You’ll finally get uninterrupted sleep once those scratching sounds stop echoing through your walls and attic. No more jumping at every noise or wondering if that shadow you caught was another unwelcome visitor.
Your home becomes the safe haven it should be. The fire hazard from chewed electrical wires disappears, and you won’t have to explain rodent droppings to guests or worry about your family’s health.
Your property value stays protected. Instead of dealing with damaged insulation, contaminated areas, and structural problems that drive down your home’s worth, you’ll have a clean, professionally identifyed space that keeps rodents out for good.
We’ve been protecting Lacoochee families from rodent infestations since 2020. Owner George Lundin personally handles every call and provides direct service—you’ll never get passed around to different technicians or deal with corporate runaround.
We’ve earned over 100 five-star Google reviews and maintain an A+ BBB rating because we treat every home like our own. When you call, you’re speaking directly with the owner, not a call center.
Lacoochee’s year-round warm climate creates perfect conditions for roof rats, house mice, and squirrels to thrive. We understand exactly how these pests behave in Central Florida and which entry points they target in homes throughout Hernando County.
First, we conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify all active rodent populations and locate every potential entry point. This includes checking your attic, crawl spaces, roof line, and exterior walls where rats and mice typically gain access.
Next, we professionally identify all entry points using durable materials that rodents cannot chew through. This exclusion work is the most critical step—without proper identifying, new rodents will simply replace the ones we remove.
Finally, we strategically place traps to eliminate any rodents already inside your home. We return to check traps, remove any captured rodents, and ensure your property remains rodent-free. Most infestations are completely resolved within days of identifying the entry points.

Our rodent control service covers all common Florida species including roof rats, Norway rats, house mice, and squirrels. We don’t just set a few traps and hope for the best—we eliminate the current population and prevent future infestations through professional exclusion work.
Lacoochee’s proximity to wooded areas and agricultural land creates ideal conditions for rodent activity. Roof rats use tree branches and utility lines to access homes, while house mice squeeze through gaps as small as a pencil width. We know exactly where these pests hide and how they enter local properties.
Every service includes professional identifying of entry points, strategic trap placement, follow-up visits, and a detailed explanation of what we found and how we fixed it. You’ll receive transparent communication throughout the entire process, with most quotes provided over the phone before we even arrive.
Rats typically enter Lacoochee attics through roof vents, soffit gaps, or by climbing tree branches that touch your roofline. Roof rats are excellent climbers and can squeeze through openings as small as a half-inch wide.
They often use utility lines, fence tops, or overhanging tree limbs as highways to reach your roof. Once there, they look for any gap around vents, where different roofing materials meet, or damaged areas where they can chew their way inside.
The key is identifying and identifying every potential entry point, not just the obvious ones. We inspect your entire roofline and identify all vulnerabilities with materials that rodents cannot chew through, ensuring they can’t find alternative routes into your home.
The most common sign is scratching or scurrying sounds in your walls, attic, or ceiling, especially at night when rodents are most active. You might also hear thumping sounds as they move between insulation layers.
Look for small, dark droppings about half an inch long with pointed ends near food sources, in cabinets, or along walls. Fresh droppings appear shiny and dark, while older ones become gray and crumbly.
Other signs include gnaw marks on wires, wood, or stored items, greasy smudge marks along walls where rodents travel, and small holes in food packaging. If you notice a musty odor, especially in enclosed spaces like attics, this often indicates an established infestation with nesting areas.
Professional rodent control in Lacoochee typically ranges from $300 to $500 for basic removal services, but complete exclusion work that prevents future infestations costs between $600 and $1,400 depending on your home’s size and the number of entry points.
The investment is worth it when you consider the alternative costs. Rodent damage to electrical wiring can create fire hazards requiring expensive repairs. Contaminated insulation often needs complete replacement, and structural damage from gnawing can affect your home’s value.
We provide most quotes over the phone after discussing your specific situation, so you’ll know the cost upfront. We also offer special discounts for military families and new homeowners, making professional rodent control more affordable for those who need it most.
DIY methods might catch a few rodents, but they rarely solve the underlying problem because most homeowners can’t identify and identify all entry points effectively. Rodents will continue entering through unidentifyed gaps, making your trapping efforts feel endless.
Professional exclusion requires specialized materials and techniques that withstand Florida’s weather and prevent rodents from chewing through repairs. We use materials like steel mesh and commercial-grade identifyants that aren’t available in hardware stores.
Additionally, handling rodent droppings and contaminated areas poses health risks if not done properly. Rodent waste can contain dangerous pathogens that become airborne when disturbed incorrectly. Professional service ensures safe removal and proper sanitation of affected areas.
We provide 24/7 availability and often schedule same-day appointments for urgent rodent problems in Lacoochee. When you call, you speak directly with owner George Lundin, not a call center, so we can assess your situation immediately.
Most service calls are scheduled within 24 hours of your initial contact. We understand that rodent infestations cause stress and potential health concerns, so we prioritize quick response times, especially for families with children or severe infestations.
Unlike larger companies that might put you on a waiting list, our family-owned approach means we’re personally invested in solving your problem quickly. We don’t charge extra for weekend service calls, and we’ll work around your schedule to provide convenient appointment times.
You work directly with the owner on every service call, ensuring consistent, personalized attention throughout the entire process. George Lundin personally handles consultations, provides quotes, and oversees all work—you never get passed between different technicians or departments.
We focus exclusively on complete exclusion services rather than ongoing treatment contracts that keep you paying monthly fees. Our goal is to permanently solve your rodent problem by identifying every entry point, not create recurring revenue through temporary solutions.
Our 100+ five-star Google reviews and A+ BBB rating reflect our commitment to honest communication and effective results. We offer transparent phone quotes, special discounts for military families and new homeowners, and stand behind our work with genuine care for our community’s families.
