Rodent Control

Rats, mice, and other rodents may be clever, but they're unwelcome guests in your living spaces. These pesky critters are known for their dirty habits and can be found just about everywhere, especially in urban, suburban, and rural areas. Local rodent populations thrive in various regions, posing a constant challenge. But fear not! Mountain Mosquito is here to assist you in addressing any rodent issues you may be experiencing around your home.

Heavy rain, drought, winter cold, and summer heat can drive hungry rats and rodents to seek food and shelter in barns, sheds, roofs, garages, attics, basements, and homes. The best rodent control services aim to prevent them from entering your premises and work to reduce their populations.

Steps to Preventing a Rodent Infestation

​

Rats and mice are attracted to the food, water, and shelter we enjoy, making effective rodent control all about denying access to these essentials. Here are steps to make your home less appealing to rodents and harder for them to access:

​

Maintain a clean kitchen by promptly cleaning up spilled food and water, and store all food in airtight containers.


Use containers with tight-fitting lids for kitchen garbage.


Remove pet food dishes and water when not in use.


Seal any holes, even small ones, in walls between rooms, garage-attic transitions, or outdoor access points. Pay close attention to the back of cupboards, vents, and window casings.


Inspect and ensure the proper fit and condition of vents, especially those along the roof.


Avoid feeding wild birds, as spilled seed can attract rats and mice.


When adding food scraps to the compost, always ensure they are fully covered by turning the compost.


Trim branches that overhang your roof or grow close to it.


Pick up fallen fruit or vegetables in the garden.


Maintain a well-trimmed lawn, prune shrubs, and remove leaf litter and clutter that can provide shelter.


Consider hiring a professional rodent control service, such as your local Mountain Mosquito, to inspect your property and address the rodent population.


Remember, rodents are abundant, intelligent, and determined to survive. Effective rodent control requires ongoing vigilance on your part to secure your spaces against rats and mice.

What's Included in Our Rodent Control Services?

​

Mountain Mosquito offers a comprehensive rodent control service that safeguards your home and property from these unwanted intruders. We already provide outstanding outdoor pest control services, including mosquito control and flea and tick treatments, and now we extend our expertise to protect your home from rodents. Our approach concentrates on controlling rodent populations and blocking their access to your home.

Rats and mice can cause structural damage and carry fleas, ticks, allergens, and disease pathogens. Deceased rodents can also pose hazards to your family, attracting other insects as they decay. Unlike traditional rodent control methods, which may involve rodenticides, Mountain Mosquito employs natural, environmentally friendly rodent control solutions.

​

Are Chemicals Used in Rodent Control?

​

Mountain Mosquito's rodent control services do not involve the use of rodenticides that risk leaving dead rodents inside your home. Instead, we utilize a liquid rodent repellent to manage rodent populations and establish a protective barrier around your home. Our goal is to prevent rodents from accessing your home altogether by blocking their typical entry points and addressing any property issues that may attract them.
