In the Press: 🐀🌳 Practical Rat Control in the City 🌳🐀
One simple yet effective solution is to install wire mesh on the base of tree guards and cover it with small stones.
This small PM on rat’s control:
✅ Eliminates a key hiding spot for rodents
✅ Helps reduce infestations near buildings
✅ Keeps our city cleaner and safer
Simple pest management often comes down to prevention and controlling the environment. There's no point in placing poison around garbage bags, installing snap traps, setting up glue traps, or using rodent repellent chemicals if rats can easily enter through an open door. Closing the door to their shelter works for our building. Hopefully, the neighboring buildings on the street will do the same.
