RODENT CONTROL FOR MICE & RATS

 

If you’re hearing scratching in the walls, finding droppings in the garage, or noticing strange smells, you may have a mouse or rat problem. Rodents move fast, reproduce quickly, and cause serious damage to homes if they aren’t handled the right way.

Liberty Pest Services provides professional rodent control for mice and rats throughout San Leandro, Antioch, Brentwood, and East Contra Costa County. We focus on removing the current rodents and stopping new ones from getting inside.

Common Signs of a Rodent Problem

Rodents are usually active at night, which means many homeowners miss the early warning signs.

You may have rodents if you notice:

  • Scratching or running sounds in walls or ceilings

  • Droppings in kitchens, garages, or storage areas

  • Grease rub marks along baseboards and walls

  • Chewed wires, insulation, or cardboard

  • Strong urine or musky odors

One mouse or rat usually means more are already present. Waiting too long can turn a small issue into a costly cleanup.

Why Mice and Rats Are a Serious Issue

Mice and rats don’t just invade homes. They damage them.

Rodents can:

  • Chew electrical wiring and increase fire risk

  • Destroy attic insulation and ducting

  • Contaminate surfaces with urine and droppings

  • Carry diseases and parasites

  • Enter through openings as small as a quarter

DIY traps may catch one rodent, but they don’t solve the real problem if entry points stay open.

Our Rodent Control Process

At Liberty Pest Services, we take a full-solution approach to rodent control.

Our service may include:

  • Detailed inspection of the home and structure

  • Trapping of active mice or rats

  • Identification of entry points and travel paths

  • Sealing and exclusion to prevent re-entry

  • Recommendations for sanitation and prevention

  • Optional cleanup and sanitation for affected areas

This approach helps stop repeat infestations, not just temporary relief.

Rodent Exclusion and Prevention

Exclusion is the most important part of long-term rodent control. We focus on sealing gaps, cracks, and openings where rodents enter, including:

  • Rooflines and eaves

  • Garage doors and utility penetrations

  • Crawl spaces and vents

  • Siding and slab gaps

Without exclusion, rodents will keep coming back no matter how many are trapped.
