As per Dr. Bhattacharyay Pest Control is a complete science. So it should be controlled scientifically not disturbing the environment and natural system. We always use non toxic & herbal pesticides, mechanical process to control pest and insects. Three species of wild rodents, namely the house rat, Rattus rattus (n= 42), the lesser bandicoot rat, Bandicota bengalensis (n= 34) and the Indian gerbil, Tatera indica (n= 15), were live-captured from houses and crop fields. Examination of various organs revealed that the highest rates of endoparasitic infection occurred in R. Rattus (40.5%), followed by B. Bengalensis (35.3 %) and then T. Indica (20.0%), with an overall infection rate of 35.2%.

All three rodent species were found naturally infected with one or more species of helminths. Metacestodes (1-6) of Cysticercus fasciolaris (larvae of Taenia taeniaeformis) were found in all three rodent species (in the liver). In one male T. indica, numerous robust T. taeniaeformis metacestodes were found in oval sacs attached to the mesentery and the abdominal wall, an unusual site. The cauda epididymal fluid of the same gerbil was also found to be infected with a very rare species of strongylid nematode, which could not be identified to genus or species level. It is possible that this nematode is transmitted sexually and thus may affect the reproductive potential of gerbils. This appears to be the first report of this phenomenon. In one B. bengalensis individual, the intestine was found to be obstructed with an acanthocephalan, Moniliformis moniliformis, with concurrent infection with C. fasciolaris in the form of multiple cysts in the liver. Although no natural protozoan infection was found in these field rodents, experimental Trypanosoma evansi infection has been established in all three species with high pathogenicity, and the possibility of sexual transmission was supported by the presence of T. evansi in the cauda epididymal fluid of male rats.

Some time we use Peppermint Oil. Peppermint oil is an effective method for keeping mice and rats away. Cinnamon is also another scent that mice and rats hate. Vinegar, The pungent smell of vinegar is also a natural way to repel mice and rats. Citronella, Ammonia, Bleach, Mothballs also we use. *Rodents are common and important hosts or carriers of pathogens with public health importance, and rodents play an important role in the ecology of Zoologic transmission. The overall worldwide prevalence of Cryptosporidium spp. in rodents is 19.8%.
House mice are small rodents with rounded ears, a short snout and a long tail. Deer mice live up to two years and are reddish-brown to golden-brown in color. Most rodents live: Hollow logs, tree roots, and tall grasses provide protected places for rodents to shelter. Mice prefer forested areas, pastures, grassy fields, and farmland, and usually hide in underbrush or other dense vegetation, such as tall grasses, shrubs, and vines. How many diseases do rodents carry? In fact, rats and mice are known to spread more than 35 diseases. These diseases can be spread to humans directly through handling of live or dead rodents, contact with rodent feces, urine, or saliva, as well as rodent bites.

Mice enter homes through cracks and holes found in walls, floors and foundations. Homeowners commonly do not recognize mouse holes until other signs of infestation appear. Due to their body shape, mice are capable of fitting through holes much smaller than appear likely. Where do mice hide during the day? House mice prefer living in cool, dark places during the day. The most common areas they like to hide are in between walls, pantries, cupboards, sofas, old boxes, and other similar areas wherein they would not be disturbed inside your home. What attracts mice to catch them? Sweet or fatty foods are favorites of these rodents, so peanut butter, soft cheese, or wet cat food often work well. In general, a small amount of sticky bait is most likely to make a mouse trigger the trap.
Yes, mice are nocturnal creatures, so they are most likely to be active and come out of their hiding during the night. They go out searching for food and nesting material when everyone is sound asleep.
How Long Do Mice Stay in a House? The lifespan of a typical mouse ranges from about six months to two years. Generally, the more access to food and shelter a mouse has, the longer it will live. This means that a mouse in your home has the potential to stick around for several months at a minimum. Contrary to popular belief, mice do not leave on their own, and in order to successfully rid your home of them, you will need to contact a professional pest control company like Pest Quest. Rodent & Mice infestation inside of your home is too much dangerous. Rodents & Mice are responsible for Maximum electrical fire and spread of verities types of disease.
