Our commitment to Ehren families goes beyond just pest control—we offer special discounts to new homeowners and military families because we believe in supporting our community.
First, we inspect your attic and property to identify exactly what type of rodents you’re dealing with—roof rats, Norway rats, or mice—because each requires different strategies. We locate all entry points, from quarter-sized holes in your roofline to gaps around pipes and vents.
Next, we trap and remove all existing rodents using humane, effective methods. No poison that leaves dead animals rotting in your walls or puts your pets at risk. We use professional trapping techniques that get results fast.
Finally, we identify every entry point with materials rodents can’t chew through—steel wool, metal mesh, and professional-grade identifyants. This exclusion work comes with a full year warranty, so if rodents find a way back in, we return at no charge to fix the problem.

Your rodent control service includes complete inspection of your Ehren property, identification of rodent species and entry points, humane trapping and removal, and permanent exclusion work that keeps them out for good.
In Florida’s warm, humid climate, rodents stay active year-round, making professional prevention essential. Roof rats—the most common species in our area—use tree branches and power lines to access your roof, then squeeze through openings as small as a quarter. They nest in attics, chew through insulation and wiring, and create serious fire hazards if left untreated.
Our service addresses these local challenges with targeted solutions: we recommend tree trimming to eliminate access routes, identify vulnerable areas like soffit vents and roof intersections, and provide ongoing monitoring to catch problems early. You also get tips and advice to maintain a rodent-free environment long-term.
The most obvious signs are scratching or scurrying sounds in your attic, especially at night when rodents are most active. You might also find small, dark droppings in cabinets, pantries, or along baseboards—fresh droppings are black and shiny, while old ones turn gray and crumbly.
Look for gnaw marks on food packaging, furniture, or wires, and check for greasy smudge marks along walls where rodents regularly travel. If you have fruit trees in your yard, hollowed-out citrus fruits are a telltale sign of roof rats, which are common in the Ehren area.
Don’t wait if you suspect rodents—they reproduce quickly, and what starts as one or two can become a major infestation within weeks.
Roof rats are the most common species in Central Florida and are excellent climbers that prefer high places like attics, trees, and upper floors. They’re typically dark brown or black, have large ears, and their tails are longer than their bodies. These rats often access homes through roof lines, soffit vents, and overhanging tree branches.
Norway rats are larger, bulkier, and prefer ground-level areas like basements, crawl spaces, and burrows under patios or sheds. They have smaller ears, shorter tails, and are usually brown or gray. While less common in our area, they can cause significant structural damage by digging burrows that weaken foundations.
Both species carry diseases and cause property damage, but the treatment approach differs based on their nesting preferences and entry methods.
Rodent control costs vary based on the size of your property, severity of the infestation, and amount of exclusion work needed. Most of our Ehren customers receive quotes over the phone after describing their situation, which saves time and eliminates surprises.
A typical residential rodent control service includes inspection, trapping, removal, and identifying entry points, with costs ranging based on the scope of work required. Properties with extensive damage or multiple entry points may require additional investment, but we always provide written estimates upfront.
Remember that professional rodent control saves money long-term by preventing costly damage to insulation, wiring, and structural components. We also offer special discounts for new homeowners and military families in the Ehren area.
Poison creates more problems than it solves, especially in Florida homes. When rodents eat poison, they typically die inside walls, attics, or other inaccessible areas, creating terrible odors that can last for weeks. The smell attracts other pests and requires expensive cleanup or even wall removal to locate the source.
Poison also poses serious risks to pets, children, and wildlife. If your cat or dog catches a poisoned rodent, they can become seriously ill or die from secondary poisoning. Birds of prey and other beneficial wildlife face the same risks when they consume poisoned rodents.
Most importantly, poison doesn’t solve the real problem—how rodents are getting into your home. Without identifying entry points, new rodents will simply replace the ones that died, and you’ll face the same problem repeatedly.
Most rodent problems in Ehren homes are resolved within 1-2 weeks once proper trapping and exclusion work begins. The timeline depends on the size of the infestation, number of entry points, and cooperation from homeowners in maintaining a clean environment.
We typically see results within the first few days of trapping, but complete elimination requires patience to ensure we’ve caught all rodents before identifying final entry points. Rushing this process by identifying holes too early can trap rodents inside, creating odor problems and forcing them to chew new exit routes.
Our systematic approach—trap first, then identify—ensures permanent results. Once exclusion work is complete, you should see no new signs of rodent activity. Our one-year warranty guarantees this, and we’ll return at no charge if rodents find a way back in during that period.
Don’t wait—call for professional help immediately. Rodents reproduce extremely quickly, and delays only make the problem worse and more expensive to solve. A single pair of roof rats can produce up to 40 offspring per year, turning a small problem into a major infestation within months.
While waiting for service, avoid the attic area and don’t attempt DIY solutions like poison or snap traps, which often make situations worse. Keep food in identifyed containers, fix any water leaks, and trim tree branches away from your roofline if possible.
We provide 24/7 response for rodent emergencies in Ehren, including weekends, because we understand that rodent problems don’t wait for business hours. Most quotes are provided over the phone, so you’ll know what to expect before we arrive.
