Rodent problem? Stop. Think. Protect.
The fastest or most obvious solution to troublesome rodents – rats, mice, gophers, etc. — is toxic and may be dangerous to wildlife, pets, the environment, even to your family.
The best way to prevent a rodent problem is by prevention, but if you need to get rid of rodents, consider snap traps and encouraging predators.
Stop, Think, and Protect what matters by choosing the least toxic pest control alternative.
