Rodent Control

Rodent behavior and activity often fluctuate with the seasons, making seasonal rodent control essential for year-round protection. During colder months, rats and mice are more likely to seek warmth and shelter indoors, while warmer months may bring increased rodent activity outdoors as they search for food sources. At Alta Pest Control, we tailor our rodent treatments to adapt to these seasonal patterns, ensuring that your property remains secure no matter the time of year.

Our seasonal approach starts with targeted baiting and trapping to manage rodent populations effectively. We then conduct follow-up inspections to identify any potential entry points that could invite rodents inside as the weather shifts. If entry points are found, we’ll recommend exclusion work to seal these areas, providing long-term prevention and keeping rodents where they belong—outside.

Whether it’s setting up bait stations in early winter to prevent indoor infestations or reinforcing exclusion methods in spring to curb outdoor activity, Alta Pest Control’s seasonal treatments offer proactive solutions. By adapting our services to seasonal trends, we provide the comprehensive protection you need to keep rodents at bay all year.

Alta Pest Control’s rodent bait station service begins with an initial inspection by one of our trained technicians. During this visit, the technician thoroughly examines your property to identify any signs of rodent activity, such as droppings, chew marks, and possible entry points. With this information, we develop a targeted plan, determining the best locations for traps and bait stations to effectively intercept rodents where they are most active.

We strategically place both sticky traps and locked bait stations around these high-activity areas. Our bait stations are specially designed to attract and eliminate rodents safely and effectively while keeping pets and children safe. Each bait station is tamper-resistant, ensuring that only rodents can access the bait inside and that they cannot escape once inside. Sticky traps provide an additional layer of control, capturing rodents that may avoid bait stations or take alternative routes within your property.

Our professional-grade bait is carefully selected to be highly attractive to rodents, encouraging them to enter the bait stations instead of seeking shelter or food sources within your home. This targeted baiting approach is highly effective at reducing rodent populations, without requiring you to manage the complexity of choosing the right traps or baits on your own.

With Alta Pest Control, you can trust that your rodent problem will be handled with expertise and safety. Our bait station service is just one part of our comprehensive approach to rodent control, which may also include exclusion work and follow-up treatments as needed to keep your property rodent-free.

At Alta Pest Control, we offer tailored rodent exclusion services at an additional cost designed to protect your home from rodent intrusions. Our comprehensive approach covers all levels of potential entry points, giving you options based on your home’s needs and your preferences for coverage. Here’s how our two levels of rodent exclusions work:

Our Ground Level Exclusions are ideal for properties needing coverage from ground-level rodent entry without sealing the entire structure. This service addresses entry points below the eaves, generally up to 10–12 feet from the ground.

• Filling Gaps and Cracks: We seal ground-level cracks, crevices, and holes where rodents commonly find entry.
• Weep Hole Sealing: We secure all weep holes with durable mesh or carpenter’s cloth, closing off these small but accessible entry points.
• Garage Door Seals: We seal the sides of garage doors, a common entry point for rodents.
• Utility Entry Points: All areas where cords, pipes, or plumbing enter the home are sealed to block access.
• Bait Box Placement: Strategically placed bait boxes around the property help draw rodents away from your home.

Please note: Ground Level Exclusions do not come with a warranty.

• Complete Roof and Eave Sealing: We seal all eaves and roof access points to close off high-entry areas.
• Garage Door Seals: Like with our ground-level exclusions, we secure garage door sides to prevent rodent entry.
• Ground Level Protection: Ground-level cracks and crevices are filled, and we secure weep holes with high-quality mesh or carpenter cloth.
• Attic Care: We address all trails, tunnels, and scent trails left behind by rodents in your attic. This includes a cleanup and sanitization of the attic space.
• Traps for Immediate Control: We place 2-5 traps with bait, such as Bromadiolone, to target any remaining rodents.
• Follow-Up Visits: We provide two-week follow-up inspections until the issue is fully resolved.
• Warranty for Peace of Mind: Full Exclusions come with a one-year warranty on rodent exclusion, ensuring a long-term solution.

For more extreme infestations or added peace of mind, we offer optional add-ons:

• Garage Door Seals: If a custom seal is needed, we work with you to ensure approval, although we encourage customers to check with their garage door provider if additional customization is desired.
• Excluder Lights: In severe cases, we may use strobe lights to deter pests such as squirrels, raccoons, possums, or rats before sealing entry points.
• Lifetime Warranty: Available only with Full Exclusions, a lifetime warranty option offers the highest level of assurance against future rodent entry.

Rats and mice can enter buildings through tiny gaps, often gnawing through wood or even climbing onto windowsills to access warm, sheltered spaces. Once inside, these pests can cause structural damage, contaminate food sources, and create serious health risks through their droppings and urine, which can lead to allergies and respiratory issues.

• Damage Risks: Mice and rats not only damage food storage but can also chew through wires, risking electrical fires. Their urine can corrode metal, and they may bring allergies or respiratory issues.
• Entry Points: Rodents are skilled at entering through foundation gaps, sewer systems, and small openings around porches or sidewalks.

If you hear scratching sounds, notice chew marks, or find droppings, it’s time to bring in professional help. Our team identifies the type of rodent, so you don’t need to worry about distinguishing between mice and rats or choosing trap sizes. We use bait stations and sticky traps, providing the expertise needed for effective, long-term control without the guesswork.

Let Alta Pest Control handle your rodent control needs with our comprehensive approach, ensuring a rodent-free environment so you can have peace of mind.

You can use different rodent control strategies to prevent further increasing rodent populations inside your home. There are three main types of rodenticides. Namely, these are:

• Initial Inspection: We start with a thorough inspection to assess rodent activity and identify any entry points.
• Bait Stations & Traps: We set up bait stations and sticky traps in key areas to effectively control the rodent population. Our tamper-resistant bait stations ensure that bait is securely contained, safe for both family and pets.
• Follow-Up Exclusion Work: After controlling the active rodent population, our technicians check for entry points, sealing them to prevent future invasions. This exclusion work is essential to keep rodents on the outside.
• Scent Removal: Finally, we eliminate scent markers left by rodents, which can attract new ones to your property. Removing these traces helps ensure that rodents won’t be drawn back to your home or business.
