Rodent Control

Mice and rats don't take the winter off. We find the gaps they're using, seal them shut, clear the population inside, then monitor the perimeter so nothing moves back in.

The problem

A dime-sized gap is all a mouse needs

The first cold night sends rodents looking for somewhere warm, and most homes hand them a dozen ways in — utility penetrations, weep holes, gaps under siding, a garage door seal that's been flat for years. Traps alone just thin the herd; the entry points keep restocking it.

  • They get in almost anywhereA house mouse fits through a 6 mm gap and a rat through 12 mm. We survey the whole envelope — foundation, soffits, vents, pipe chases — instead of guessing.
  • The damage is out of sightChewed wiring, shredded insulation, contaminated pantry stock and droppings in the attic — most of it happens in spaces you never look at until there's a smell.
  • A pair becomes a problem fastMice breed year-round once they're indoors. Waiting out the winter is how a couple of nighttime scratches turns into a full infestation by spring.
The service

What's included in every job

Full exclusion survey

We map every active entry point around the building, then seal them with steel wool, hardware cloth, mortar and sheet metal — materials rodents can't chew through.

Interior removal

Snap traps and monitoring placed in the runways, voids and roof spaces rodents actually use — no interior baiting where kids, pets or food are present.

Monitored exterior stations

Locked, tamper-resistant stations around the perimeter, checked and serviced on a schedule so pressure from the yard never reaches the walls again.

How it works

From first call to sealed and quiet

Inspection

A licensed technician walks the interior and the full exterior envelope, identifies the species, and photographs every entry point and active runway.

Seal & remove

Entry points are closed with permanent materials while trapping clears whatever is already inside. Most homes are handled in a single visit.

Follow-up & monitoring

We return to clear traps, confirm the seal held, and set up ongoing exterior monitoring. Activity between visits? We come back free.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much does rodent control cost?

Rodent work is quoted per property rather than off a price list, because the amount of exclusion work varies enormously between a tight suburban build and a century home or a cottage on a rubble foundation. The inspection and quote are free, and you'll have the number before anyone starts.

Is it safe around kids and pets?

Yes. Exterior bait stations are locked and tamper-resistant, anchored in place and accessible only to rodents. Inside, we use snap traps and monitors rather than bait, placed in wall voids, attics and other spaces the household doesn't access.

Do you actually seal the entry points, or just set traps?

We seal. Exclusion is the part that makes the result last — trapping alone empties the building and leaves the door open. Every quote breaks out the exclusion work so you can see exactly what's being closed up.

How long until they're gone?

Most homes go quiet within one to two weeks of the initial visit. Larger infestations, commercial buildings and properties backing onto fields or ravines take longer and get a monitoring schedule to match.

Can you service a cottage or a property I'm not at?

Yes — this is one of our most common calls. We can inspect, seal and monitor a seasonal property while you're away and send photos of the entry points before and after they're closed.
