Rodent & Wildlife Control

Keep Your Home & Business Pest-Free

Rats, mice, and nuisance wildlife are a year-round problem in the Rio Grande Valley. Irrigation canals, mature landscaping, and mild winters give rodents and wildlife easy access to attics, garages, and crawl spaces. Beyond the property damage (chewed wiring, insulation, structural gaps), rodents carry real health risks, including salmonella and hantavirus exposure.

Pest Pros handles both ends of the problem: removing what’s already inside, and sealing the entry points that let it happen again. Our technicians are trained in humane trapping and exclusion methods, and every rodent and wildlife service includes an inspection to identify how animals are getting in, not just where they’re showing up.

Our Rodent & Wildlife Control Services

Bi-Monthly Rodent Bait Control – Routine bait station servicing for properties with light-to-moderate rodent activity. Stations are checked and refreshed on a consistent schedule to catch new activity early.
Monthly Rodent Control
For properties with higher rodent pressure, our monthly program adds full inspections and exclusion work — sealing gaps, vents, and utility penetrations — on top of standard baiting.
Opossum Trapping
Humane live-trapping for opossums causing damage or getting into trash, gardens, or crawl spaces.
Opossum Exclusion
Once opossums are removed, we identify and seal the entry points that let them in — under decks, through foundation gaps, or damaged vent covers — so the problem doesn’t repeat with the next animal.
Follow-Up Service
A return visit to confirm the issue is fully resolved and exclusion work is holding, included with every rodent/wildlife service plan.
Large Animal Trap
Humane trapping for raccoons, armadillos, and similar nuisance wildlife causing yard or structural damage.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I have rats or mice versus another animal?
Common signs includes scratching sounds in walls or attics at night, droppings near food storage or baseboards, and gnaw marks on wiring or packaging. A free inspection can confirm exactly what you’re dealing with.

How long does exclusion last?
Exclusion materials (mesh, sealant, vent covers) are built to hold long-term, but we recommend an annual check since foundations and structures shift over time.
