Are Mice and Rats Dangerous? Yes!
Rodents aren’t just a nuisance; they’re a serious threat to your home and family. Rats and mice carry diseases like salmonella, hantavirus, and leptospirosis, which spread through their droppings, urine, or contaminated food. Additionally, their constant gnawing leads to fire hazards and compromises the structural integrity of your home. Don’t let these small intruders cause big problems, like:
- Destruction of electrical wires and PVC, causing fire hazards and water leaks
- Polluting the air quality of your home through their droppings
- Destruction of rafters, furniture, and personal belongings
- Spreading 35+ serious diseases, including listeria, Lyme disease, and even the plague
- Rodents carry ticks, fleas, and mites, which quickly spread to you and your pets

Amazing Rodent Control
I was having a terrible time keeping my garage free from field mice. Ken was able to not only mice-proof my garage but do so in a professional manor. I highly recommend Ken at Croach Pest Control for any pest issues you may have.

Took Care of Our Mice Problem!
Daniel was our technician today and did an outstanding job! I let him know we had seen some mice activity and he set traps to take care of our problem. He went above and beyond to make sure our home is free of pests. Highly recommend!

Loved Our Service!
Kyle was my initial treatment technician, he took extra time to walk me through the interior and exterior and troubleshoot for mice. He explained everything really throughly and I felt comfortable with him in my home. Very respectful.

Signs Of A Rodent Infestation
Even just one or two rodents can quickly lead to an infestation. If you suspect a rodent problem, watch for these common signs:
- Musky Odor: The urine of rats and mice has a strong ammonia-like smell.
- Mice Droppings: Small, pellet-shaped droppings in cabinets, drawers, or along baseboards.
- Gnaw Marks: Chewed food packaging, furniture, or wiring.
- Noises: Scratching or scurrying sounds in walls, ceilings, garages, or attics, especially at night.
- Rodent Nests: Shredded paper, fabric, or insulation.
- Tracks: Greasy marks or tiny footprints in or around your home.
- Odd Pet Behavior: Dogs and cats smell rodents, so if your pet is scratching at walls in a particular area of the house, it could be a sign of rodents.
The faster you identify the infestation signs, the quicker you can call in the professionals to protect your family. Schedule a rodent control inspection with your local Croach® technician and protect your family and home.
How to Prevent a Rodent Infestation
Rats and mice are smart; they adapt quickly to avoid common DIY rodent control methods. Prevention is key to avoid a rodent infestation. Here are some tips to keep mice and rats at bay:
- Keep your yard free of excess debris, like leaf piles and mulch. Cut back trees so branches don’t extend near the roof.
- Seal all possible openings to your home so rodents can’t enter.
- Store food, including pet food, in tightly sealed containers.
- Use an organic peppermint-based or ammonia-based cleaner to repel rodents.
- Last, but most importantly, hire a professional pest control for ongoing prevention.
The Croach® Rodent Control Process
Croach® Pest Control goes beyond quick fixes to deliver long-term rodent control solutions. We utilize Integrated Pest Management techniques to eliminate current rodent problems and prevent their recurrence.
Step 1: Thorough Inspections
Our highly trained technicians will perform a thorough inspection to assess which rodents are infesting your home and the extent of the damage they’ve done. We also identify how they are entering your home, where they are nesting, and what is attracting them.
Step 2: Trapping and Bait Stations
We focus on targeted baiting, trapping, and other eco-friendly extermination methods. Our technicians place the most effective traps along rodent travel routes, ensuring they stay our of your family’s way. They’ll also place bait stations around your home’s exterior before they can get inside your home.
Step 3: Exclusion
Removing a current rodent infestation isn't enough. To keep them from coming back, you’ll need to block their access to your home. Exclusion is a skilled process of locating and closing off or sealing minuscule points of entry.
Step 4: Restoration and Sanitization
Included in your initial inspection is a careful analysis of your attic, crawl space, or both. In some cases, it is necessary to replace the attic insulation, crawl space insulation, and vapor barrier. We are pleased to offer professional insulation installation services to Seattle & Portland area customers.
Step 5: Ongoing Monitoring and Prevention
Your Croach® technician will return quarterly to ensure that your mice or rat problem is resolved and proactively address any new risks. We also empower you with expert advice and tools to maintain a rodent-free home.

What Mice and Rats Are Infesting Your Home?
Croach® Pest Control is your trusted partner in the fight against rodents. While there are over 2,000 species of rodents, these are the most common mice and rats found in American homes:
House Mouse
The house mouse (Mus musculus) is the most common type of mouse found throughout the country. They have light-colored bellies and prefer to nest in dark, secluded areas. This rodent causes significant damage by chewing through drywall, insulation, and electrical wire.
Roof Rats
Especially prevalent in coastal and lowland regions, roof rats (Rattus rattus) prefer to nest in high places such as attics or trees. This type of rat is historically associated with bubonic plague and commonly spread other diseases like trichinosis, typhus, and jaundice.
Deer Mice
Typically found in rural or wooded areas, deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) can also invade homes. These mice are especially dangerous as they are known carriers of fatal diseases. Never come into contact with the feces, urine, or saliva of deer mice.
