As the cold weather sets in, so do the rodents!
Customers have been calling in with reports of uninvited passengers. Rats and rodents build their nests in the engine compartment and wreak havoc on the electrical system.
Here are Three Practical Tips that prevent thousands of dollars of damage to your bus:
Tip 1: Rodent Traps
Contact your local pest control professional for information on purchasing or renting rodent traps. Check them regularly.
Tip 2. Park in Strategic Places
Avoid parking next to your school's trash or dumpster, over storm drains or other drainage openings. Park your buses in a clean area that is free from debris.
Tip 3: Keep Your Bus Trash Free
After each bus run, make sure the driver removes any trash or food left over from the students.
