Hearing scratching sounds in your walls at night? Finding mouse droppings in your kitchen cabinets? At RECON Pest Services, we know how disgusting and dangerous rodent problems can get. These pests contaminate food, chew through wires, and multiply faster than you can catch them.

Our rodent exterminator services eliminate entire populations, not just the mice and rats you see running around. These prolific breeders can turn a small problem into a major infestation in weeks. We find their nests, seal their entry points, and stop new ones from moving in.

Nebraska’s cold winters drive rodents indoors seeking warmth and food. They squeeze through gaps smaller than a dime and set up breeding colonies in your walls, attic, and basement. Once established, rodent populations explode—a pair of mice can become 2,000 in one year.

Rodent Pest Control Services

We handle every type of rodent problem Nebraska properties face:

  • Mouse Exterminator services target house mice that contaminate food and spread diseases. These small gray pests breed incredibly fast and hide in tiny spaces throughout your home.
  • Rat Control eliminates Norway rats and roof rats that cause serious property damage. These large rodents chew through wood, insulation, and electrical wires, creating fire hazards.
  • Basement Rodent Elimination focuses on underground areas where rats and mice build nests near water heaters, storage areas, and foundation cracks.
  • Attic Rodent Control handles rodents living in insulation and roof spaces. They contaminate stored items and leave droppings that create health hazards.
  • Restaurant Rodent Programs prevent health department failures with aggressive treatments designed for commercial kitchens and food service areas.
  • Warehouse Rodent Services protect inventory from contamination and damage. Large storage areas need specialized baiting and monitoring systems.
  • Farm Rodent Management controls rodent populations in barns, grain storage, and livestock areas where traditional methods often fail.
  • Emergency Rodent Response handles urgent situations where rodents threaten health inspections, business operations, or family safety.

Rodent Exterminator: Dealing with Different Types of Rodents

Each rodent species needs different control approaches based on its behavior:

  • House mice are small and curious. They explore new areas quickly and eat many small meals throughout the night. They nest in wall voids and multiply extremely fast.
  • Norway rats are large and cautious. They avoid new objects for days and prefer ground-level areas like basements and crawl spaces. They’re stronger and more aggressive than mice.
  • Roof rats are excellent climbers that nest in attics and upper areas. They travel along power lines and tree branches to reach roofs and enter through small openings.
  • Deer mice carry dangerous diseases and prefer rural areas. They nest in storage sheds, cabins, and outbuildings that sit unused for months.

All rodent types contaminate far more food than they eat. They leave urine trails everywhere they travel, and their droppings carry bacteria and viruses that make people sick.

Frequently Asked Questions

General Rodent Control

How fast do mice and rats multiply?
Mice can have babies every 20 days, with 4–8 babies per litter. One pair can become 2,000 mice in a year if left alone.
Do rodents carry diseases?
Yes, they spread over 35 diseases through droppings, urine, and bites. Some are serious, like salmonella and hantavirus, that can make people very sick.
Why do I hear rodents at night?
They’re nocturnal and most active when it’s dark and quiet. Daytime activity usually means populations are so large they’re competing for food.
Can rodents chew through walls?
They chew through wood, drywall, and plastic with no problem. They can’t chew metal or glass, but they find cracks around these things.
How small of a hole can rodents fit through?
Mice fit through holes the size of a dime. Rats need holes about as big as a quarter. If their head goes through, their body will too.

Treatment and Prevention

How long does it take to eliminate rodents?
Most rodent problems clear up in 2–4 weeks with proper treatment. Large infestations or hard-to-reach areas might take longer.
Why can't I just use poison from the store?
Store poisons are weak, and rodents often become bait-shy after trying them. They also create dead rodents in walls that smell terrible.
Will dead rodents smell up my house?
Not if we place baits correctly. We use tamper-proof stations and know where rodents go to die. Professional placement prevents odor problems.
Are rodent treatments safe around pets?
We use locked bait stations that pets can’t access. All our treatments follow strict safety guidelines to protect your family and animals.
Can rodents come back after treatment?
Yes, if entry points aren’t sealed. We find and close their access points as part of every treatment program to prevent future invasions.

Specific Rodent Issues

I only see one mouse—do I have an infestation?
If you see one, there are probably many more hiding. Mice are secretive and only come out when they feel safe or when populations get large.
Do ultrasonic devices work on rodents?
No, they don’t work reliably. Rodents get used to the sounds quickly, and they don’t penetrate walls where rodents often live.
Can rodents climb up smooth walls?
Mice can climb almost any surface. Rats are good climbers too, but prefer areas with texture to grip. Both can jump surprisingly high distances.
What's the difference between mouse and rat droppings?
Mouse droppings are small, like rice grains. Rat droppings are larger, about the size of raisins. Fresh droppings are dark and soft.
Why do rodents chew on wires?
Their teeth grow constantly, and they need to chew to keep them worn down. Wires are convenient and accessible in wall voids where they live.
