Free Rodent Phone Estimate
Finding exactly how they are getting in: the attic, the crawl space, the roofline, the subfloor and the plumbing. You get the entry points and a written price.
What actually happens
It starts on the phone. You tell us what you are hearing, where in the building, and at what time of night, and we tell you what that usually means and what the work would involve. That part is free and it is often enough on its own.
Where the source is not obvious from the call, the next step is the Entry Point Diagnostic, and this is what that involves. A technician goes through the building the way a rodent does: into the attic and the crawl space rather than glancing at them from a hatch, along the roofline and the eaves from outside, and across every point where a pipe, wire or duct passes through the building envelope.
How long it takes depends on the building. Larger properties, or houses where the attic and crawl space are hard to move through, take longer.
What you get at the end is specific: where they are getting in, how many of them there are, how far it has spread into the insulation and ducting, and the scope and pricing for the work. You’ll know the recommended scope of work and pricing before moving forward with the next phase.
Why the call comes first
The call costs nothing and carries no obligation, because we would rather hear the symptoms than quote blind - and because a fair number of these calls end with us telling somebody they have one open vent and no infestation. That is a real outcome and it happens often enough to be worth saying out loud.
It comes first because the order of operations matters. Sealing a building before the rodents inside it are removed traps them in, which turns a rodent problem into a dead-animal problem inside your walls.
The Diagnostic is also where the cleanup gets scoped, contaminated insulation, droppings, nesting material and the ducting, so the whole job is priced once rather than growing halfway through.

Rat Control
Rats get in either over your head or under your feet, depending on the species. Both routes get found, and both get closed.

A mouse fits through a gap the width of a pencil. That is why mice problems come back, the traps worked and the openings never got closed.

Sealing every opening a rodent can use, in steel and mortar. This is the part that ends the problem instead of managing it.

FAQ
Free Rodent Phone Estimate: common questions
Is the phone estimate really free?
Yes. The call costs nothing and carries no obligation. It is a phone estimate rather than a site visit - where the source of the problem is not obvious over the phone, the next step is the Entry Point Diagnostic, and we will tell you what that costs before anything is booked, not on the doorstep.
Do I need to be home?
Not for the phone estimate. For the Entry Point Diagnostic, yes, at least for the walkthrough at the end - the findings are much more useful when we can point at the actual vent or the actual gap rather than describe it in a report.
What if there is nothing to find?
Then we tell you that. A call that ends in "that sounds like one open vent, not an infestation" costs you nothing and is a better result than the alternative. It happens more often than people expect.
How much does rodent control cost?
It depends on how the rodents are getting in, how far the activity has spread, and what has to be repaired to stop it for good. A small, single entry point on a newer home is a different job from an older house with an open crawl space and a contaminated attic.
It starts with a free phone estimate. Where the source is not obvious, the next step is the Entry Point Diagnostic, which is what establishes how they are getting in. You’ll know the recommended scope of work and pricing before moving forward with the next phase.
Do you use poison?
No. We don’t use rodent poison inside your home. Poison can leave a rodent dying in an inaccessible wall or ceiling cavity, creating odor and potentially attracting flies — and it still doesn’t solve the most important problem: how the rodent got inside in the first place.
Our approach is different. We find the entry points and seal them first. Then we use specialized trapping systems and rodent-monitoring cameras in high-activity areas to quickly and efficiently eliminate what remains inside and verify activity has stopped.
Find it. Seal it. Trap & monitor it. Solve it for good.
How do you remove rodents from inside walls and ceilings?
We specialize in fast removal of rodents living inside walls and ceilings. After we locate their entry points and seal them, we strategically deploy our specialized trapping and monitoring systems.
One of those systems is our patented Rat Vac trapping device, which is designed to extract multiple rodents using a single bait setup — with capacity for up to 60 mice or 33 rats.
The rodents are captured in a self-contained system, helping keep the trapping process contained and away from children and pets. We also use rodent-monitoring cameras in high-activity areas to track activity and help confirm when the problem has been eliminated.
No poison in your walls. No guessing. Find the entry point. Seal it. Then get them out — fast.
How long does the whole job take?
Every job is different depending on the entry points, structure of the home, and level of rodent activity. We’ve successfully solved some rodent problems within just a few days, while more complex cases can take a bit longer.
Our goal is to solve your rodent problem for good — all backed by our 100% money-back guarantee.
What does your 100% money-back guarantee mean?
It means we stand behind our work. If you hire us to solve your rodent problem, we confirm the source of the infestation, complete the recommended work, and if we don’t solve the problem, you get your money back.
That’s also why we use rodent-monitoring cameras in high-activity areas. We don’t just set traps and assume the problem is gone — we monitor rodent activity to help verify that the problem has been resolved.
Our goal is simple: find how they’re getting in, seal the entry points, eliminate what remains, and solve the problem for good — all backed by our 100% money-back guarantee.
Guarantee subject to the terms of your service agreement and completion of the recommended scope of work.
Do you handle the cleanup and contaminated insulation?
Yes. Once the rodent problem is resolved, we remove droppings, nesting materials and contaminated insulation where needed. We then clean, sanitize and deodorize affected areas using TwinZyme, our professional-strength enzyme treatment designed to break down rodent-related organic waste and odors.
Insulation can also be replaced where necessary.
We don’t just remove the rodents — we help remove what they left behind.
