Rodent Control Services in Comal County & Surrounding Areas
Rodents We Commonly Control
Rodents such as mice, rats, and squirrels can cause serious problems when they invade homes and businesses. Professional rodent control is essential to prevent property damage, health risks, and costly repairs. Without proper rodent treatment's, these pests can contaminate food, chew wiring and insulation, and create unsafe, unsanitary living conditions.
Mice
Mice are small but highly destructive rodents that require prompt rodent control services. They reproduce quickly and often go unnoticed until droppings, nesting material, or damage is discovered. Mice can squeeze through openings as small as a dime and commonly nest inside walls, attics, and storage areas. Effective rodent control is critical because their constant gnawing can damage insulation, drywall, and electrical wiring.
Rats
Rats are larger, more aggressive rodents that can cause extensive structural damage if rodent control measures are not taken quickly. They chew through wood, plastic, and even soft metals, and frequently enter buildings through foundations, rooflines, or sewer systems. Rats are commonly found in attics, crawl spaces, garages, and commercial properties where food sources are present, making professional rodent control a necessity.
Squirrels
Squirrels often enter structures through roof vents, soffits, or damaged fascia boards. Although they may seem harmless, squirrels can cause serious damage without proper rodent control. They frequently nest in attics and chew electrical wiring, increasing the risk of fire. Signs that rodent control is needed include loud scratching or running noises in ceilings or walls.

Signs of a Rodent Infestation
Rodents are often active at night, so infestations can go unnoticed until clear signs appear. If you notice any of the following, it may indicate the presence of mice, rats, or squirrels on your property:
-
Droppings found near food sources, cabinets, or along walls
-
Scratching, scurrying, or gnawing noises in walls, ceilings, or attics
-
Chewed wires, insulation, wood, or stored items
-
Nests made from shredded paper, fabric, or insulation
-
Grease marks or rub marks along baseboards and entry points
-
Unusual pet behavior, such as barking or scratching at walls
Early detection is key, as rodents reproduce quickly and can cause increasing damage over time.
Rodent Exclusion & Prevention
Long-Term Protection Beyond Removal
Effective rodent control goes beyond removing the animals currently inside your home or business. Rodent exclusion and prevention focus on keeping rodents from returning by addressing how they gain access in the first place.
Our approach includes identifying common entry points such as gaps around doors, vents, rooflines, utility penetrations, and foundation openings. We also provide recommendations to reduce attractants like accessible food sources, clutter, and moisture buildup.
By combining targeted rodent control with exclusion and prevention strategies, we help reduce the likelihood of future infestations and protect your property long-term.
