Kyle did a detailed, exceptional job. Kyle used a duster and sprayed around the windows. The prior guy that came did not. HE only did basic inside and outside the house and lied about the shop when I mentioned the shop. He said they don't do shops and garages. Today I found out they do. Normally I would not recommended this company, but because of Kyle I would. However request Kyle or talk directly to owner and request in writing what is to be done.Posted on Google

Signs Of A Rodent Infestation At Home
At first, the signs of rats and mice in homes in North Idaho and Eastern Washington are subtle. But once you start to see them, you'll have a huge problem on your hands. With this in mind, be alert to evidence you may need rodent control, including:
- Scratching or scurrying sounds inside walls or ceilings
- Droppings in cabinets, pantries, garages, or crawl spaces
- Chewed food packaging or gnaw marks on wood, plastic, or electrical wiring
- Shredded paper, insulation, or fabric used for nesting
- Grease marks along walls or pipes
- Burrows around foundations or landscaping
- Strong musky odors
- Pets paying unusual attention to walls or cabinets
The earlier these signs are addressed, the easier rodent infestations are typically to eliminate. Regularly check your attic, crawl spaces, and around the exterior of your home for evidence of rodents. Keep food put away in airtight containers and clean your home regularly. Rodents are not just unpleasant. They can damage your home, contaminate living areas, and create serious health concerns.
Common Mice and Rats Around The Inland Northwest
Different rodent species behave differently, which is why proper identification is one of the most important parts of successful rodent control. Here are the types of rodents to watch out for in the Spokane–Coeur d'Alene area:
- House Mice are the most common rodent around. They also transmit diseases and destroy property. The female house mouse is a rapid breeder. It consumes almost any food but prefers grains, nuts, and seeds.
- Deer Mice are another common mammal in North Idaho and Eastern Washington. They are known to carry life-threatening diseases, such as Hantavirus, infecting humans through their saliva, droppings, and urine. The deer mouse is nocturnal, highly reproductive, and active year-round.
- Western Jumping Mice hibernate most of the year, only coming out to find food between dusk and dawn during the summer months. Strong feet and long tails enable Western Jumping mice to jump nearly 10 feet. They eat fruits, seeds, and insects.
- Western Harvest Mice are skilled climbers, nocturnal, and most active on dark, rainy nights. They breed year-round and produce multiple litters. This mouse is a herbivore, looking for grains, oats, and fruits. This species can transmit plague, rat-bite fever, and other serious illnesses.
- Kangaroo Rats thrive in the Inland Northwest. In fact, lab students at The University of Idaho extensively study the movement and anatomy of our local Kangaroo Rat population. Though they feed on grasses, seeds, and other plant life, they may infest your lawn or burrow into the ground alongside your home.
- Norway Rats are intelligent, excellent swimmers, and will eat nearly anything, which can wreak havoc in the home. They carry various diseases, including Weil’s Disease, rat bite fever, viral hemorrhagic fever, and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome.
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 identify rodent activity, nesting areas, and entry points throughout your home.
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. We locate and seal entry points because even a hole the size of a dime can allow mice inside.
Step 4: Ongoing Monitoring and Prevention
Rodent control often requires follow-up to ensure complete elimination and prevent reinfestation. Your Croach® technician will return quarterly to ensure that your mice or rat problem is resolved and proactively address any new risks.
Learn All About Rodent Control In Spokane–Coeur d'Alene
The more you know about mice and rats, the better you can keep them out of your home. Here are some common questions our customers in Spokane and Coeur d'Alene ask about our rodent control services:
House mice, deer mice, Norway rats, and roof rats are the rodent species most commonly encountered throughout the Inland Northwest.
Yes. Deer mice can carry hantavirus, which is why it's important to avoid direct contact with rodent droppings and to follow proper cleanup procedures recommended by health authorities.
Yes. Rodents can damage insulation, wiring, ductwork, vapor barriers, stored belongings, food packaging, and structural materials. They can also contaminate surfaces with droppings and urine.
Rodents are attracted to food, water, and shelter. Common attractants include garbage, compost, pet food, bird seed, chicken feed, fallen fruit, clutter, wood piles, crawl spaces, sheds, and leaks.
Properties in North Idaho or Eastern Washington with recurring rodent activity, nearby open land, farms, or commercial facilities would benefit from ongoing monitoring and seasonal inspections. We recommend having your pest control technician visit at least every 2 - 3 months throughout the year.
