Rodent Control Solutions to Remove Rats & Mice

If you’re hearing scratching noises in your walls or noticing foul, unexplainable odors, you could have a rodent problem on your hands. Unfortunately, rats and mice could be hiding anywhere in your home, from your basement to inside your walls. In addition to causing damage, they can threaten your health with the germs they transmit. Rodents often chew through wires, wood, and insulation, leading to costly repairs and potential fire hazards. DIY rodent control is difficult, so teaming up with a professional pest control exterminator is essential.

Baiting and Trapping

Baiting and trapping are among the most common methods for controlling rodents. Baited traps attract mice or rats using food or scents that appeal to them, effectively luring them into traps. This method works best when properly placed in high-activity areas like basements, kitchens, or attics. While it can help reduce the rodent population, trapping alone often doesn’t address the root cause of the infestation, making professional intervention critical for long-term success.

Rodent Exclusion & Sealing Entry Points

Rodent exclusion involves identifying and sealing potential entry points where rats and mice sneak into your home. This might include sealing cracks around doors, windows, and utility lines or reinforcing vulnerable areas like the attic and foundation. Exclusion is a highly effective prevention method because it cuts off the rodents’ access, minimizing the chances of future infestations. However, successful exclusion often requires a detailed inspection and expert knowledge to locate and secure all potential access points.

Rodenticides and Bait Stations

Rodenticides are chemicals used to eliminate rodent populations. They are typically placed inside secure bait stations to prevent accidental exposure to children or pets. While rodenticides are highly adequate for large-scale infestations, they should always be handled by a professional, as misuse can lead to unintended consequences, such as secondary poisoning of non-target animals. Bait stations allow for a controlled release of poison, targeting rodents while keeping other wildlife safe.
