🚗🐭 Ever wonder how you’d know if rodents have been under the hood of your car? 👀

In this video, we walk through a real example of rodent activity found in a vehicle engine.

❄️🚗 As the weather cools down, your car can start looking very inviting to rodents 🐭🛻

A warm engine after a drive feels like the perfect winter hangout.

You usually don’t see mice or rats first. 🐭🐀
They stay in hidden areas - attics, walls, crawl spaces.

The first signs?
• Scratching or rustling noises 👂
• Then droppings show up later 💩

Rodents can jump 5-6 ft - which means that tree touching your home can act like a launchpad 🐀🌳➡️🏠

Keeping branches trimmed about 6 ft away helps block easy access and reduce unwanted visitors. ✂️🌿

🐭🔍 Tiny holes can lead to BIG problems.
Mice only need a pinky-sized opening… rats need just a thumb.

🐿️🦝 And squirrels and raccoons? They’ll make the hole bigger.
Your home has more hidden entry points.

Rodent droppings are often confused with gecko droppings - the quick tell. 🐭🦎🔍

Rodent pellets are dry and pointed, commonly found along travel paths; gecko pellets are dark with a distinct white cap (urates).

Spotting droppings on your grill signals pests have found food, warmth, or shelter. 🔍🐀

After grilling, it's best to scrub grates, degrease surfaces, clear drip pans, and cover the grill. 🧽

🚨 Rodent Season Is Coming! 🚨

Don't let rats and mice take over your home 🐭🏠 - they're not just creepy, they’re costly and harmful.

❗ Chewed wires can turn into a fire hazard
❗ Droppings can become a health risk
❗ Noises, scurrying and scratching are unnerving 😳

Ballgame with The Bug Master fam at Dell Diamond! ⚾️🧢

We cheered on the Round Rock Express, lounged on the berm with blankets, snagged a few autographs, and soaked up that Texas summer sun. 🌤️
