East Bay homes are being inundated by pests, rodents, and even wildlife, seeking shelter from the rain and extremely cold temperatures.
“They like to burrow, they love decks and they like to burrow underneath the foundation to get underneath the homes,” said Douglas.
Inside Bill’s Ace Hardware in Martinez, owner Bill Wygal is bracing for a surge in customers over the next few days when the rain lets up and homeowners have a chance to patch up any areas of their home that rodents are entering through. “I would like to always point out that people go the less toxic way to start with,” said Bill Wygal, owner of Bill’s Ace Hardware in Martinez and Concord. “Peanut butter works usually, and we found recently that plain walnuts for baking get em at the grocery stores and put a few chunks on there and the mice will usually go for that,” he said.
People want to avoid using toxic chemicals outdoors against pests and rodents when it rains or is about to rain, because those chemicals get into our storm drains, and then into our rivers and creeks.This article tagged under:
