Rodent Control

Rodent Control Services

If you’ve noticed scratching in the walls, droppings in the pantry, or activity in the attic or basement, you’re not alone—rodents become a serious problem in Connecticut homes and businesses, especially as temperatures change and food sources shift.

Verdant Pest Control provides professional rodent control designed to remove current activity and prevent it from coming back. Our approach focuses on the three things that matter most: inspection, control, and exclusion (sealing entry points).

Call today to schedule an inspection and get a clear plan to resolve the issue.

Common Signs of Rodent Activity

Rodents are often heard before they’re seen. Some of the most common warning signs include:

Droppings in kitchens, basements, garages, or storage areas
Scratching or movement in walls/ceilings (often at night)
Gnaw marks on food packaging, wood, or wires
Nesting material (shredded paper, insulation, fabric)
Unusual odors in confined areas (attic, crawlspace, wall voids)
Pets acting unusually focused on a specific area

If you’re seeing any of these, it’s worth getting ahead of the problem early—rodents multiply quickly and damage can escalate fast.

Our Rodent Control Process

1) Inspection & Identification

We start by identifying:

Where rodents are active
What type of rodent you’re dealing with
How they’re getting inside
Conditions that may be attracting them (food, clutter, moisture, entry gaps)

2) Targeted Control

Based on the inspection, we deploy the most effective control plan for your structure and situation. This may include:

Trapping programs
Secured bait stations (when appropriate and safe)
Targeted placement in proven travel routes
Monitoring and follow-up to confirm results

3) Exclusion & Prevention

Catching rodents is only part of the solution. Long-term success comes from closing the door behind them.

We provide guidance (and in many cases, exclusion work) to address:

Gaps around utility lines and penetrations
Door sweeps and garage door vulnerabilities
Foundation openings and siding gaps
Vents and other exterior access points

Rodent Control for Homes

Rodents commonly enter and nest in:

Attics and insulation
Basements and utility rooms
Garages and sheds
Kitchens and pantries
Wall voids and drop ceilings

We’ll help you protect your home, reduce health risks, and prevent property damage—especially in high-risk seasons.

Rodent Control for Businesses

Rodent issues in commercial spaces can create serious disruption and liability—especially for:

Restaurants and food service
Offices and retail spaces
Property management / multi-unit buildings
Warehouses and storage facilities

Verdant Pest Control offers discreet, professional service designed to address activity quickly and maintain a clean, compliant environment.

Rodent Damage Is More Than Just a Nuisance

Rodents can cause:

Electrical damage from chewing wires (fire risk)
Contamination of food and surfaces
Insulation damage and reduced energy efficiency
Odor issues that worsen over time

If you suspect rodents, addressing it early is almost always cheaper (and easier) than waiting.
