What Are Rodents?
Rodents are mammals that make up the order Rodentia, which consists of over 2,000 species. This makes rodents the largest group of mammals, accounting for about 40% of all mammal species. Some of the most common rodents include rats, mice, and squirrels.
While most rodents are small, some are quite large, such as beavers and capybaras. Rodents have sharp incisors that they use to gnaw on a variety of materials, such as wood, plastic, and even metal. Rodents are also known for their ability to reproduce quickly and in large numbers. Due to their small size, rodents often find their way into homes, where they build nests and breed.

Signs of a Rodent Infestation
Knowing the signs of a rodent infestation can help you take action quickly and prevent the problem from getting worse. Some of the most common signs of a rodent infestation include:
- Scratching or scurrying sounds - Rodents are nocturnal, which means they are most active at night. If you hear scratching or scurrying sounds in the walls, attic, or crawl space of your home, it could be a sign of a rodent infestation.
- Droppings - One of the most obvious signs of a rodent infestation is finding droppings. Rodent droppings are usually small and black, but they can also be brown or gray depending on the species. If you find rodent droppings in your home, it's important to clean them up as soon as possible to prevent the spread of disease.
- Nests - Rodents build nests out of a variety of materials, such as paper, cardboard, and fabric. If you notice nests in your home, especially in the attic or crawl space, it could be a sign of a rodent infestation.
- Gnaw marks - Rodents have sharp incisors that they use to gnaw on a variety of materials, such as wood, plastic, and even metal. If you notice gnaw marks on furniture, baseboards, or other items in your home, it could be a sign of a rodent infestation.
- Grease marks - Rodents have oily fur that can leave behind grease marks on walls, baseboards, and other surfaces. If you notice grease marks in your home, especially near entry points, it could be a sign of a rodent infestation.
- Food containers that have been chewed through - Rodents are known for their ability to chew through a variety of materials, including plastic and cardboard. If you notice food containers that have been chewed through, it could be a sign of a rodent infestation.
