You’ll finally get a full night’s sleep without those unsettling scratching noises overhead. No more worrying about chewed wires causing electrical fires or rats contaminating your food.
Your attic stays clean and damage-free. Your family stays healthy and protected from the diseases these pests carry.
That constant stress about whether the problem is getting worse? Gone. You’ll have complete confidence knowing the rats are eliminated for good and can’t return.
We’ve been protecting Pine Island families from rodent infestations with proven, permanent solutions. As a family-owned business, you work directly with the owner—no middlemen, no runaround.
We understand Pine Island’s unique challenges. The elevated structures, palm trees, and waterfront properties create perfect conditions for roof rats year-round.
Our state-certified team responds 24/7, even on weekends. Most quotes are provided right over the phone, and we offer special discounts for military families and new homeowners.
First, we conduct a thorough inspection of your entire property, from ground level to roofline. We locate every entry point, identify nesting areas, and assess the full scope of your rodent problem.
Next, we eliminate existing rats using targeted trapping methods—never poison that leaves dead rats rotting in your walls. We remove all captured rodents and sanitize affected areas.
Finally, we permanently identify every potential entry point with steel mesh and professional-grade materials. Rats can squeeze through openings as small as a quarter, so we identify gaps around pipes, vents, roof lines, and utility connections. This prevents future infestations completely.

Your service includes comprehensive inspection, humane trapping, complete rodent removal, and permanent exclusion work. We also provide attic cleanup and insulation replacement when needed.
Pine Island’s fishing industry, marinas, and agricultural operations create additional pest pressure that most areas don’t face. Properties near working waterfronts see more rodent activity from bait shops and fish cleaning stations.
We understand these local conditions. We know roof rats travel on Pine Island’s utility lines, nest in palm trees, and target elevated structures. We tailor our approach specifically for island living, ensuring your waterfront or agricultural property stays protected year-round.
Roof rats are excellent climbers that use Pine Island’s palm trees, utility lines, and overhanging branches to reach your roof. They squeeze through gaps as small as a quarter around roof vents, soffit areas, and where utilities enter your home.
Pine Island’s elevated structures make this problem worse. Many homes are built on pilings or have elevated designs that give rats easy access underneath and up into attics.
We locate every entry point during our inspection and identify them permanently with steel mesh and professional materials that rats cannot chew through.
The most obvious sign is scratching or scurrying noises in your attic or walls at night—roof rats are nocturnal. You might also find small, pointed droppings about half an inch long in your attic, along baseboards, or near food sources.
Look for gnaw marks on wood, wires, or stored items. Rats constantly chew to keep their teeth from overgrowing. You may also notice grease marks along walls where rats repeatedly travel the same paths.
If you see actual rats running along power lines, tree branches, or your roof at dusk, you likely have an established colony that needs immediate professional attention.
Most Pine Island homes can be completely rodent-proofed in 1-2 visits, depending on the size of your property and extent of the infestation. The initial inspection and trapping setup typically takes 2-3 hours.
We return within a week to remove captured rodents and complete the exclusion work. Sealing all entry points usually takes another 2-4 hours, depending on your home’s design and how many access points we find.
For larger properties or severe infestations, the process might take an additional visit, but most customers see complete elimination within 10-14 days of starting treatment.
Poison creates more problems than it solves. Poisoned rats crawl into wall voids or deep into your attic to die, where you can’t reach them. The smell of decomposing rats becomes unbearable and can last for weeks.
You might also poison mother rats, leaving baby rats to die and rot throughout your attic. This creates multiple odor sources that are nearly impossible to locate and remove.
Professional trapping allows us to remove every rat immediately and sanitize the area. You never have to deal with terrible odors or the health risks of decomposing rodents in your living space.
Pine Island’s fishing industry, marinas, and agricultural operations attract more rodents than typical residential areas. Bait shops, fish cleaning stations, and fruit farms provide abundant food sources that draw rats from miles away.
The island’s palm trees, utility lines, and elevated home construction create perfect highways for roof rats to travel and access attics. Properties near working waterfronts face constant pressure from new rodents moving in.
We understand these unique challenges and adjust our approach accordingly. We focus heavily on exclusion work and ongoing monitoring to handle the continuous pressure that island properties face.
Most Pine Island rodent control projects range from $300-800 depending on your home’s size, the severity of the infestation, and how much exclusion work is needed. We provide most quotes right over the phone after asking a few key questions.
Larger homes or properties with extensive entry points may cost more, but we’re always transparent about pricing upfront. We offer special discounts for military families and new homeowners.
The investment is minimal compared to the damage rats can cause—chewed wires, contaminated insulation, and structural damage often cost thousands to repair. Professional elimination and exclusion prevent these expensive problems completely.
