We’ve been protecting Powell, FL families from rodent invasions with the kind of personal service you can’t get from the big chains. When you call, you’re talking directly to the owner—not some call center.
We’ve earned over 100 five-star Google reviews by doing exactly what we say we’ll do, when we say we’ll do it, for the price we quoted. No surprises, no upselling, no runaround.
Our state-certified team understands how Florida’s climate creates perfect conditions for roof rats, house mice, and other rodents to thrive. We’ve seen every type of infestation Powell homes face, and we know exactly how to stop them permanently.
First, we inspect every inch of your property to find exactly how rodents are getting in and where they’re nesting. Most companies miss the subtle entry points that keep infestations coming back—we don’t.
Next, we trap and remove every rodent currently in your home using proven methods that work fast. No poison that leaves dead animals rotting in your walls, just effective trapping that gets results you can see.
Finally, we identify every entry point with materials rodents can’t chew through. This exclusion work is what separates a temporary fix from a permanent solution. We don’t just remove the rodents—we make sure they can’t return.

Your rodent control service includes thorough inspection, humane trapping, complete exclusion work, and damage assessment—all backed by our guarantee. We handle roof rats, house mice, squirrels, and any other rodents invading Powell homes.
In Powell’s humid climate, rodents seek shelter year-round, not just during winter months like northern areas. Our local expertise means we know exactly where to look for entry points specific to Florida construction styles and weather patterns.
We also provide rodent damage repair services, from replacing chewed insulation to fixing gnawed electrical wires. Many Powell homeowners discover extensive damage once the rodents are gone—we handle those repairs too, so you’re not juggling multiple contractors.
The most obvious signs include scratching or scurrying sounds in walls or attic spaces, especially at night when rodents are most active. You might find small, dark droppings along baseboards, in cabinets, or near food sources—mouse droppings are about the size of rice grains, while rat droppings are larger and more oval-shaped.
Other clear indicators include gnaw marks on food packaging, furniture, or electrical wires, plus greasy smear marks along walls where rodents travel repeatedly. In Powell’s humid climate, you might also notice a musky, ammonia-like odor that gets stronger over time as the infestation grows.
If you see one rodent during daylight hours, that usually means the population has grown large enough that they’re competing for resources and venturing out when they normally wouldn’t.
Roof rats are the biggest problem in Powell and throughout Central Florida. These agile climbers easily access attics through roof vents, gaps under roof tiles, or overhanging tree branches. They’re excellent at finding tiny openings and can squeeze through holes smaller than a quarter.
House mice are also common, especially in kitchens, pantries, and areas where food is stored. Unlike roof rats that prefer higher areas, mice typically stay closer to ground level but can still access upper floors through wall voids.
Squirrels become problematic during nesting seasons, often tearing into attic spaces and causing significant insulation damage. Florida’s year-round breeding season means rodent problems don’t disappear in winter like they might in colder climates.
Rodent control costs depend on the size of your home, severity of the infestation, and amount of exclusion work needed. Most Powell homeowners invest between $300-$800 for comprehensive service, though larger homes or severe infestations may cost more.
The investment pays for itself quickly when you consider the damage rodents cause—chewed electrical wires can lead to house fires, gnawed plumbing creates expensive leaks, and contaminated insulation requires costly replacement. We’ve seen Powell homeowners spend thousands repairing rodent damage that could have been prevented.
We provide most quotes over the phone after discussing your specific situation, so you know what to expect before we arrive. We also offer discounts for new homeowners and military families as part of our commitment to the Powell community.
Most rodent infestations in Powell homes are resolved within 1-2 weeks for the trapping phase, though the timeline depends on the population size and species involved. Roof rats are typically trapped faster than mice because they’re less cautious about new objects in their environment.
The exclusion work—identifying entry points—usually happens during the same visit as trap installation, so your home is protected immediately. We continue monitoring and adjusting traps until we’re certain all rodents are eliminated, which might take a few follow-up visits.
The key is acting quickly once you notice signs of rodents. Powell’s warm climate means rodents breed year-round, so a small problem becomes a major infestation much faster than in colder regions. Early intervention saves time, money, and prevents extensive property damage.
When exclusion work is done properly, rodents can’t return to the same entry points. However, they’re persistent and will search for new ways in, especially during Florida’s rainy season when they seek dry shelter, or when nearby food sources change.
This is why thorough exclusion work is crucial—we identify every potential entry point with materials rodents can’t chew through, not just the obvious holes. Many companies skip this step and only focus on trapping, which leads to recurring problems.
We back our exclusion work with a guarantee because we’re confident in our methods. If rodents find a way back in through an area we identifyed, we return at no charge to fix the problem. Most of our Powell customers never see rodents again after our comprehensive treatment.
We strongly recommend against using poison inside your home, especially in Powell’s climate where decomposition happens quickly. Poisoned rodents often die in wall voids, attics, or other inaccessible areas, creating terrible odors and attracting insects.
Poison also poses serious risks to children, pets, and non-target wildlife. In Powell’s suburban environment, poisoned rodents can be consumed by owls, hawks, or neighborhood cats, potentially harming these beneficial animals.
Professional trapping is safer, more effective, and gives you immediate confirmation that rodents are being eliminated. You’ll see exactly how many we’ve caught and know when the problem is resolved, rather than wondering if poison is working or just making rodents sick enough to hide deeper in your home.
