The Rodent Problems We Can Address
Our licensed and insured rodent control specialists have decades of experience eliminating Central Massachusetts' most common rodent invaders, including the following.
- Mice– The common house mouse is one of the most troublesome pests in the region. Beyond the noise and unsettling sightings, mice leave dark, rice-like droppings and gnaw on everything from stored items to electrical wiring, creating fire hazards and causing extensive damage.
- Rats– Often found around farms, gardens, and open fields, rats can quickly invade homes and buildings. These incredibly invasive rodents are even more destructive than mice, leaving larger tooth marks on wood and contaminating food sources.
- Moles and voles – While moles are insect-eating mammals and voles are herbivorous rodents, both can wreak havoc on lawns and landscaping. Voles damage grass, bulbs, trees, and plant roots while creating visible runways. Moles tunnel through yards in search of worms and grubs, leaving behind telltale mounds and damaged turf.
Our rodent control methods combine effective exclusion techniques, trapping, baiting, and preventative strategies, all of which we tailor to our customers’ unique situations. When you hire us, we’ll develop a custom treatment approach to deliver immediate relief and keep rodents out for good.
Common Signs of Rodent Infestations
Rodent infestations rarely stay hidden for long. Watch for these telltale signs:
- Droppings – Small, dark droppings resembling grains of rice indicate mouse activity; larger droppings suggest rats
- Gnaw marks – Chewed wood, wiring, insulation, or stored items show active feeding
- Scratching sounds – Noises in walls, ceilings, or attics, especially at night
- Nesting materials – Shredded paper, fabric, or insulation in hidden areas
- Grease marks – Dark smudges along walls where rodents repeatedly travel
- Visible tunnels or runways – Signs of mole or vole activity in your yard
If you notice any of these signs, don't delay. The longer rodents remain, the more damage they cause and the faster they reproduce.
