Rodents are the number one winter pest pressure for homeowners. According to the National Pest Management Association (NPMA), rodents invade about 21 million homes each winter. Experts from Western Pest Services, a New Jersey-based pest control company with branches throughout the Mid-Atlantic and Northeast regions, provide homeowners the top 10 signs that may indicate a rodent infestation.
1.Scampering, rustling and clawing sounds in the attic and walls, particularly at night 2.Chewing sounds, which may sound like heavy scratching 3.Low-pitched chirps or squeaks 4.Gnaw marks on stored food, walls and wires 5.Small, rice-sized droppings throughout the house 6.Piles of nesting materials, including shredded paper, bunches of dry grass or small twigs, fabric, and furniture stuffing 7.Smudges or grease markings on the walls caused by the oil and dirt in rodent coats 8.Foot prints or tail marks in dusty spots 9.Urine pools or trails 10.Live or dead rodents
While rodents are a year-round problem, winter is when homeowners see the most of this pest because mice and rats move indoors when temperatures drop, in search of food and shelter, says Hope Bowman, technical specialist for Western Pest Services. If there is one mouse in your home, there are bound to be more and ignoring the signs of a potential infestation can cause damage to your home and create health-related risks.
Rodents are known to spread more than 35 diseases worldwide, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, including the potentially fatal Hantavirus and salmonella. Mice and rats can also introduce disease-carrying fleas and ticks into homes. These pests can also cause serious damage to the structure of a home. According to the NPMA, its estimated that rodents cause up to 25 percent of house fires in the U.S. every year.
Rodents will chew through anything they can: wood, drywall, attic insulation and even electrical wires, which can increase the risk of house fires, says Missy Henriksen, vice president of public affairs for NPMA. Homeowners should look at prevention as the first line of defense against these pests and take the necessary steps to keep them out of their homes.
The experts at Western Pest Services recommend taking precaution when signs of rodents are discovered.
Often, do-it-yourself solutions are not effective quickly enough, allowing rodents to continue breeding, says Bowman. If you find signs of rodents in your home, contact a pest management professional immediately. A trained professional will understand the biology of the rodent at hand and use his/her knowledge to control the problem quickly, effectively and, most importantly, in the safest way possible for your family.

BURGLARS struck six houses in three days across Braintree and Witham, stealing jewellery, a laptop and a car.
The Braintree break-ins happened in Rosemary Avenue on January 5, Sunnyside and Rayne Road on January 6, Martens Meadow on January 7 and Chelmer Road on January 8.
The raiders gained entry by smashing rear windows or patio doors before searching through the owners possessions upstairs and downstairs.
A silver Ford Focus was stolen from a driveway in Martens Meadow, along with money and a pillow case, plus perfumes, jewellery, a laptop and a set of knifes were taken in Rayne Road.
On January 7 two emerald and diamond cluster rings were stolen during a burglary in Witham.
It happened in Powers Hall End between 8.10am and 4.45pm on January 7, after the patio door at the back of the house was smashed.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- The Lincoln County Sheriff's Office has issued a warning to area residents regarding the 'Irish Travelers', a group of transient contractors who authorities say target homeowners with quick home repair job scams.
Authorities say the North Augusta, South Carolina-based group of contractors known as the Irish Travelers have started showing up in Lincoln County. They were spotted in the Boger City-area on Monday, but officials say no incidents have yet to be reported.
The group has visited the Charlotte-area each Spring for years, officials say, targeting the elderly in home repair and burglary scams.
In one such case NBCCharlotte reported on last year, an elderly Gastonia woman was taken for $1900 by the Irish Travelers who never performed promised work, according to the Gaston County Police Sergeant Myron Shelor.
The Lincoln County Sheriff's Office says the group uses door-to-door high-pressure sales tactics for driveway blacktopping or sealing, roof work or painting.
"Their work tends to be very shoddy, very crude or they may not finish it at all, Shelor told NBCCharlotte in an interview on the Irish Travelers in 2013. "Or, they get close to the end and say we went over, so it's going to cost you more and demand more money and strong-arm people for more money. They typically want cash only and don't take any other kind of payments.

Transient 'Irish Travelers' spotted in Charlotte area
The U.S. on Tuesday said in-person registration of domestic workers of foreign diplomats would be mandatory, an apparent fallout of the arrest of Indian diplomat Devyani Khobragade over alleged misrepresentation of the salary paid to her maid.
Without making any reference to the Khobragade case, which resulted in a stalemate in India-U.S. ties, the first-ever Federal Strategic Action Plan on Services for Victims of Human Trafficking in the U.S. contained a series of announcements on domestic workers and their alleged exploitation.
The action plan, released by the White House, stated that the in-person registration of domestic help of diplomats in Washington would be done soon after their arrival in the U.S.
The move came amid controversy over the arrest of Ms. Khobragade, the former Indian Deputy-Consul General in New York, on charges of visa fraud and misrepresentation of facts following complaints of exploitation lodged against her by her maid Sangeeta Richard. Both India and Ms. Khobragade have refuted the charges.
The action plan, released at a White House event by Cecilia Munoz, director of the Domestic Policy Council, stated: Department of State will develop procedures for the in-person registration of domestic workers employed by diplomatic personnel in the Washington DC area shortly after their arrival in the U.S. to apprise them further of their rights and available services.
However, it did not mention anything about in-person registration of foreign domestic workers in cities like New York, where a significantly large number of diplomats are posted.
Running into 80 pages, the document said the State Department will continue to address the protection of A-3 and G-5 workers through its regular internal working group meetings on domestic worker issues, which reviews allegations and cases, and discusses strategies and ongoing efforts to prevent abuse and ensure compliance with its requirements.
A-3 and G-5 visas are for foreign domestic workers who come to the U.S. with diplomats or foreign officials who work with international bodies like the UN, World Bank and International Monetary Fund.
The State Department will continue to streamline referrals of potential victims to its Bureau of Diplomatic Security, which coordinates with the Department of Justice and other agencies to investigate allegations of abuse.
According to the document, the State Department will continue to brief stakeholders annually, including NGOs, to raise awareness about efforts to protect and identify victims of trafficking.

Now, registration of diplomats’ domestic helps mandatory in U.S.
