Question 1

How do I get rid of rodents in my house fast?

Accepted Answer

The first thing we have to do is figure out how rodents are getting into your house in the first place. This allows us to block off their entry points. From there, we use humane bait and traps to get all of the rodents humanely captured for removal.

We take them far from your property and release them into the wild where they won’t be harmed or do harm.

Question 2

How do you keep rats and rodents from coming back?

Accepted Answer

Sealing up all the entry points can help, but there are things you can do as well.
For example, many people get rats or rodents because they don’t do a good job of keeping outdoor garbage bins secured. This attracts them in the first place. Then they target the attic, where insulation and a lack of human traffic provides them with a warm, dry nesting environment.

If you feed birds then you need to use a feeder basket and reduce the amount of food you’re using. Try to put in just enough to feed the birds during the day, ensuring nothing at all is left behind at night.

Question 3

What is the average cost of rodent control?

Accepted Answer

Rodent control can cost anywhere from $300 to $500 for an average sized home. We’re coming in, investigating every nook and cranny, getting everything sealed off, and getting the rodents trapped and removed. We also provide additional services. For example, we can also assist with sanitizing, cleaning up and fixing the damage the rats have done. We also guarantee that when we come to your house, those pesky rodents don’t come back. You don’t even have to adopt a cat to keep them away. Stop the swarm before it gets any worse. Contact us sooner than later and request a free home inspection today!

Question 4

How do we get squirrels out of your attic?

Accepted Answer

We use live traps to capture them. That's the only way to get them...they're persistent little creatures. Yet we also take and recommend some steps to keep them from coming back. For example, a lot of squirrels get in through the fascia. The gutter acts as a highway to get them there. Gutter guards can be extremely helpful in this regard (try Flo Free if you'd like to avoid the headaches gutter guards can add to biannual cleanings). Next, we recommend trimming tree branches that overhang the roof line, since that's another way squirrels get tempted to enter your home. Meanwhile, when we're done trapping the squirrels we'll figure out where they're entering, seal up those access points, and relocate your squirrels over 10 miles away so they won't try to get back into the cozy spots they remember. You'll still see them all over your yard...there's no avoiding it...but the ones you'll be seeing haven't tasted your house yet, and won't be able to get in thanks to our sealing efforts.

Question 5

What do squirrels hate the most?

Accepted Answer

There are a lot of myths that say you can get rid of squirrels with bright lights, loud music, or apple cider vinegar. None of these methods work. The only way to get squirrels out of your attic is to call a professional to trap them. Squirrels have a pretty high tolerance for almost anything if they have found a safe spot to bear and raise young. Your attic is it...no matter how bright or noisy it may be.

Question 6

How much does it cost to get rid of squirrels?

Accepted Answer

The average squirrel removal job costs anywhere from $200 to $3000. Much depends on the size of both your house and of the infestation. Commercial squirrel removal certainly costs the most. Control costs by calling us as soon as you suspect you have a squirrel problem. If you start hearing unusual noises, smell foul odors, or find squirrel droppings then you probably should make the call right away. Call today to request an inspection. We'll tell you exactly what it takes to show those squirrels the door.

Question 7

What are the signs of a rat infestation?

Accepted Answer

You can usually hear rats, and you'll typically hear them at night. You'll most often hear them moving in the attic or on the roof. You may hear scratching or scampering noises. You can also check the attic itself for droppings. You'll tend to see a lot of them. You might see dark, heavy stains in pathways that rats are traveling frequently. Droppings look like little grains of dark brown rice to twice that size. Rats have very oily bodies and they rub against certain surfaces as they travel, leaving oily, unpleasant stains. If you're seeing them in open areas then the swarm has grown very large and you need immediate help. If the rat swarm grows too large, they might grow bold enough to start entering areas humans frequent, and you'll start seeing them face to face.

Question 8

How do rat exterminators get rid of rats?

Accepted Answer

First, we'll find and block off their access points so they stop getting into the house. Without taking this step no other control methods will be effective. Once this is done, we can turn to the rats inside of your home. We use humane traps to get rid of your rat problem, removing them safely from your home. From there it will be time to clean up their droppings. We use safe, non-toxic disinfectants to scrub away their leavings. We also get rid of any nests they've built and entirely sanitize attic spaces where they dwell.

Question 9

How much does it cost to get rid of rats?

Accepted Answer

The cost will depend on the size of your building and the size of the infestation. We've done jobs for as little as $169 and it can range to over $1000. Commercial rat removal services tend to cost the most. One way you can control the cost of rat removal services is by calling us as quickly as possible. The longer the rats have to breed, the more expensive it becomes to remove them.
