"I was a member of their annual program for 5 years and really appreciated their services - techs are great and services were always on time and complete. However, I missed a payment a few months back with the pandemic and issues with USPS. I got a late notice finally and when I called them to pay I left a message and they never called me back. A few weeks later I get a notice from a collections agency. I called Home team, again no answer, no one called me back, Finally I got through and made my payment over the phone. Have an emailed receipt. I told them that after 5 years of service I was disappointed that they sent me to a collections agency (it really unnerved me) and was losing trust in them and wanted to cancel. Just call me back? They didn't even try to get my business back. Flash forward one month and I get another collection notice for the same amount I paid! Now I am being threatened with collections company over $100 that was paid a month ago. I'm calling and calling and no one ever answers haven't received a return call. This company does a great job with its pest service but unless you want to tarnish your credit report I would look to another of the highly-reviewed pest services on this site."

FAQs for rodent pest control service projects in Sanford, 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.
