Everything You Need to Know About Rodent Removal

Rodents can create chaos in your home, from damaging insulation to spreading diseases. Our rodent removal services are designed to tackle infestations head-on, eliminating rodents and securing your home against future threats.

We don’t just remove the pests—we clean up the mess they leave behind and seal entry points to prevent them from returning. With years of experience and a commitment to safety, our team ensures your home is free from rodents, giving you peace of mind.

We begin by performing a detailed inspection of your attic, crawl space, and the entire perimeter of your home to identify signs of rodent activity and possible entry points.

Using humane traps and safe removal methods, we eliminate rodents from your property. Our methods are designed to minimize any disruption to your home while effectively addressing the problem.

After removing the rodents, we seal all potential entry points and repair any damage to prevent future infestations. Our team ensures your home stays rodent-free with our comprehensive prevention measures.

We use humane trapping and removal techniques to ensure the safe removal of rodents from your property, combined with preventative measures to stop future infestations.

Yes. We use non-toxic, humane methods that are completely safe for your family and pets during the entire removal process.

Good to Know

Understanding Rodent Proofing

Rodents can squeeze through openings as small as a quarter-inch for mice and roughly a half-inch for rats, which is why effective exclusion work focuses on sealing gaps around utility penetrations, vents, and roofline joints — not just the obvious holes.

Humane exclusion (sealing entry points after removal) is generally more effective long-term than repeated trapping alone, since trapping without sealing just creates an opening for the next rodent to move in.

Rodent droppings and nesting material can harbor bacteria and, in some cases, hantavirus — which is why professional cleanup after an infestation uses sanitization, not just physical removal, to make the space safe again.

What Bay Area Homeowners Are Saying

★★★★★

“I saw right away that the HVAC system wasn't working properly after purchasing the property from its long-term owners. Yearly accumulation went unnoticed until duct replacement. We were able to correctly update things with Daniel's support.”

Common Questions

FAQ

How much does rodent removal cost? +

Cost depends on the size of your home and the scope of the work. We provide a free, no-obligation inspection and give you an exact quote before anything begins — no surprises.

How long does the work take? +

Most jobs are completed in a single day. Larger or more involved projects may take longer, which we'll confirm during your free inspection.

Do I need to be home during the work? +

You don't need to stay in the work area itself, but we do ask that someone is available at the start and end of the appointment. Our crew works cleanly and keeps you updated throughout.

Are you licensed and insured? +

Yes — Attic Star is fully licensed, bonded, and insured, and has served Bay Area homeowners for over 25 years.

What's the difference between rodent proofing and pest control? +

Pest control typically treats an active problem (trapping or removal); rodent proofing focuses on sealing the entry points that let rodents in to begin with, so the problem doesn't come back. We generally recommend both together for a lasting fix.

Is it safe for kids and pets? +

Yes — we use humane, professional-grade methods and materials, and can walk you through exactly what's being used in and around your home.

How do I know if I actually have a rodent problem? +

Common signs include droppings, gnaw marks on wires or wood, scratching sounds in walls or the attic, and a persistent musty or ammonia-like smell. If you've noticed any of these, it's worth a free inspection.
