Residential Rodent Control in Ann Arbor
Mice and rats are more than just a nuisance—they’re a serious health hazard. Rodents contaminate food, spread diseases like Hantavirus and Salmonella, and can cause significant property damage by gnawing through wires, insulation, and structural materials.
In Ann Arbor’s cold Michigan winters, rodents actively seek warmth inside homes. Our comprehensive rodent control services eliminate current infestations and prevent future invasions through exclusion techniques that seal entry points.

- Gnaw marks on food packaging, walls, or wires

“We heard scratching in our walls for weeks before calling. The technician found mice had gotten in through a gap around our dryer vent. They removed the mice, sealed every entry point, and we haven’t had a problem since. Worth every penny!”

Rodent Control FAQ
How do I know if I have mice or rats?
Mouse droppings are small (1/4 inch), pointed at the ends, while rat droppings are larger (1/2 to 3/4 inch) with blunt ends. Rats also leave larger gnaw marks and greasier rub marks. Our technicians can identify the species and recommend the most effective treatment.
Are rodent treatments safe for my family and pets?
Yes. We use tamper-resistant bait stations that prevent access by children and pets. We also offer snap traps in sensitive areas. Our technicians will explain all safety precautions during your service.
How long does it take to get rid of mice?
Most residential mouse infestations can be eliminated within 2-4 weeks with proper treatment and exclusion. Severe infestations or rat problems may take longer. We provide follow-up visits to ensure complete elimination.
Why do I keep getting mice every winter?
Michigan winters drive rodents indoors seeking warmth and food. Without proper exclusion (sealing entry points), new mice will continue to enter. Our service includes identifying and sealing these entry points to prevent recurring infestations.
