Comprehensive Solutions for Roof Rats and Mice

Roseville is a wonderful place to live, but its abundance of mature trees, creeks, and landscaped yards provides the perfect environment for rodents to thrive. Roof rats and house mice are common problems for local homeowners, often seeking shelter inside attics and garages to escape the weather or find food. These pests are not just a nuisance; they are persistent intruders that can squeeze through incredibly small openings, turning a quiet home into a source of stress and sleepless nights.

At Rocklin Pest Control, we understand the urgency of a rodent infestation. With over 20 years of experience serving the Roseville community, we have honed our skills in detecting and eliminating these difficult pests. Our 3rd generation family-owned company goes beyond simple trapping; our team includes licensed inspectors and a skilled in-house construction crew dedicated to repairing the damage rodents cause and ensuring they cannot return.

The Dangers of Untreated Infestations

Rodents are among the most destructive pests a homeowner can encounter. Their teeth never stop growing, driving them to gnaw on wood, drywall, PVC piping, and, most dangerously, electrical wiring. This behavior poses a significant fire hazard and can lead to costly repairs if left unchecked. Additionally, rodents compromise the thermal efficiency of a home by trampling down or shredding insulation in attics and crawl spaces for nesting material.

Beyond physical damage, the presence of rats and mice creates serious health risks.

Disease Transmission: Rodents can carry dangerous pathogens such as Salmonella and Hantavirus, which can be spread through their urine, droppings, and saliva.
Parasites: They often bring secondary pests like fleas, ticks, and mites into the living space, compounding the infestation.
Contamination: Food storage areas and countertops can easily become contaminated, posing a direct threat to your family's safety.

Recognizing the severity of these risks is essential. A small problem can escalate rapidly, as rodents breed quickly. Ignoring the early signs—such as droppings or rub marks along baseboards—allows the population to establish itself, making removal more difficult and expensive.

Our Comprehensive Rodent Strategy

At Rocklin Pest Control, we believe that effective rodent control requires a "whole-structure" approach. Simply setting traps without addressing how the rodents got inside is a temporary fix that leads to frustration. Our process begins with a rigorous inspection by our highly educated team to identify the species involved and locate every access point, from roof vents to foundation cracks.

We implement a strategy designed for long-term results.

Targeted Trapping: We use safe and effective methods to remove the current population from your home quickly.
Exclusion Work: This is where we excel. We seal up entry points using durable materials that rodents cannot chew through.
Damage Repair: Unlike many competitors, our in-house construction crew can repair the structural damage caused by the infestation, including dry rot and compromised siding.

We work tirelessly to provide fast, personalized treatments. Our office personnel and technicians guide you through every step, ensuring you understand the plan to reclaim your home. With our "no additional cost" warranty on maintenance, we promise that if the rodents come back, so do we.

The Importance of Professional Service

Many homeowners attempt to solve rodent problems with DIY solutions like store-bought traps or bait stations. While these might catch a few individuals, they rarely solve the underlying issue. Rodents are intelligent and cautious; they often learn to avoid traps or bait that is placed incorrectly. Furthermore, mishandling rodenticides can pose severe risks to pets, children, and local wildlife.

Professional rodent control is about more than just extermination; it is about expertise in construction and animal behavior. A professional knows exactly where to look for hidden entry points that an untrained eye would miss. They understand the nesting habits of different species, knowing whether to look in the sub-area or the high corners of the attic.

Hiring a professional ensures that the exclusion work is done correctly. Sealing a home effectively requires specific materials and construction knowledge to ensure airflow is not restricted while still blocking pests. This level of detail provides a permanent solution rather than a temporary band-aid, protecting the investment you have made in your home.

Prevention Tips for Homeowners

While professional exclusion is the best defense, maintaining a rodent-proof environment involves reducing attractants around your property. Small changes in your daily routine and yard maintenance can make your home significantly less appealing to foraging mice and rats.

Seal Food Sources: Store dry goods, pet food, and bird seed in airtight metal or heavy plastic containers. Never leave pet food bowls out overnight.
Maintain Landscaping: Trim trees and ivy away from the roofline and fences. Roof rats use overhanging branches as "highways" to access your attic.
Eliminate Clutter: Remove piles of debris, wood, or old equipment from the yard, as these provide hiding spots and nesting material.
Manage Moisture: Fix leaky outdoor faucets and ensure gutters are clean, as rodents need a reliable water source.

FAQs About Rodent Control

How will your team find where the rodents are getting in?

We start by performing a detailed inspection of both the inside and outside of your property to identify likely entry points. Our technicians look at foundations, rooflines, vents, utility penetrations, doors, and other areas where gaps or openings can occur. We also examine attics, crawl spaces, garages, and storage areas for signs of travel routes, nesting, and droppings that point to how rodents are moving.

Because we have many years of experience working in local homes and commercial buildings, we know which construction features often create vulnerabilities. Once we identify the primary entry points, we explain them to you and recommend practical exclusion steps. This inspection is the foundation for a plan that addresses not just the rodents you see today, but also the ways new rodents could enter in the future.

Is your rodent treatment safe for my kids and pets?

We select treatments with safety in mind and work to protect children and pets while addressing the rodent problem. Our technicians choose methods and products based on where activity is located, how the space is used, and who spends time there. When possible and appropriate, we incorporate eco-friendly options into the plan to further reduce impact.

During your visit, we explain where any products will be placed and what simple precautions you can take, such as keeping pets away from certain areas for a specified period. If you have particular concerns or sensitivities, we encourage you to share them so we can take that into account. Our goal is to balance effective control with a treatment approach you feel comfortable with in your home or business.

How quickly can you come out to look at a possible rodent problem?

When you call our office, we work to schedule an inspection as quickly as our routes and technician availability allow. For many calls received before noon, our goal is to offer same-day service, although exact timing can depend on the season and current demand. If we are not able to arrive that day, we typically suggest the next soonest appointment that fits your schedule.

During your initial call, we gather key details about what you are seeing or hearing so we can prioritize appropriately. Rodent issues are often time sensitive, so we treat them as a high priority within our schedule. No matter when the appointment is set, you can expect clear communication about arrival windows and what the visit will involve.

What happens during a rodent inspection at my home or business?

During a rodent inspection, our technician begins by speaking with you about your concerns, such as noises, sightings, or damage you have noticed. We then walk through interior spaces where signs are likely to appear, including kitchens, storage rooms, garages, and accessible attic or crawl space openings. On the exterior, we look around the foundation, roof edges, vents, and utility lines for openings and other clues.

As we go, we document findings such as droppings, rub marks, nesting materials, and chew marks, which help determine the level and pattern of activity. Once the inspection is complete, we review our observations with you, answer questions, and propose a tailored plan that covers treatment options and recommended exclusion work. This way, you know exactly what we found and how we suggest moving forward.

Do you offer rodent control for commercial properties too?

Yes, we provide rodent control services for a wide range of commercial properties as well as homes. This can include offices, retail spaces, restaurants, warehouses, and other facilities that face challenges with stored goods, frequent deliveries, or high customer traffic. Our technicians understand how rodent activity in a business setting can affect health regulations, reputation, and daily operations.

For commercial clients, we adapt our inspection and treatment plans around business hours when possible and coordinate with managers to minimize disruption. We also consider the specific needs of your operation, such as protecting inventory or maintaining access to key areas. By combining rodent control with broader structural pest management, we help businesses maintain a cleaner, safer environment for staff and customers.
