Rodents are the most commonly encountered mammal in Texas<\/a>. Some of the most common rodents you\u2019ll find in your Houston area home are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Norway Rats<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Roof Rats<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. House Mice<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Eastern Gray Squirrels<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The deer mouse, White Footed Mouse and nutria are other rodents in Houston <\/a>area that can be a nuisance but aren\u2019t as prevalent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Homeowners in the Houston area tend to notice rodent feces or strange sounds in their walls and attics first. Rodent problems extend beyond those nuisances. Feces can transmit diseases. Rodents gnawing on electrical wires can increase the risk of fires. The pests introduce parasites like fleas into your house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Critter Control in Houston <\/a>specializes in rodent removal and control. Rodent removal begins with a thorough inspection to determine how severe the problem is. The more established rodents are, the more involved the removal process will be. After inspecting, our wildlife specialist will build a custom solution to trap, remove, and seal all entry points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Home Inspection for Rodents<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    During a rodent inspection, our inspector will thoroughly inspect your attic as well as provide a full exterior home inspection. The most common signs of rodent activity are chewing, droppings, rub marks, nesting material, and small entry points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The most common areas to find a rodent infestation are in your attic, in the crawlspace, and inside the walls. You\u2019re likely to find evidence of rats and mice in your kitchen as they scavenge for food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Rodent Removal & Trapping<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Based on the inspection, our wildlife specialist creates a strategic trapping plan to remove the rodents <\/a>found in your home. Types of traps, placement of traps, and bait used in traps determine the effectiveness of rodent trapping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Our wildlife specialist will ensure to use of the most efficient and safe removal process for your home. Though the standard rat trapping\/removal <\/a>duration is normally between 5 to 14 days, the trapping process may be longer if the rodents are well-established.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Rodent Control in Your Attic<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    There are a few ways to rodent-proof your attic, and most of them start before the rodents reach the attic. Some rodents like mice can fit through openings as small as half an inch in diameter, which means that small holes, gaps in doorways, and wall vents often serve as common entry points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Rats are also proficient swimmers capable of traveling through sewer lines and entering buildings by emerging from toilets and open drains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Check your roof and soffits for any small holes. Any rodent can take a pre-existing hole and gnaw it to make it bigger. Another way rodents can get into your home is through your vents. There are a few ways you can keep rodents out of your vents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Rodent Control for the Crawl Space<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Rodents can easily find their way into your crawlspaces. Norway rats and mice are the most common rodents in crawl spaces. Norway rats tend to burrow along the foundations of homes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Rodent Exclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Rodent exclusion is the best rodent control method. The rats and mice got into your home. During the Critter Control free inspection in Houston and surrounding areas, our technicians identified all current and potential animal entry points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    After rodent removal, it is essential to repair any entry points on your home. Rodents leave pheromone trails, and other rodents quickly utilize those scent trails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Habitat Modification for Rodent Control<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Food sources, water sources, and shelter attract rats, mice, and squirrels to your house. Our technicians can offer simple ways to make your property less appealing to rodents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Keep pet food inside and stored it. Removing trees or branches close to your roof and keep your property clear of debris can help to keep your property rodent free. Rodents love clutter and will use debris for nesting material.

    Keep your garage door closed as much as possible, especially at dark. Garages are often used as storage spaces, and rodents will take advantage of any food they can get to or any items that can be used for nesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    When Will I See Rodents Most?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Rats and mice are nocturnal and active year-round in Texas. Squirrels are diurnal and most likely to enter your home during their breeding seasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Hurricane season is the most popular time of year for Houston <\/a>rodents to venture outside of their homes. However, limiting their activity to hurricane season is not entirely true. Anytime there are large rainfalls and flooding, we should be extra cautious when it comes to rodent invasion. Flooding forces rodents to venture inside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Pest Control vs Wildlife Removal Services<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Critter Control<\/a> specializes in whole-home exclusions. We identify the rodent entry points and install materials designed to keep rodents out. We offer a one year warranty on whole home exclusions and suggest recurring rodent control services to keep your home protected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
