Seal any holes in walls, even small ones, especially around cupboards, closets, window casings, and vents.
Check that all your vent covers fit well and are undamaged, especially along your roof.
If you feed wild birds, stop. Spilled seed is rodent food.

Keep your garden floor free of any fallen fruits or vegetables.
Keep landscaping tidy (short grass, trimmed shrubs, no leaf litter, or clutter).

Despite their small size, rodents in Washington D.C, Fairfax County, and Arlington County can unleash chaos on your property. Rats and mice can cause structural damage, chewing through electrical wiring, and getting into all sorts of mayhem. They can also carry fleas, ticks, disease pathogens, and allergens.
Even in their afterlife, they can leave a lasting mark. As a rat perishes and begins to decay, fleas, pathogens, and unpleasant odors persist. Moreover, the lifeless body becomes a magnet for other insects, making your situation even more complicated. It’s important to handle the situation promptly once it arises.
