01
Inspection
We walk the attic, crawl space, garage, kitchen and exterior perimeter with flashlights and inspection mirrors. We look for droppings, grease rub marks, chewed packaging, nesting material and entry points. A standard single-family inspection takes 45 to 60 minutes, and we show you photos of what we find.
02
Removal Setup
We place snap traps and, where pets or kids are a concern, live catch traps along the runs mice travel. Bait stations with rodenticide bait blocks go in locked, tamper-resistant housings in attics, garages and exterior walls. Setup usually takes one to two hours depending on how many zones we are covering.
03
Follow-Up Checks
We come back at day 3 and day 7 to clear traps, check bait consumption and adjust placement. Mouse activity almost always shifts after the first removal, so the second visit is where we catch the ones that avoided the first set. You do not need to be home for these visits.
04
Exclusion Sealing
Once activity drops, we seal. Copper mesh and steel wool go into gaps around pipes and cables, exclusion sealant closes cracks in block and siding, and we install door sweeps, rodent-proof vent covers and chimney caps. A typical house takes three to five hours to seal properly.
05
Sanitation and Handoff
We remove soiled insulation, vacuum and disinfect contaminated surfaces, and deodorize the attic or crawl space. Before we leave we walk you through what we sealed, what to watch for, and how the warranty works. Most full jobs wrap in 10 to 14 days from first visit to final seal.
