7. Droppings: Rat droppings are larger and capsule-shaped, whereas mouse droppings are smaller and have a more granular, rice-like appearance.
  8. Reproductive Rate: Mice are known for their rapid reproduction rates. A single female mouse can produce several litters in a year, leading to quick population growth. Rats reproduce at a slower rate in comparison.
  9. Damage and Impact: Both rats and mice can cause damage by gnawing on structures, wiring, and personal items. Rats are known for their powerful gnawing abilities, which can result in more extensive damage.

Understanding the differences between rats and mice can help you better identify the rodent species present in your property and develop targeted pest control strategies. Whether you're dealing with rats or mice, Rocklin Pest Control has the expertise to effectively manage rodent infestations.
