Rats and mice are resourceful and athletic pests. They can leap over a foot into the air, scale trees, climb certain exteriors, and squeeze through openings you wouldn't expect. Mice are tiny rodents that can squeeze through gaps the width of a dime. If an opening isn't large enough, they can use their teeth to make it bigger. Rats are larger rodents but can still fit through surprisingly small gaps. An adult rat can get through a gap the width of a quarter. Once inside, there are many unfortunate things rodents do.

• Rodents chew holes to go from wall voids to interior spaces.
• Rodents chew holes to get into stored foods, contaminating any food they touch.
• Rodents leave their droppings as they explore. These droppings are a source of disease.
• Rodents leave droplets of urine, which they use to help them navigate by using their sense of smell.
• Rodents chew on stored furniture. They also get into couch cushions, rip out the stuffing, and soil the materials with their waste.
• Rodents chew on wires and thus are considered a fire hazard.
• Rodents carry ticks and fleas on their bodies. They can have dozens of these tiny parasites.
