Always clean up spilled food and water in the kitchen. Store all food in air-tight containers.
Keep kitchen garbage in containers with tight-fitting lids.
Pick up pet food dishes and water when not actively in use.
Patch and repair any holes, however small, in walls between rooms, between the garage and the attic, or leading outdoors. Pay particular attention to the back of cupboards and closets, vents, and around window casings.
Inspect all vents, especially along the roof, to be sure the vent covers fit properly and are in good repair.
Stop feeding wild birds. Spilled seed attracts and feeds rats and mice.
When adding food scraps to the compost, always turn the compost to cover any food scraps fully.
Prune any branches that overhang your roof, or that grow close to the roof.
Pick up fallen fruit or vegetables in the garden.
Keep the grass mowed short, trim shrubs, and remove leaf litter and clutter that can provide shelter.

Understanding rodent behavior informs successful rodent prevention practices and helps you to identify signs of a rodent infestation.
While many pests are most active in spring and summer, some may show up in your home in winter, seeking shelter from the chilly temperatures.
While winter’s cold is a primary force driving these critters indoors, storms, rain, and drought can do so, too. Before you panic over the sounds, look for other signs of a rodent infestation.
