Many people believe that the rodents are spotted out and just killed in either humane way or otherwise. The reason for this thought is that these are really annoying creatures and can cause a lot of damage to the property. In addition to this these animals are also responsible for spreading infestation among the human societies. Therefore many people find it suitable to kill the rodents so that they can permanently get rid of them. Usually this is not the recommended way and most of the people including professionals think of more humane ways for killing the rodents if it is necessary. It is always discouraged to kill the rodent animals ruthlessly. Especially this is more discouraged if they are small baby animals because these are completely dependent on their mothers for food.

Using the exclusion methods
People have come up with different ways of trapping the animals and then getting rid of them. There are some inhumane traps which can even kill these animals away instantly like the snap traps and glue traps. However if certain other techniques are used, like the exclusion method or trapping them in live traps and then relocating them out of the house, this can be more useful.
