Residential Rat Removal in Oakwood
Most of our Oakwood customers are homeowners dealing with rats in the attic or crawl space. The housing stock here ranges from 1960s ranches to new builds, and each type has its own vulnerabilities. Older homes have open crawl spaces and original vents. Newer homes have soffit gaps and vinyl siding that roof rats exploit. We treat every home like it is our own. That means sealing entry points, not just trapping. It means cleaning up droppings and contaminated insulation. And it means explaining what we found so you understand the problem.
We inspect every corner of your Oakwood attic and crawl space with flashlights and mirrors. We look for droppings, runs, entry points, and damage. You get a written report with photos and a clear scope of work.
We set Victor snap traps, Havahart live traps, and Catchmaster glue boards on the runs. Traps are checked every two to four days. We remove the rats and dispose of them properly. Most Oakwood homes are clear within two weeks.
We seal every gap with copper mesh, steel wool, hardware cloth, and exclusion sealant. Foundation vents get hardware cloth. Plumbing penetrations get packed and sealed. Our exclusion work carries a one-year warranty.
We remove contaminated insulation and dispose of it properly. Then we apply disinfectant and deodorizer. If needed, we install new insulation and a vapor barrier. This step protects your health and your home's energy efficiency.
- Same-day service available for most Oakwood calls, including nights and weekends.
- Written scope and upfront pricing before any work begins.
- One-year warranty on exclusion work, so you are covered if rats return.
