Rodents are one of those problems you don’t want to be right about. You hear a tiny scratch in the ceiling and try to convince yourself it’s “just the house.” Then you find droppings in the garage. Or you notice a bag in the pantry that looks like it’s been nibbled. And suddenly you’re wide awake at 2 a.m. listening for sounds you never noticed before.
If that’s where you are right now, you’re not alone. Austin’s warm weather and fast-growing neighborhoods make rodent activity pretty common, even for clean homes. It doesn’t take much: a small gap by the garage, an open vent, a cozy attic corner, and easy access to food or water outside.
Most Austin rodent issues happen because of normal, everyday stuff:
It’s not always about “mess.” It’s usually about access.
Rodents don’t take long to get comfortable.
If you’re seeing signs now, getting ahead of it early is usually the easiest path.
Nobody wants to think about it, but rodents can create real risks.
Droppings and urine can contaminate surfaces and stored items, and cleanup can be risky if contaminated materials get disturbed without the right precautions. Rodents can also bring secondary pests indoors, like fleas or mites.
Chew electrical wiring (fire hazard)
Ruin attic insulation and leave odors behind
Damage drywall, ducting, and stored belongings

Inspection & Identification
We inspect the exterior perimeter, roofline areas, garage, attic access points, and other common entry zones. We're looking for how they're getting in, where they're moving, and what signs point to nesting activity. Then we explain what we found in plain language and walk you through the plan.

Removal & Exclusion (Traps, Baiting & Keeping Them Out)
We use the right approach for your home, activity level, and safety needs. Some situations do best with trapping. Others need exterior stations. Many need a combination plan. We'll talk you through what we recommend and why.
At the same time, we tackle the "keep them out" step that stops repeat problems. We seal entry points using rodent-resistant materials where appropriate, focusing on common weak spots like:
- Utility line penetrations
- Vents and damaged screening
- Garage door edges and thresholds
- Roofline transitions and small structural openings

Monitoring & Follow-Up
Rodent control isn't always one visit and done, especially when activity has been building. We re-check, adjust placements, and keep working the plan until activity stops.

Sanitation & Cleanup Guidance
If rodents have been nesting in insulation or contaminating storage areas, we'll guide you through safe next steps so the space feels usable again.
- Add door sweeps and weatherstripping (garage doors matter a lot)
- Repair vent covers and damaged screens
- Seal gaps around plumbing and electrical lines
- Check attic access points and roofline areas for small openings
- Store pantry items in airtight containers
- Bring pet food inside overnight
- Keep trash lids tight and bins clean
- Fix leaks and reduce standing water
- Trim branches away from the roofline
- Keep mulch from piling against the foundation
- Reduce clutter in garages and storage areas
- Manage compost and bird feeders so spilled food doesn't attract rodents
In Austin, rodent activity often spikes after heavy storms and during drought stretches when rodents travel farther for water. Those are the moments they test homes for easy access.
Common rodent intruders in Austin include:
Roof rats
Norway rats
House mice
Field mice
