Which Rodents Are Common to Las Vegas?

Rodents weren’t always a big problem in Las Vegas, but the NWCOA has found more and more instances of a few breeds showing up in homes and businesses in recent years. The most frequently spotted rats in the Valley are Norway (brown) rats and roof rats. Each has their own special preferences. Norway rats are large and, as their nickname implies, brown. They enjoy infesting structures and prefer being close to the ground. Roof rats have become a major pest in tall buildings because they frequent high altitudes. Office buildings, attics, and multi-story homes have seen a massive uptick in roof rat issues within just the last decade. For mice, there have been big booms in the deer mice and house mice populations. Deer mice thrive in Las Vegas because of the warmer temperatures and can be easily detected because of their food caches. If you see small piles of food scraps lying around, there’s a good chance you’re dealing with deer mice. The basic house mouse spreads like wildfire, having about 8-10 pups per litter. If you see one mouse, we can guarantee there are more nearby.

Rodents May Be Small, but They’re a Big Problem

While you may be tempted to say, ‘it’s just one mouse’, keep in mind they’re incredibly dangerous to your home and health. Rodents carry a multitude of diseases. Roof rats, in particular, are known carriers of typhus, salmonella, and rat bite fever. They don’t need to bite in order to pass some of these diseases on; roof rat waste carries as many diseases as their saliva. Speaking of waste, there will be a lot of it. Rodent waste carries bacteria and can initiate asthma attacks in those prone to them. This is gross by itself, but rodents are also highly destructive. House mice will chew through anything. Expect them to invade pantries, storage closets, and furniture. Your items will get torn up in the rodents’ quest to make comfortable nests, costing you money.
