Common Rodent Control Questions

How are rodents getting in?+
Mice can squeeze through gaps the size of a dime; rats need about a quarter-sized opening. Common entry points include AC lines, plumbing penetrations, garage doors, and roof vents.
Do you use poison baits?+
We prefer trapping inside occupied structures to avoid odor issues from rodents dying in wall voids. Exterior bait stations may be recommended for ongoing monitoring.
How long to get rid of mice or rats?+
Active trapping typically resolves most infestations within 2-4 weeks. Larger infestations or multiple entry points may take longer. Exclusion is key to permanent results.
