Mice and rats often get grouped together, but the signs they leave behind are very different. Mice usually leave small rice-sized droppings, light scratching noises in walls, and faint chew marks around cabinets or food storage. Rats, on the other hand, leave larger blunt-ended droppings, heavier thumping or dragging sounds, and more significant damage to insulation, wiring, or stored goods.
Knowing the difference helps determine the right treatment plan. If you’re noticing activity in your home or business in Kingston, Ottawa, or the GTA, a quick inspection can confirm what you’re dealing with and prevent the issue from spreading.
