Mice and rats represent severe structural and sanitation threats when they gain access to your property. In Southeast Michigan, Norway rats, roof rats, and house mice frequently invade attics, crawlspaces, basements, and wall cavities searching for food, shelter, and warmth. A single female mouse can produce up to 10 litters a year, causing a small nesting pair to rapidly escalate into a widespread infestation across your living space or commercial facility.
Rats and mice constantly gnaw on hard materials to keep their continuously growing incisors down. They chew through electrical wiring, structural timber, drywall, and insulation, creating major fire hazards and costly building damage. In addition, rodents contaminate food prep surfaces, pantry goods, and air ducts with droppings, urine, and hair. They also carry dangerous pathogens like Hantavirus, Leptospirosis, and Salmonella, along with secondary pests like fleas and ticks that put your family or customers at risk.
Snap traps and store-bought poison baits don’t solve rodent problems completely. Over-the-counter traps only catch individual foraging mice while leaving the main nesting colony undisturbed inside walls or ceilings. In addition, improperly placed baits can lead to dead rodents decaying behind drywall, causing foul odors and secondary pest infestations. Effective control requires identifying hidden entry points and sealing structural gaps. If you notice dark droppings, gnaw marks, or scratching sounds inside walls, reach out to R.J.’s Pest Control right away for a comprehensive inspection.

Solve Your Pest Problem
Professional exterminators conduct a full property inspection to identify entry points, nesting zones, and high-traffic runways. Technicians place tamper-resistant bait stations and strategic traps in concealed areas, followed by complete exclusion repairs to seal gaps along foundations, vents, and rooflines.
DIY traps only catch individual foraging rodents without addressing the main colony nesting inside walls or attics. Rats and mice reproduce faster than basic traps can catch them, and rodents quickly learn to avoid unbaited or poorly placed traps.
Common indicators include small dark droppings along baseboards or in cabinets, gnaw marks on food packaging and wood, oily smudge marks along walls, shredded insulation material, and scratching noises inside walls or ceilings at night.
