what measures should be taken to avoid the threats of rodents
The air handler in a house with an attic should be located in the attic space to efficiently distribute heated or cooled air throughout the house.

Not if you want paint splatters in your attic.
Peppermint oil can be used as a natural deterrent for rodents, as its strong scent is believed to repel them. When using it in the attic, ensure that it is applied in a safe manner, such as soaking cotton balls in the oil and placing them in strategic areas. However, while it may help reduce rodent activity, it is not a guaranteed solution and should be used in conjunction with other pest control measures. Always ensure proper ventilation and avoid using excessive amounts that could create an overpowering odor.
Rodents can seek shelter in attics during the summer months, even in very hot conditions, as they provide a safe and concealed environment. However, extreme heat can drive them to seek cooler areas, like basements or underground burrows. If the attic is excessively hot, rodents may prefer to stay away until cooler temperatures return. Overall, while they can inhabit attics, their presence may be influenced by the heat and availability of food and water.
During an attic inspection, key factors to consider include checking for proper insulation, ventilation, signs of water damage or leaks, pests or rodents, and ensuring there are no safety hazards such as exposed wiring or structural issues.
You should proof the attic to exclude. There are all types of readily available nets, screens etc to keep them out.
