Understanding Your Rodent Problem

Rodents, including rats and mice, are not just a nuisance but a health hazard and a risk to your property. They can carry diseases, contaminate food, and cause structural damage. Recognizing signs of an infestation, such as droppings, gnaw marks, and odd noises, is crucial for timely intervention.

Types of Rodents We Handle

House Mouse
The house mouse is a small, adaptable rodent, typically gray in color with a lighter underbelly. Common in homes, they can cause significant damage by gnawing on wires, wood, and food containers. Their rapid breeding and tendency to contaminate food sources with droppings and urine make them a persistent nuisance and a health hazard, as they can spread diseases like salmonella and hantavirus.
White-Footed Mouse
The white-footed mouse, identifiable by its white feet and underbelly, is a common woodland rodent often encroaching on rural and suburban homes. They are known for their role in spreading Lyme disease, as they are carriers of deer ticks. These mice can damage property by chewing on materials and wiring, and their nesting habits can lead to insulation damage.
Deer Mice
Deer mice are small, with brown fur and white underbellies and feet. They prefer wooded areas but often enter homes in search of food and shelter. Deer mice are notorious for spreading the potentially fatal Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome through their droppings and urine. They can also cause significant property damage by chewing through materials and contaminating stored food.
Norway Rats
The Norway rat, also known as the brown rat, is larger than most other rodent species and has a shaggy brown coat. These rats are known for their burrowing habits, which can undermine building foundations and cause structural damage. They are also notorious for chewing through electrical wires, plumbing, and other materials, posing fire hazards and potential water damage. Additionally, Norway rats can spread diseases, including leptospirosis and rat-bite fever.
Roof Rat
Roof rats, also known as black rats, are smaller and sleeker than Norway rats, with a black or dark brown coat. They are excellent climbers and often infest attics, roofs, and upper floors of buildings, hence their name. Roof rats can cause severe damage by gnawing on wires, leading to electrical fires, and damaging roof materials. They are also carriers of various diseases, including typhus and jaundice, and can contaminate food sources.

I was really impressed with this company. We have had ongoing issues with rodents (mice and rats) getting into both our crawlspace and our attic. We could not figure out where they were coming from! Enter Freedom Wildlife. Ken came out and did a super thorough inspection, crawling all around our crawlspace, exploring our attic, getting on the roof, and doing a full inspection of the perimeter of the house. He gave a very detailed overview of all the ways they could be getting in and sent over a quote. He then very patiently answered a bunch of follow up questions over email as we decided what we wanted to do. When it came to doing the work, David and Matt were excellent. They arrived on time, were very thorough and meticulous in their work, and did a great job of documenting everything they did. Everything looks like it was done with care. Thanks to all three for providing a great service! It’s surprisingly hard to find companies that offer rodent exclusion services instead of just ongoing trapping/poisoning, and I am so grateful I found a company that does it (and does it well)!

Kenny and two other crews did great job for rats/mice removal for us , very friendly, very professional ! Highly recommend!

Freedom Wildlife solved a persistent rodent problem we had. They identified where they believed the mice were entering the house (from the roof), then closed off the places of entry. It has now been four months, including the onset of colder weather, and, fingers crossed, we are mice free. This company is honest, skilled, and professional. I highly recommend them.

Rodent Control Frequently Asked Questions

What rodents do you handle?

We commonly handle rodents such as mice, rats, roof rats, Norway rats, and other nuisance rodents that invade homes and businesses. During an inspection, we identify the species involved and recommend the most effective removal and prevention approach.

How do rodents get into homes and buildings?

Rodents can enter through very small gaps and openings, including:

Gaps around doors and windows
Utility and pipe penetrations
Rooflines, soffits, and vents
Foundation cracks

Once inside, they seek food, warmth, and nesting areas, especially in attics, crawl spaces, and wall voids.

Do you use traps or bait for rodent control?

Our rodent control approach is strategy-based, not one-size-fits-all. Depending on the situation, we may use:

Trapping
Bait stations
Exclusion and sealing

In many cases, removal and exclusion are prioritized to stop the problem at its source and reduce long-term risk.

How long does rodent control take?

The timeline depends on factors such as:

Rodent species
Population size
Structure type
Entry points and conditions

Some situations can be resolved quickly, while others require ongoing monitoring and follow-up to ensure all activity has stopped.

Is rodent control a one-time service?

Rodent control often involves multiple steps, including inspection, removal, and prevention. While some situations may be resolved without ongoing service, many rodent issues require follow-up visits to confirm activity has stopped and entry points are secured.

Do you seal entry points to prevent rodents from coming back?

Yes. Exclusion work is a critical part of effective rodent control. Once rodents are removed, sealing entry points helps prevent future infestations and protects the structure long-term.

Are rodent control treatments safe for pets and children?

Safety is a priority. We use professional-grade equipment and materials and follow best practices to reduce risks to people and pets. Our technicians will explain any precautions needed based on the treatment plan used.

Can rodents cause damage to my home or business?

Yes. Rodents can:

Damage insulation and wiring
Chew structural components
Contaminate surfaces with droppings and urine
Create fire hazards by gnawing on electrical wires

Prompt rodent control helps limit damage and reduce health risks.

How do I know if I have a rodent problem?

Common signs of rodent activity include:

Scratching or scurrying noises
Droppings
Gnaw marks
Nesting materials
Unusual odors

If you notice any of these signs, a professional inspection is recommended.
