Step one: Remove the free lunch. Pick up fallen fruit, secure your garbage bins, and store pet food indoors. Think of it as putting leftovers away after a meal—simple.
Step two: Block the backstage pass. Rats can squeeze through a hole the size of a quarter. Check your shed, fence bases, and gaps under your deck. A little caulk or steel wool goes a long way.
