Residential Rodent Control in Brooklyn
Most of our Brooklyn work is residential. The housing stock here is a mix of post-war bungalows, duplexes, and older single-family homes, and each type has its own rodent patterns. Bungalows tend to have attic and garage entry points. Duplexes share walls, so a problem in one unit often spreads to the other. Older homes with stone foundations and crawl spaces are the most vulnerable. We handle all of it, from a single mouse in the kitchen to a full rat infestation in a basement. Our residential program includes inspection, trapping, exclusion, and follow-up, all under one flat price.
Mice in Brooklyn kitchens are usually entering from the garage or a foundation gap. We set snap traps and glue boards along baseboards and inside cabinets, then seal the entry points so the problem does not come back. Most kitchen infestations clear in two weeks.
Rats in Brooklyn basements often come from sewer lines or exterior burrows. We use large snap traps, tamper-resistant bait stations, and tracking powder to confirm the run. If the sewer line is the source, we document it and recommend a plumbing repair.
Rodents leave behind droppings, nesting material, and contaminated insulation. We remove all of it, bag it, and dispose of it properly. If the smell is noticeable, we treat the area with an odor neutralizer. This is often the step homeowners forget until the smell becomes a problem.
Exclusion is the permanent fix. We seal foundation gaps, sill plates, garage shared walls, attic vents, and utility penetrations with copper mesh, steel wool, hardware cloth, and exclusion sealant. Every repair is documented with photos so you have a record.
- Flat pricing with follow-up visits included, so you know the cost before we start.
- Written reports with photos of every entry point we find and seal.
- One-year workmanship warranty on exclusion work, with a free callback if activity returns.
