Mice and rats - trapping and exclusion

Trap what's inside. Seal what let them in.

Trapping alone is a treadmill - new mice follow the same gaps inside. The lasting fix pairs interior trapping and exterior control with exclusion that seals the entry points, so the next mouse cannot get in.

How rodent work runs.

Two halves: remove the rodents that are here, and close the gaps so the next ones cannot follow.

01

Inspection and entry mapping

Find the activity, the runways, and every gap a mouse can use - a mouse fits through a hole the size of a dime, so the inspection is detailed.

02

Interior trapping, exterior stations

Interior monitoring and trapping to remove the current population, plus tamper-resistant exterior bait stations to cut pressure from outside.

03

Exclusion and sealing

Seal the entry points - the part most companies skip - so trapping is a one-time job, not a monthly subscription to the same problem.

What's in the rodent scope.

Rodents chew wiring, contaminate food, and breed fast. The difference between recurring rodent bills and a solved problem is the exclusion work, which is why we lead with sealing the structure.

For the recurring household program that folds this in, see residential pest control.

Rodent questions, answered.

Why do mice keep coming back after I trap them?

Because trapping removes the mice but not the way in. New mice follow the same gaps and pheromone trails. The lasting fix is exclusion - sealing the entry points - which is the step that turns trapping into a one-time job.

How small a gap can a mouse fit through?

About the size of a dime, and rats through a quarter. That is why the inspection looks at utility penetrations, garage corners, and foundation gaps most people would not think to check.

Are mice a health risk?

Yes. Rodents contaminate food surfaces, carry disease, and their gnawing on wiring is a real fire risk. Beyond the nuisance, they are worth taking seriously.

Do you clean up after rodents?

We provide sanitation guidance, and attic or crawlspace contamination from a wildlife-level intrusion is handled through our remediation and home-repair work.
