What we do
We find how they're getting in and seal it. Traps go inside for the ones already here, and bait stations go outside so the next ones don't make it in.

Why mice move in every fall.
Mice start looking for a warm way in once the nights turn cold. In Western NC, October is the peak month for rodents getting into homes, and the first hard freeze pushes the rest inside.
Once they're in, they don't leave, and they keep having litters inside the walls all winter.
Signs you've got them:
- Droppings in the pantry or under the sink
- Scratching in the walls or ceiling at night
- Chewed boxes or torn-up insulation in the attic
Why a mouse exterminator alone doesn't fix it.
Traps and bait take care of the mice you have, but they do nothing about the gap the next ones will use. Per the CDC's rodent sealing guide, a mouse can fit through a hole the width of a pencil.
That's why every Pest Marshals rodent job ends with sealing. Dusty checks the spots mice use on WNC homes:
- Crawlspace and attic vents
- Dryer vents
- The gap where the A/C line goes through the wall
- Where the foundation meets the siding
- Eaves, soffits, and the roofline
Call (828) 736-1350 and tell Dusty where you're hearing them.
Rat removal and cleanup after they're gone.
Rats get the same plan as mice, with every way in sealed and one check-back visit to make sure it holds. Squirrels or raccoons in the attic are a different job, covered on our wildlife removal page.
Rats and mice leave a mess behind: droppings, urine, and nesting material in the attic or the crawlspace. Don't sweep or vacuum it. The CDC's cleanup guidance says to soak it with disinfectant first, because sweeping kicks it into the air.
We handle that part for you, so droppings and soiled insulation get bagged and hauled out before the area gets disinfected. You get before and after photos on your phone before we leave.
