While the need for better protection from all insects kicks into high gear as the summer months approach, rodents are spreading disease and filth creating a need for increased prevention.
The University of Nebraska reported that models detect that virus-carrying rodents can spread with the change of weather patterns in some countries. The report stated that this could expose populations to diseases not previously encountered.
In Vermont, where there is a discussion of curbing the use of rodenticides, according to WCAX-TV, a recent Hantavirus outbreak has residents worried about infestation possibilities.
North of San Diego, Hantavirus was discovered near the Orange County line near Mission Viejo, the first rodent to be tested positive for the virus this year in California.
Prevention is the best way to stop Hantavirus from spreading by rodents, and Burrtec’s Ratshut is the industry’s toughest product against rats and mice.
