Keep Rodents Out This Winter 

As the cold months set in, rodents like rats and mice start looking for warm places to nest. Unfortunately, that often means your home or business.

At Pest-a-Lensie, we know the unique challenges of pest control in Cape Town during winter.

Here are our top winter rodent prevention tips to help you protect your property.

Seal All Entry Points

Rodents can squeeze through gaps as small as a 5-cent coin.

Check for:

Gaps under doors and windows

Holes around pipes and drains

Cracks in walls, roofs, or foundations

Seal these entry points using steel wool, silicone sealant, or weather stripping.

Keep Food & Waste Secure

Rodents are attracted to easy food sources.

Do this:

Store food in airtight containers

Clean up spills and crumbs immediately

Keep outdoor bins sealed and away from walls

Avoid leaving pet food out overnight

Keep Your Garden Clean & Tidy

Rodents often nest outside first, then move indoors.

Trim trees and bushes away from your house

Remove piles of wood, leaves, or garden debris

Keep storage sheds clean and rodent-proof

Use Tamper-Proof Rodent Bait Stations

At Pest-a-Lensie, we supply safe, tamper-proof bait stations to monitor and control rodent activity. 

These are pet and child-friendly solutions for long-term rodent prevention.
