⚠️ Hantavirus: What Every Homeowner Needs to Know ⚠️
By Venom Pest Control
Most people think mice and rats are just a nuisance—but they can carry something far more serious: Hantavirus.

🦠 What is Hantavirus?
Hantavirus is a rare but potentially life-threatening virus transmitted by rodents—especially deer mice, which are common here in Washington State. It can cause Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS), a serious respiratory disease.

🐭 How Does It Spread?
You don’t have to be bitten to get sick. Hantavirus spreads when:
You breathe in air contaminated with rodent droppings, urine, or saliva
You disturb areas like attics, crawlspaces, garages, or sheds where rodents have been active
You touch contaminated surfaces and then your face
⚠️ Even sweeping or vacuuming rodent droppings can release the virus into the air.

🤒 Symptoms to Watch For
Early symptoms can feel like the flu:
Fever & chills
Muscle aches
Fatigue
As it progresses, it can become severe:
Shortness of breath
Coughing
Fluid buildup in the lungs
👉 If you suspect exposure, seek medical attention immediately.

🛑 Why Rodent Control Matters
The best defense against hantavirus is preventing rodents from entering your home in the first place. That means:
Sealing entry points
Proper sanitation
Professional inspection

Spring and summer bring bugs… and salespeople knocking on your door.

They might be friendly — but many of them:

🚫 Aren’t licensed to talk about pesticides
🚫 Don’t actually work in pest control
🚫 Only get paid if they get you to sign
🚫 Ignore your “No Soliciting” signs

Most are summer hires for big out-of-state companies. Once you sign, they disappear, and you’re stuck with long contracts, sneaky fees, and a call center that won’t pick up.

---

👀 Watch Out for These Common Sales Tricks:

⚠️ “We’re treating a house nearby…”
They’ll offer a “deal” if you sign today — but it’s just a rush tactic.

⚠️ “It’s a seasonal thing…”
Sounds harmless, but could mean monthly charges, long-term contracts, auto-renewals, and $300+ cancellation fees.

⚠️ “I saw bugs on your house…”
Scare tactics. No one can diagnose a pest issue from the sidewalk — and if they’re not licensed, it’s illegal to try.

---

🔍 Always Ask to See a WSDA License
In Washington, if someone isn’t licensed by the WSDA, they’re not allowed to talk about or apply pesticides. Ask for their license number — no license, no deal!

📞 You can verify licenses through WSDA at (877) 301-4555.

---

🚫 Beware of the Fine Print
Those contracts they want you to sign? They can hide:

❗ 12–24 month commitments
❗ Big cancellation fees
❗ Auto-renewals
❗ Extra visits you didn’t ask for

---

🐭 Rodents Don’t Need a Welcome Mat… Just a Tiny Gap. 🏠
Did you know a mouse can squeeze through a hole the size of a dime (about ¼ inch)… and a rat only needs a gap the size of a quarter (about ½ inch) to get inside your home or business?
That’s smaller than most people realize — and it’s why rodent exclusion is one of the most important steps in effective pest control.
At Venom Pest Control, we don’t just treat the problem — we help stop it before it starts. We identify and seal those small entry points around vents, crawlspaces, foundations, utility lines, and rooflines to keep rodents out where they belong.
✅ FREE inspections
✅ No obligation
✅ Local & family-owned
✅ Serving Gig Harbor & surrounding areas
Don’t wait until you hear scratching in the walls. Protect your home the right way — from the outside in.
