The house mouse, one of the most detrimental pests in the United States, is second only to humans as the most common mammal in cities across the nation. House mice are notorious nibblers who climb, jump, and swim in order to get to their favorite foods, which are often found in houses, farms, open fields, and commercial buildings. They are curious and fearless creatures that will chew through walls, electrical cables, and storage containers in order to get what they want.

How to Get Rid of Mice

Critter Control specializes in mice removal and control. Mouse contro begins with a thorough inspection to determine how severe the problem is. The more established mice are, the more involved the control process will be. 

When approaching a rodent removal plan, the key to long-term success is to consider the entire mouse population. A few mouse traps won't solve the problem. A comprehensive plan will include careful inspection, trapping, removal, exclusion, prevention, and clean up. The goal is to exterminate the current infestation, prevent future issues, and reclaim a sanitary environment. Here’s a breakdown of the thorough process:

With the reproductive rate of these animals sitting like a ticking time bomb in your home, a comprehensive mouse control program is necessary.

Home Inspection for Mice

During a rodent inspection, our inspector will thoroughly inspect your attic as well as provide a full exterior home inspection. The most common signs of rodent activity are chewing, droppings, rub marks, nesting material, and small entry points.

Mouse Traps & Mice Removal

Based on the inspection, our wildlife specialist creates a strategic trapping plan to remove the mice found in your home. Types of traps, placement of traps, and bait used in traps determines the effectiveness of rodent trapping.

Our wildlife specialist will ensure to use the most efficient and safe removal process for your home. Though the standard trapping/removal duration is normally between 5 to 14 days, the trapping process may be longer if the rodents are well established.

Mouse Control: Exclusion & Habitat Modification 

Rodent exclusion is the best way to prevent mice from entering your home, but many homeowners do not protect their home until they have experienced a nuisance animal. After rodent removal, it is essential to repair any entry points on your home. 

Habitat Modification to Prevent Mice 

Remove trees or branches close to your roof and keep your property clear of debris can help to keep your property rodent free. Rodents love clutter and will use debris for nesting material.

Keep your garage door closed as much as possible, especially at dark. Garages are often used as storage spaces, and rodents will take advantage of any food they can get to or any items that can be used for nesting.

Additional Rodent Removal Services

Critter Control also offers recurring services to keep your home protected and under warranty.
In addition, Critter Control provides warranty options as well as an estimate for preventative services to keep your home free future rodent problems.

It is found almost anywhere people are, feeding on human food, sheltering in human structures, and reproducing at a remarkable rate. It is the most troublesome and economically important vertebrate pest, contaminating untold millions of dollars worth of food, damaging possessions, and causing electrical fires with its constant gnawing.

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.

I saw the Critter Control guy leave my backyard, but my bait station doesn’t look like it’s been touched for years. Aren’t they supposed to open it up and refill it? I haven’t had mice, but I don’t know if that is because the Critter Control system is working, or just luck.

We appreciated the quick response and the careful service by David Gleason. He explained each step of the process. He also returned to reset traps that had been sprung. He was professional and friendly. We highly recommend Critter Control.

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.
