Scratching in the attic at night is almost always roof rats working the roofline, while ground-level droppings near the pantry usually mean house mice — our technicians identify the species before setting a single trap.
A technician walks the roofline, foundation, and utility penetrations to find every gap a rodent could be using, not just the obvious one.


Every technician handling Taft Heights rodent calls carries state licensing and full liability coverage for both trapping and exclusion work.
Rodent calls in Taft Heights get prioritized scheduling since a small mouse problem can become a breeding population within weeks.
Pricing is quoted after inspection and covers both removal and the exclusion work needed to keep rodents from returning.
We use snap traps, tamper-resistant bait stations, hardware cloth, and steel wool for permanent gap sealing.
Roof rats travel roofline, eaves, and attic spaces, so trapping is placed along their actual travel paths, not just on the attic floor.
We inspect crawl spaces and foundation perimeters specifically for Norway rat burrow entrances.
Snap traps go along interior travel routes — usually baseboards and cabinet edges — where mouse activity is heaviest.
Trapping without sealing just invites the next rodent in — we close every identified gap with steel wool, hardware cloth, and sealant.
Commercial rodent accounts get recurring exterior station checks documented for compliance records.
After removal, we can address contaminated insulation and droppings left behind in the attic.
