Identify the activity
Trap placement is based on the areas where rodents are actually traveling or feeding.
Rodent Trapping & Removal
Remove What’s Inside After You Close the Way In.
Trapping and proofing solve two different problems. Proofing closes the way in; trapping removes rodents that may still be inside.
What we look for
Rodent Trapping & Removal
The inspection is about connecting what you are hearing or seeing inside with the openings that may exist outside.
The number of traps and follow-up visits depends on the activity we find and what is included in your estimate.

Where this fits
A service should make sense in the whole rodent-proofing plan.
The work changes by home, but the order is consistent: understand the activity, address the access and handle what remains.
Close the access
Trapping works best as part of a plan that also addresses the openings allowing new rodents in.
Follow up
Return visits are used when included to check traps and decide whether more activity remains.
Questions
About Rodent Trapping & Removal
The exact work depends on the home, the entry points and the areas we can safely access.
Is proofing the same as trapping?+
No. Trapping deals with rodents already inside. Proofing addresses how they got in. When activity is ongoing, the two may be used together.
Do I still need trapping if the openings are sealed?+
Sometimes. Rodents may still be inside after the entry points are closed. When trapping is needed, it can be included as a separate part of the job.
How many trap checks are included?+
The number of traps and follow-up visits depends on the activity we find and what is listed in your estimate.
What happens during a rodent entry point inspection?+
We check accessible areas of the roofline, attic, garage and exterior for signs of rats or mice and the openings they may be using. We explain what we find and use those findings to build the recommended scope.
Do you inspect the roof and attic?+
When those areas can be safely accessed, yes. Rooflines, vents, coves, attic spaces and garage-to-attic connections are often important parts of a rodent inspection.
Will you show me the entry points you find?+
Yes. We explain the problem areas we identify and use photos where appropriate so you can understand what needs to be sealed.
