Venice Rodent Removal

Rodents are infamous throughout history for their ability to transmit disease and cause damage wherever they go. While there is little danger of the black plague happening again any time soon, rodents can still be a scary thing to deal with when they are on your property or in your home. Luckily, Critter Control® of Sarasota is one of the premier rodent removal solutions in the Venice area, and our technicians are here to help.

How to Tell If You Have Rodents

  • Droppings - Rodents are always looking for something to eat or chew on, which means they also create a lot of waste. If rodents are in your home, you will likely spot their small, black droppings. They are typically around ¼” long and usually found along the walls or in the attic, basement, or other common nesting areas.
  • Nests - Nests are another common sign of the presence of rodents. They are typically found in out-of-the-way places like the attic, basement, garage, or even inside of walls. They can be made of shredded paper, attic insulation, cardboard, or chewed up wood scraps.
  • Gnawing Marks - Keep an eye on exposed wood around your house. Because rodents love to chew, they will sink their teeth into important wood structures around your house, base boards, cabinets, and even electrical wiring in some cases. If you see bite marks on these items, a rodent problem is the likely culprit.
  • Strange Pet Behavior - in some ways, animals have much more acute senses than humans. If cats or dogs around your home have been acting strange, pointing at seemingly random areas, or seem overly interested in entrances to your attic or garage, there could be unwelcome rodent intruders.

Venice Squirrel Removal

Since 1983, Critter Control® of Sarasota has built a reputation as the premier wildlife control and squirrel removal solution in the Venice area. Over time we have created strategies for ridding residential and commercial properties of nuisance squirrels in an efficient and environmentally-friendly way. Not only do our services rid your property of squirrels, but we also take measures to ensure nuisance wildlife doesn’t return in the future, giving you the peace of mind you deserve.

Squirrel Characteristics

Though they aren’t aggressive and don’t share the same negative stigma that rats and mice have, squirrels pose their own problems for Venice residents. They’ve been known to run along power lines which can cause transformers to short out, they love gnawing on wiring, building nests inside of attics, and generally making messes that can be costly to clean up. If you’re someone who keeps a bird feeder or bird house on your property, know that squirrels see these as easy targets and will steal seed from feeders and raid bird houses whenever possible. These characteristics are good reasons to call a professional wildlife control company that can quickly and permanently rid you of nuisance squirrels.

Do You Have a Squirrel Problem?

The first step in removing squirrels is identifying when you have a problem. Ask yourself the following questions:
  • Do you hear squeaking or scratching noises coming from your ceiling or walls?
  • Are your bird feeders being depleted faster than usual?
  • Have you noticed holes in your home’s siding, gutters, soffits, or flashing?
If you’ve experienced any of the above, consider calling one of our squirrel removal specialists today.

Common Rat Traits

Rats typically won’t charge at humans or go out of their way to bite, but they pose a problem in other ways. Rats love to chew on pretty much anything they can get ahold of, including structural wood components inside of buildings, electrical systems, and even some types of roofing materials in order to keep their constantly-growing teeth trimmed to length. They will also build nests in Venice attics using insulation, ruining it in the process. These behaviors, combined with how unsanitary rats are, make for a good reason to call the specialists at Critter Control® of Sarasota.

Are Rats in Your Home?

When determining if you have rats in your home or not, ask yourself the following:
  • Is there a foul smell of urine or solid waste coming from the walls or ceiling?
  • Have you noticed signs of chewing or biting on wood surfaces or food containers?
  • Do you hear squeaking or scratching sounds coming from your walls or ceiling?

Venice Mice Removal

For residential and commercial properties alike, mice are tiny critters that can cause big problems. Regardless of how cute they may be, or the fact that some people keep them as pets, the reality is that mice can cause damage and spread bacteria if they nest in a home or office. Mice removal is important, but it is something that should be done by a professional. Mice are skilled in finding even the tiniest openings in a building foundation or wall, and can squeeze through holes as small as ¼” in diameter.

The Signs of an Infestation

You may have mice on your property if:
  • You begin hearing squeaking, scratching, or the pitter-patter of footsteps coming from your walls or ceiling
  • You begin to smell a foul, ammonia-like odor from mouse urine, or spot the small pellet-like droppings that mice leave behind
  • You notice bite marks on food containers in your kitchen
If you do have mice on your hands, it is important to handle the issue before they are able to cause extensive damage.

Getting Rid of Mice

There are plenty of DIY methods available online for getting rid of, and excluding mice from a building. However, mice can be difficult to remove and are more intelligent than they seem, therefore, professional removal is the most effective option.

We Can Help

The team at Critter Control® of Sarasota is well versed in all forms of mice removal, and we can get your home back in top shape in no time. Call us today at 800-274-8837 with questions about our mice removal services or to schedule your complimentary consultation.

Great people to work with!

John with CC has helped us twice in the last six years - first with a minor mouse problem, and then in troubleshooting a mystery animal that was raising a ruckus on the roof. In each case he was friendly, professional, and offered excellent guidance on the practical solutions. Highly recommend him, and this company.

Cannot say enough wonderful things about this company and Joe especially. We recently found a bat in our basement…SCARY! Called and asked for help, Joe came out at 8pm and was able to search the house, capture the bat safely and removed it from our home. His customer service was priceless to me and I highly recommend this company to everyone. Post visit he even sent a team to further assess our property and provide a quote for future needs.

Bryan was great. On time, professional, friendly. Most importantly, honest. No lies, no fear tactics, no gimmicks. Assessed the issue and was honest about the lack of work that actually needed to be done/was recommended, knowing that other places had dramatized and given several thousand dollar (4k+) estimates on a job that costs a couple hundred dollars. Can't recommend enough. Will be using for any future issues.

I’ve been using them for several years now. They are great!

Removed bats from our house and sealed up other areas of concern. Very responsive, explained things throughly to us, and did the work in a very timely manner. Much better than their two competitors that we also called. I would highly recommend them.

We have been having issues in our yard, and recently discovered large holes. Called this team, they immediately came out and determined the holes were partially exposed mole tunnels. They took care of the tunnels (as best they could), and trapped and caught a mole for removal. They were responsive, knowledgeable, and thorough. While I hope it is not needed - we would certainly reach out to them again should a need arise!
