Signs You May Have a Rodent Infestation
A rodent infestation has 4 main signs: droppings, scratching and scurrying noises, gnaw marks and property damage, and nests and unusual odours. Each sign shows where mice or rats travel, feed, and shelter.
Rodent Droppings
Rodent droppings are the most common sign of mice and rats. Mouse droppings are dark with pointed ends and measure 3 to 6 mm (0.1 to 0.25 in), and rat droppings are thicker and measure about 12 mm (0.5 in). Droppings gather along walls, in cupboards, under sinks, and in garages. Droppings carry bacteria such as salmonella, so wear gloves and a mask during cleanup.
Scratching & Scurrying Noises
Scratching and scurrying noises in walls, ceilings, and attics point to mice or rats on the move. Both rodents are most active between dusk and dawn, so the sounds grow loudest at night. Light, quick sounds point to mice, and heavier thumps point to rats. Call us, if the noises continue for 2 nights in a row.
Gnaw Marks & Property Damage
Mice and rats gnaw wood, plastic, insulation, food packaging, and electrical wires. Gnawed wires cause electrical shorts and fire risk. Mouse gnaw marks are small, about 1 mm (0.04 in) wide, and rat gnaw marks are larger, about 3 mm (0.12 in) wide. Fresh gnaw marks look pale and rough, and old gnaw marks look dark and smooth. Chewed boxes, torn insulation, and holes in cardboard food packages show current activity.
Nests & Unusual Odours
Mice and rats build nests from shredded paper, fabric, and insulation in quiet spots such as wall voids, attics, and storage boxes. Mouse nests are small and round, about 10 cm (4 in) wide, and rat nests are larger and sit in attics, basements, or outdoor burrows. A strong, musty smell of ammonia comes from rodent urine and grows stronger as the rodent population grows. A sharp, rotting smell points to a dead rodent inside a wall or ceiling.
What Happens If You Delay Rodent Control?
Delaying rodent control lets mice and rats multiply, damage more property, and spread through more of the building. A female mouse has up to 10 litters a year with 5 to 6 pups each, so a small problem grows within weeks. Acting early limits damage and stops the infestation from spreading.
Risks of Delaying Rodent Control
- Rodents multiply fast, and 1 female mouse produces up to 60 pups a year.
- Gnawing damages wires, insulation, and wood.
- Droppings and urine contaminate food and living areas.
- Infestations spread into more rooms and wall cavities.
- Costs rise as small infestations grow harder to control.
Benefits of Timely Rodent Control
- Stops the infestation before it grows.
- Limits damage to wires, insulation, and wood.
- Seals entry points before new rodents arrive.
- Protects food and living spaces from contamination.
- Simplifies long-term rodent prevention.

Our Rodent Control Services in Brampton
With 19+ years of pest control experience, our licensed technicians cover every stage of a mouse or rat problem with 3 services, from finding the activity to blocking the next infestation. Each service works for homes, apartments, and businesses across Brampton.
Rodent Inspection & Detection
A licensed technician checks kitchens, basements, garages, attics, and the exterior to find where mice and rats live and travel. The technician looks for 5 types of evidence: droppings, gnaw marks, rub marks, nests, and burrows. A rodent infestation risk assessment then shows where traps and bait stations go.
Rodent Removal & Extermination
Snap traps, tamper-resistant bait stations, and monitoring visits remove mice and rats at the source. Mouse plans place small traps and bait stations along interior walls in kitchens, basements, and attics. Rat plans place larger traps and bait stations along exterior burrows, foundations, sheds, and garbage areas, since rats travel the same routes every day. Our rodent exterminators start with quick-acting traps and wildlife-safe rodent solutions. For raccoons, squirrels, and skunks, we provide wildlife removal in Brampton.
Rodent Exclusion & Prevention
Technicians seal gaps with steel mesh, sealant, and door sweeps, so mice and rats cannot get back inside. They then recommend changes to food storage, garbage, and clutter. A seasonal sealing visit before October keeps rodents out before cold weather arrives.
Our Rodent Control Process in Brampton
Our rodent control process has 5 steps: complete property inspection, identifying entry points and activity, targeted rodent treatment, sealing and rodent-proofing entry points, and follow-up and prevention. Each step ends with a clear report for the property owner.
Complete Property Inspection
Step 1. A licensed technician inspects the interior and exterior of the property, including attics, basements, kitchens, garages, sheds, and crawl spaces. The technician records droppings, gnaw marks, nests, and burrows, and identifies the rodent as a mouse or a rat.
Identify Entry Points & Activity
Step 2. The technician maps the routes rodents travel and the openings they use to get inside. Mice enter through gaps of 6 mm (0.25 in), and rats enter through gaps of 12 mm (0.5 in), so the entry point assessment covers every gap of that size or larger.
Targeted Rodent Treatment
Step 3. We place snap traps and tamper-resistant bait stations along active routes, out of reach of children and pets. The technician chooses the method by rodent type, activity level, and building type.
Seal & Rodent-Proof Entry Points
Step 4. We seal foundation gaps, utility openings, and door edges with steel mesh and sealant. Sealed entry points stop new rodents from replacing the ones removed.
Follow-Up & Prevention
Step 5. Follow-up visits check traps and bait stations, confirm that activity has stopped, and adjust the plan within an integrated pest management (IPM) program. We share prevention steps for food storage, garbage, and landscaping, and properties with repeat activity join a rodent monitoring program.
Rodent Control Pricing in Brampton
Pestagon gives a free rodent control estimate in Brampton, and a technician states the full price before work starts. Rodent control has no flat price list, since every property needs a different plan. Call +1 416-822-2590 for affordable rodent control with a clear estimate.
What Affects Rodent Control Cost?
4 factors affect rodent control cost in Brampton: property size, infestation level, treatment method, and exclusion work. Rat control costs more than mouse control when burrows and exterior shelter need extra work.
Property Size & Infestation Level
A townhouse costs less to inspect and treat than a large detached home or a multi-unit building, since technicians cover fewer rooms and less area. A small mouse problem in 1 room needs fewer stations and visits than activity in the attic, walls, and basement. Infestations that run for months involve more droppings, more routes, and more monitoring visits.
Treatment & Exclusion Requirements
Trapping and bait stations cost less than full rodent-proofing. Sealing a few gaps is a small job, and rodent-proof foundation repairs, roofline work, and attic rodent decontamination add time and material. Each item appears in the estimate, so you approve the work before it begins.

FAQs
How much does rodent control cost in Brampton?
Rodent control cost in Brampton depends on 4 factors: property size, infestation level, treatment method, and exclusion work. A free estimate states the price before work starts. Rat control costs more than mouse control when burrows and exterior shelter need extra work. Call +1 416-822-2590 to book a free estimate.
How do I know if I have mice or rats in my home?
You have mice or rats in your home, if you find any of 5 signs: droppings, gnaw marks, scratching noises, nests, or a musty smell. Mouse droppings measure 3 to 6 mm (0.1 to 0.25 in), and rat droppings measure about 12 mm (0.5 in). A professional rodent inspection confirms the rodent type and the routes it travels.
How do rodents get inside Brampton homes?
Rodents get inside Brampton homes through gaps in foundations, utility openings, garage door edges, vents, rooflines, and worn door sweeps. Mice squeeze through a gap 6 mm (0.25 in) wide, and rats squeeze through a gap 12 mm (0.5 in) wide. Garages and basements are common entry areas.
What is the best way to get rid of rodents?
The best way to get rid of rodents is a 3-part plan: professional inspection, targeted removal, and entry point sealing. Traps and bait stations remove the mice and rats inside, and sealing stops new rodents from entering. Mice and rats need different plans: mouse plans focus on interior routes, and rat plans focus on exterior burrows and shelter. Store-bought traps alone leave entry points open, so rodents return.
Does rodent control include sealing entry points?
Yes, rodent control includes sealing entry points. Technicians seal gaps with steel mesh, concrete patch, and weatherproof sealant, then confirm during follow-up visits that the seals hold. Larger repairs, such as rodent-proof foundation repairs, appear as separate items in the estimate.
How long does professional rodent control take?
Professional rodent control takes 2 to 4 weeks for most mouse problems and longer for rat problems. The first visit covers inspection, trap and bait station placement, and sealing of urgent gaps. Follow-up visits check activity until it stops.
Are rodent control treatments safe for children and pets?
Yes, rodent control treatments are safe for children and pets when licensed technicians apply them. Bait stations are tamper-resistant and sit out of reach of children and pets. Wildlife-safe rodent solutions and quick-acting traps protect non-target animals.
Do you provide rodent control for commercial properties in Brampton?
Yes, we provide commercial rodent control for restaurants, offices, warehouses, retail stores, grocery stores, and hotels in Brampton. Commercial rodent audits and rodent monitoring programs keep each site protected. Rodent control for property managers covers apartment buildings and rental properties.
How can I prevent mice and rats from coming back?
Preventing mice and rats from coming back takes 5 steps: seal entry points, store food in airtight containers, use garbage bins with tight lids, trim shrubs 30 cm (12 in) back from walls, and schedule seasonal rodent inspections. Fall inspections matter most, since mice and rats move indoors from October to March.
