What Rodent Control with Mosquito Joe looks like

Our goal at Mosquito Joe of Jacksonville-Morehead City is to keep rodents away and off your property. To do so, we use a carefully coordinated strategy:

  • Inspection to identify specific vulnerabilities to rodent entry
  • Trapping rodents to remove them from your property
  • Rodent population evaluation
  • Implementing a rodent barrier around your home
  • Application of rodent repellant

Our methods are all about preventing problems right from the get-go. We aim to keep rodents off your property in the first place because not only are they a nuisance, but they can also wreak some real havoc. They come bearing unwanted gifts like fleas, ticks, allergens, and even some nasty diseases.

As if that wasn’t enough, the problems rodents bring don’t stop when they die. As they start to decompose, the fleas, disease, and especially the odors live on. This can attract other unwanted guests like insects, doubling your woes.

That’s why it’s so important to take control of the issue before things get out of hand. Mosquito Joe builds a fortress around your home in the Jacksonville-Morehead city region that rodents can’t breach. Our solutions consist of natural ingredients that are environmentally friendly and sure to send those pests packing.

Stopping an Infestation in Jacksonville and Morehead City, NC

In our North Carolina area, several factors can drive rats and mice to set up camp on our property. Drenching rain, cold winters, and sizzling summers can all send them looking for shelter and a bite to eat.

Remember, these rascals are smart, determined, and ready to put up a fight, so don’t hesitate to call in the pros at Mosquito Joe of Jacksonville-Morehead City. We’ll show those rodents who’s boss.

The secret to outsmarting these furry invaders is to make your property less appealing and harder to access. Here are some tactics to follow that start at the heart of your home and work outwards:

  • Always clean up spilled food and water in the kitchen. Store all food in air-tight containers.

  • Keep kitchen garbage in containers with tight-fitting lids.

  • Pick up pet food dishes and water when not actively in use.

  • Patch and repair any holes, however small, in walls between rooms, between the garage and the attic, or leading outdoors. Pay particularly close attention to the back of cupboards and closets, vents, and around window casings.

  • Inspect all vents, especially along the roof, to be sure the vent covers fit properly and are in good condition.

  • Stop feeding wild birds. Spilled seed attracts and feeds rats and mice.

  • When adding food scraps to the compost, always turn the compost to cover any food scraps fully.

  • Prune any branches that overhang your roof, or that grow close to the roof. Pick up fallen fruit or vegetables in the garden.

  • Keep the grass mowed short, trim shrubs, and remove leaf litter and clutter that can provide shelter.

  • Hire a professional pest control company, like Mosquito Joe of Jacksonville-Morehead City to examine your property and curtail the rodent population.
