Identifying rodents in San Antonio
House mice are 2–3" body, gray-brown. Roof rats are slender with long tails and live in attics. Norway rats are stockier with shorter tails and burrow at ground level.
Behavior & habitat
Mice need only a 1/4" gap to enter; rats need 1/2". They breed year-round, contaminate food, gnaw on wires (a major fire hazard), and travel established runways along walls.
Why rodents are a problem here
Carry Hantavirus, Salmonella, and Leptospirosis. Chewed wiring causes house fires. Droppings and urine contaminate insulation and stored goods.
San Antonio seasonal outlook: Termite swarms hit hardest in spring, scorpions peak June through September, and rodents push indoors as soon as nights drop below 60°F.
Signs of a rodents problem
- • Droppings (small dark capsules) in pantries, cabinets, or attics
- • Gnaw marks on food packaging, baseboards, or wires
- • Scratching or scampering sounds in walls and attic at night
- • Greasy rub marks along walls where rodents repeatedly travel
