"They came out right away and then scheduled the time to come treat our house shortly thereafter. They had a crew and even treated the second floor of the wall that was termite damaged for extra treatment. As a result, we have been using them for pest control since. I definitely recommend them for termite treatment."

"We heard some scratching coming from the attic and one of the wires run through the attic was chewed through. Investigation by our pest control company confirmed: we had rats! Sadly, our pest control company only baited but did not dispose of dead rats nor did they look to abate any further infestation. So, we called Critter Control out to take a look. Within about 24 hours, they were in our house looking for ways for the little vermin to get in. They also found 3 dead rats that had stumbled and died within our crawl space. They provided a written estimate for the cost to and quot;patchand quot; up the house and took care of the dead rats. The cost for the rat removal seemed a little high, but it's not that much when considering you don't have to deal with a bloated dead rat! The patching estimate seemed about on-par with other quotes received. We will likely be using them to complete the job! <br />"

A lot of modern homes have a gap (fascia gap) like the one in this picture. It doesn't take much for a squirrel or other animals to enter your attic space. From the ground this gap is hidden from the homeowners view.

FAQs for rodent pest control service projects in Waxhaw, NC

Rodent exclusion seals every gap, vent, and crack that rodents use to sneak inside your home. Most homeowners pay an average of $200 to $600 for this add-on. By blocking entry points, you create a long-term barrier that cuts down on repeat infestations and helps protect both your family and your property.

Pros start with an inspection, then place tamper-resistant bait stations and traps in high-traffic spots. They’ll also seal entry points and clean droppings to reduce health risks. Follow-up visits confirm that the plan worked and that no new rodents have moved in. This step-by-step approach removes the current infestation and helps keep your home rodent-free going forward.

A trained pest-control pro can pinpoint hidden access points using a flashlight, thermal imaging, and plenty of crawl-space sleuthing. During an inspection, the specialist maps every gap, vent, or pipe run that rats use, then explains how to seal each one. This detailed report lets you tackle the weak spots immediately and dramatically lowers the odds of another infestation.

Rodent prevention starts with managing food and entry points. Store pantry items in airtight containers, take out trash promptly, and keep pet food sealed. Outside, trim vegetation and stack firewood away from the house. Inside, seal gaps with steel wool or hardware cloth. A tidy yard and a buttoned-up home give rats and mice few reasons—or routes—to move in.

For wall or attic nests, pros place snap traps or CO2-powered units in the exact runways rats use, then return to remove carcasses and reset as needed. Poison is risky indoors because rats may die in hidden spots, creating odors or health issues, so most technicians avoid it. Once trapping is complete, they’ll seal entry points and clean droppings to finish the job.

Plan on several weeks, especially for larger infestations. Your pro will set traps, return every few days to collect rats, and adjust placement until activity stops. Final visits include sealing access points and sanitizing affected areas. Timelines vary, but most homes are rat-free after two to four follow-ups. Prompt scheduling and good sanitation can shorten the process.
