Exclusion is based on the fact that rodents need to be prevented from entering a home or structure through holes in siding or openings under doorways. But many PMPs forget that rats and mice can enter through plumbing and sewer penetrations!
Protects Sewer Pipes
Sewer Assassin works like a bait station before rodents enter, by dropping rodenticide (as needed) into the cleanouts of plumbing systems. It can be used both vertically for ground cleanouts and horizontally for those in the wall.
A cleanout is a pipe or pipe(s) with a cap that connects a home or facility’s drain line to the sewer to provide access for problems or blockages.
New Revenues
A unique solution, Sewer Assassin should be monitored once installed until activity on the baits lessens. PMPs can gain monthly service charges by including this as an add-on service for both residential and commercial customers! To order the Sewer Assassin, visit the company’s website.
For homes and garages, prevention is a big part of exclusion, which is a cornerstone of pest control’s IPM (Integrated Pest Management) program. The focus of IPM is to assess and then control pests and rodents by using fewer chemicals if possible.
