Scratching in the attic at night is almost always roof rats working the roofline, while ground-level droppings near the pantry usually mean house mice — our technicians identify the species before setting a single trap.
A technician walks the roofline, foundation, and utility penetrations to find every gap a rodent could be using, not just the obvious one.


Our Rodent Control crew is trained specifically on rat and mouse biology, not general pest spraying.
Rodent calls in Carmichael get prioritized scheduling since a small mouse problem can become a breeding population within weeks.
You get one flat quote covering trapping, gap sealing, and a scheduled follow-up — sealing costs are never a surprise add-on.
Our vehicles carry door sweeps, vent screening, and expanding sealant specifically for rodent exclusion work.
We trace grease trails along rafters and gable vents, which is where roof rat activity concentrates.
Norway rats burrow at the foundation and under sheds, so exterior bait stations and burrow treatment are part of the plan.
House mice need only a quarter-inch gap, so mouse jobs focus heavily on sealing utility penetrations and door corners.
Trapping without sealing just invites the next rodent in — we close every identified gap with steel wool, hardware cloth, and sealant.
Commercial rodent accounts get recurring exterior station checks documented for compliance records.
After removal, we can address contaminated insulation and droppings left behind in the attic.

Tell dispatch where the activity is: roofline, attic, or ground level, so the right technician and gear get assigned.
Our mobile units stock hardware cloth and steel wool on every rodent-flagged dispatch.
We identify the species, trace the entry gap, and quote a flat price covering both trapping and permanent sealing.
Guarantee coverage means a return visit is free if activity continues past the stated window.
Mice were getting into the pantry no matter how much steel wool I stuffed in myself. Turns out the real gap was behind the dryer vent.
As a property manager, having documented service reports for every unit made compliance so much easier.
Knowing the difference between a Norway rat burrow and a roof rat travel path was something we never would have figured out ourselves.

Nex Pest Control dispatches rodent-specialized technicians throughout Carmichael and nearby communities, with trapping and exclusion gear stocked on every vehicle.

Roof rats are heard overhead in the attic, while Norway rats are more often found at ground level or in the crawl space.
Yes, exclusion is the permanent fix; trapping alone without sealing usually means new activity within a few weeks.
We use tamper-resistant, locked bait stations and can place snap traps specifically out of pet reach on request.
Initial trapping shows results within days, with full clearance usually confirmed by the second visit.
We can document damage for your records and offer attic sanitation as an add-on service after removal is confirmed.
We set up recurring monitoring visits for warehouses, restaurants, and retail spaces on a schedule that fits your operation.
