Signs of a Mouse Infestation
Because mice are nocturnal and elusive, homeowners often hear or smell them before seeing them. Identifying the early warning signs is critical to preventing a small group of intruders from becoming a large-scale infestation that damages your home.
- Droppings: Small, dark pellets found in cupboards, drawers, or along baseboards are the most common indicator of activity.
- Gnaw Marks: Fresh bite marks on food packaging, wooden baseboards, or electrical wires indicate mice are actively sharpening their teeth.
- Strange Noises: Scratching, scurrying, or squeaking sounds coming from walls, ceilings, or attics, particularly at night.
- Nesting Material: Shredded paper, fabric, or dried plant matter gathered in hidden corners suggests a nest is being built.
- Unusual Pet Behavior: Cats or dogs staring intently at a specific wall or barking at furniture may detect rodents you cannot see.
Recognizing these signs early allows for faster intervention. Mice reproduce quickly, so addressing the issue at the first sign of droppings or noise is essential to protecting your family's health and your property's integrity.

The Importance of Professional Control
While setting a snap trap seems simple, DIY mouse control often fails to address the full scope of an infestation. Mice are intelligent and cautious; they can easily evade poorly placed traps or become bait-shy. Furthermore, catching a few mice does not solve the problem if the entry points around your home's foundation or roofline remain open, inviting new rodents to replace the old ones.
The health and safety risks associated with mice are too high to leave to chance. Mice are known carriers of dangerous diseases like Hantavirus and Salmonella, which can spread through their urine and droppings. Additionally, their compulsive need to chew poses a significant fire hazard if they gnaw through electrical wiring inside your walls.
Professional service provides a level of thoroughness that DIY methods cannot match. Experienced technicians understand mouse behaviour and construction vulnerabilities. By combining removal with professional exclusion techniques, we ensure the safety of your home structure and the health of your family, providing a lasting solution rather than a temporary fix.

What do cockroaches eat?
Cockroaches feed on both plants and animals. They will feast on almost anything but especially like sugary foods, grease and fat, starches, and meat products.
They will even eat glue, book bindings, and human hair.
Cockroaches are attracted to decaying plants, rotting trash, compost piles, dog droppings, and cat litter. These unwanted pests are known as the sanitation workers of the animal kingdom. The worse something smells, the more attracted the cockroaches are.
Keeping your home and yard clear of debris and utilizing pest control will help eliminate these pesky critters.

Lifecycle of a Cockroach
Cockroaches go through 3 stages of life: egg, nymph, and adult. Females produce one egg sac each month for ten months. Each sac contains on average 16 eggs. The female cockroach will carry an egg case for several days and will then place it in a safe, damp place.
On average cockroaches live 6 to 15 months depending on the species, moisture, and temperature.

Am I legally obligated to do a new construction treatment?Yes. Here in Texas, it is legally mandated for all new wood constructions to incorporate termite preventive measures. This is not just the case in Texas but in the majority of the country. At least 34 states require some kind of termite treatment for all new wood constructions, and most of these states are in the southern half of the country, where most termite problems occur.
