If you have water damage and mold, you have a need for pest control from a website like theexterminatorpestcontrol.co.uk. Since rodents and bugs are attracted to wet areas, calling a pest control professional during your basement renovation is always a good idea. Nothing exposes a rodent problem like a basement renovation. You might find evidence of rodents while waterproofing basement walls, rewiring electrics, or knocking down walls. It is common for our remediation technicians to find 20-30 mice carcasses during our remediation jobs, even in high-end homes. The property value does or even rigid maintenance seems to make minimal differences in the rodent problems found. Mice and rodents love to live in wall cavities. Wet, damp basements create a welcoming home for more than mold!

Last week, for example, opened up a basement full basement remediation found about 30 mice in a 500 square foot basement. So lots of mice not even a lot of space as far as the size of the basement. But there was a lot of mice getting in that basement and they were contaminating it severely. So if you’ve had remediation done or you have your basement opened up because of some flooding this year or this last couple of months. Good time to have a pest control company with good reviews a good reputation and lots of experience come through. And see if you could figure out how to eliminate mice.
