Residential Rodent Control in Marietta
Most of our Marietta work is residential. The city has a wide mix of housing, from century-old riverfront homes to newer builds out toward Devola, and each type has its own rodent pressure. Families call us because they hear scratching at night, find droppings in the pantry, or notice a smell in the basement. We treat the whole house, not just the room where you saw the problem, because rodents move through wall cavities and shared chases. Our technicians seal the entry points so the fix holds through the next winter.
We inspect the attic, crawl space, basement, kitchen, and exterior perimeter of your Marietta home, using inspection mirrors and flashlights to check voids. You get a written summary of every entry point we find and a clear plan for removal and sealing. Inspections take 45 to 90 minutes.
We set snap traps, live catch traps, and glue boards where appropriate along the runways rodents actually use. In Marietta's older homes, that means checking behind baseboards and under sinks. Traps are checked every two to three days until activity stops, usually within two weeks.
We seal foundation gaps, vent openings, and pipe penetrations with hardware cloth, copper mesh, steel wool, and foam sealant. For Marietta homes with stone foundations, we pack the mortar joints before sealing. Most single-family exclusion jobs take two to four hours.
When rodents have nested in insulation or left droppings in a crawl space, we remove the debris and treat the area. This matters in Marietta's damp riverfront crawl spaces, where nesting material holds moisture. We dispose of everything we remove and leave the space clear.
- Sealed entry points mean the rodents do not come back next fall, which saves you a repeat service call.
- We work around your schedule, including evenings and weekends, so you are not taking a day off for the inspection.
- You get a written summary of what we found and what we did, useful for insurance or a future sale.
