Mice and rats are opportunists, and Arlington properties give them plenty of opportunity. Predominantly slab-on-grade stucco homes from the 1970s-2010s desert suburban boom, with block-wall backyards and no basements. Once inside a wall void or attic space, they're difficult to remove without sealing the entry point that let them in.
Our process treats rodent control as a sealing problem first and a trapping problem second. We inspect the full exterior for entry points, seal what we find, then use snap traps or tamper-resistant bait stations indoors to clear whatever is already inside. A follow-up visit verifies no new activity.
