Rodent Control Services for Homeowners — Mice & Rats

Scratching in the walls at night, gnaw marks on stored boxes, and droppings in the pantry are all signs that mice or rats have moved into your home. As outdoor temperatures drop each fall, rodents actively search for warm indoor shelter. Call Pest Control 911 connects homeowners with local professionals who locate entry points, remove existing rodents, and help prevent re-entry.

Signs You May Need Rodent Control

  • Scratching sounds: Noise in walls, attics, or ceilings, especially at night.
  • Droppings: Small, dark droppings found in pantries, drawers, or along baseboards.
  • Gnaw marks: Chewed wiring, cardboard, or wood trim near entry points.
  • Grease marks: Dark smudges along walls and baseboards where rodents repeatedly travel.

Could It Be Something Other Than a Rodent?

Noises overhead during the day, or thumping that sounds heavier than a mouse, often turn out to be squirrels or raccoons, which need a wildlife provider rather than rodent treatment — see wildlife removal. Rodents around a home can also draw snakes looking for food; if you have seen one, see snake removal.

Why This Is Common in Homes

Cold winters drive mice and rats to seek shelter inside homes, garages, and outbuildings. Older foundations, gaps around utility lines, and unsealed crawl spaces common in older housing all provide easy rodent entry points.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have mice or rats?
Rats leave larger droppings and gnaw marks than mice, and typically require different trapping and exclusion approaches — a local professional can confirm which you are dealing with.
Why are rodents worse during the fall and winter?
As outdoor temperatures fall, rodents instinctively seek warm, sheltered spaces indoors, making fall and winter the most active season for indoor rodent activity.
Can rodent entry points be sealed to prevent them from returning?
Local professionals connected through our network can identify common entry points and provide recommendations to help reduce re-entry.
