CUSTOMER REVIEWS
Had Tim and Gilbert stop by yesterday for an evaluation and primary service visit. They were both great and easy to talk to. They went over everything they were doing and knocked it out. Also kept things safe for our little pack of wild rabbits that like to hang out. Really happy I worked with Mission Pest Control.

Great service. Our tech, Nick came out when we started our service. Nick is good at listening to which pests and where I have been seeing them and he then follows up with the appropriate treatment. If I see any activity in between services they come out and take care of it.

Signs of a Rodent Infestation
How to Spot Rats, Mice, and Gophers in Your Home
You may be wondering, what does a rodent infestation look like? There are a few key signs to look for that may indicate you have a rodent problem.
- Droppings: Rodents typically leave behind droppings about the size of a grain of rice. If you see small, dark droppings around your home, it may be an indication of a rodent problem.
- Chew marks: Rodents like to chew on things, including wires and wood. So if you see small chew marks around your home, it may indicate a rodent problem.
- Nests: Rodents will often build nests out of materials like paper or insulation. If you find a nest in your home, you could have a rodent infestation.
- Sounds: Rodents are often active at night, so you may hear them scurrying around your home. If you hear noises in your walls or attic, it may be an indication of a rodent problem.
If you see any of these signs, it is important to contact a trusted pest control company as soon as possible. Mission Pest Control can help you eliminate your rodent problem and protect your home from future infestations.
