Rat and Mouse Problem Remedies At Burns Feed Store

/in , /by

RAT & MOUSE PROBLEMS INCREASE DURING THE FALL MONTHS

Rodents are a nuisance year round in the Portland, metro area, but fall is a particularly active season. As temperatures drop, rats and mice search for food, like seed around bird feeders or leftover chicken feed, and for warm, dry shelter. Unfortunately, that often means they end up in garages, homes, barns, sheds, and animal shelters.

When rodents move in, they can cause significant damage to walls, insulation, stored goods, animal feed, and bedding. Even worse, they can carry fleas and disease. That’s why it’s important to address rodent activity as soon as it starts.

Burns Feed Store has the tools and products you need to protect your property.

We stock a wide selection of traps like snap traps, glue traps, EZ-set traps, and more. We also carry rodent repellents, which, when used correctly, can help keep mice and rats away for weeks or months at a time. Prevention is often easier than elimination, but if an infestation does occur, we have you covered.

At Burns Feed Store, you’ll find trusted rodent control brands such as Tomcat, Just One Bite, Ramik, and others. Baits are available in a variety of forms to fit your needs:

  • Pre-filled, ready-to-use bait stations
  • Pelletized, chunk, or bar bait
  • Effective liquid bait
  • Packaged, portioned baits with refillable stations
  • Large 4–5 lb. buckets of pellets, chunks, or place packs for multiple placements or bigger infestations

Rodent infestations can be tough to tackle, but with the right traps or bait, solid advice, and a little persistence, you can get rid of them.

Stop by Burns Feed Store today and we’ll help you choose the best products and share proven strategies for keeping rodents under control.
