Possibly the most aggravating thing to experience in a brand new townhouse is a rat infestation. How on earth does this happen?! On today’s edition of the Pestgeek Podcast, host and integrated pest control management expert Frank ‘The Pestgeek’ Hernandez explains how a beautiful brand new townhome can already be plagued by rats. This brand new construction can already have rats, ants, large roaches, spiders and silver fish. For starters, air conditioning is going to be installed and the conduits 99 out of 100 are going to be left open enabling rats to climb up the tube right up the wall in between two floors and get inside the home.
There are plenty of rats, rodents -usually roof rats- all over this property because there is no rodent control being done. In addition to this, there are a lot of these openings that aren’t sealed properly- especially with the spigots. A rat needs only a half an inch opening the size of one’s thumb to get through.
With new construction that isn’t sealed one can see now other problems, for instance: the attics aren’t sealed. If a rat goes up this unit it’s going to go across the attic and come into another unit. Often sounding like cats doing laps on the roof, one needs to understand that when moving in, a new construction needs to get sealed with an excluder product (exclusion service) that the rodents can’t eat through. In fact, if one puts foam only, they can eat through foam. Do not skip this video!
