  • Keep yards trash free and also clean behind wooden steps, under decks, and in areas that could shelter rodents.

  • Cover garbage cans with tight fitting lids.

  • Don't let yard waste pile up on the ground.

  • Avoid feeding pets outdoors, and store food in rat-proof containers.

  • Clean up pet droppings on or near your property daily.

  • Seal holes in your home's foundations, and fasten floor drains.

  • Pile wood and other storage materials away from walls and at least 18" above the ground.
