Do You Have a Rodent Problem? Know the Signs

Rodents are mostly active at night and excellent at hiding. By the time you see one, a colony is likely already established. Look for:

✔  Droppings — small, dark pellets found along walls, in cabinets, under sinks, or near food
✔  Gnaw marks — chewed wood, plastic, food packaging, or wiring — rodents gnaw constantly
✔  Scratching or scurrying sounds — especially in walls, ceilings, or under floors at night
✔  Nesting materials — shredded paper, insulation, or fabric found in hidden corners
✔  Grease marks or smudge trails — dark smear marks along walls and baseboards from rodent fur
✔  Footprints or tail drag marks — visible in dusty areas like attics, basements, and garages
✔  Damaged food packaging — chewed bags, boxes, or containers in pantries or storage areas

Rodents breed rapidly with a single pair of mice producing up to 60 offspring per year. Early action is essential.

Why Traps Alone Aren't Enough

Hardware store traps and poison bait stations can reduce numbers but they don't solve the root problem: rodents are entering your home through gaps, cracks, and openings you haven't found. Without sealing these entry points, new rodents will replace the ones you catch indefinitely. Our integrated approach combines population control with structural exclusion to deliver a permanent solution.

Our Step by Step Rodent Control Process

• 1. Thorough Inspection: We inspect the interior and exterior of your property to locate all rodent activity, entry points, nesting areas, and travel routes. We check the foundation, roofline, utility penetrations, and more.
• 2. Customized Treatment Plan: Based on the inspection, we develop a targeted plan identifying the species (mice vs. rats), the severity of the infestation, and the best combination of trapping and bait placement.
• 3. Trapping & Baiting: We deploy professional-grade snap traps, bait stations, and/or tamper-resistant rodenticide in strategic locations along travel paths, near entry points, and in nesting areas.
• 4. Exclusion & Entry Point Sealing: We seal identified entry points using steel wool, hardware cloth, caulk, and expanding foam made of materials rodents cannot chew through. This is the most critical step for long-term control.
• 5. Follow-Up & Monitoring: We return to check traps, remove rodents, and monitor for any new activity. We continue until the infestation is confirmed eliminated.

Rodent Pest Control Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do rodents get into my home?
A: Mice can enter through gaps as small as a dime (6mm), and rats through holes the size of a quarter (12mm). Common entry points include gaps around pipes, vents, utility lines, roof edges, and foundation cracks.
‍
Q: Is rodent bait safe for children and pets?
A: We use tamper-resistant bait stations that are inaccessible to children and pets. All products are Health Canada-registered and approved, and placed according to strict safety protocols. We'll walk you through placement locations during the service.
‍
Q: How long does rodent control take?
A: Active infestations typically require 2–3 service visits over 1–2 weeks. Exclusion work is completed on the initial or second visit depending on the scope of entry points found. We do advise to keep regular follow-up visits to re-bait stations and monitor infestation level.
‍
Q: Do you handle rats and mice differently?
A: Yes. Rats and mice have different behaviours, nesting habits, and bait preferences. Our technicians identify the species during inspection and tailor the treatment accordingly.
‍
Q: What about rodents in my attic or crawl space?
A: These are very common harborage areas. We treat attics, crawl spaces, basements, and garages as part of our standard service. Cleanup of nesting materials and droppings can also be arranged.
