Confirming it's mice
The reliable signs: small dark droppings in cabinets, along baseboards, or near food storage; gnaw marks on packaging, wood, or wiring; scratching or movement sounds in walls and ceilings at night; and nesting material like shredded paper or insulation in undisturbed spots.
Why a few traps rarely solve it
Catching one or two mice feels like progress, but mice get in through gaps you haven't found — around utility lines, under doors, through foundation cracks. Until entry points are identified and the full extent of activity is mapped, new mice replace the ones you catch. Effective rodent control combines trapping, monitoring, and closing the ways in.
How professional rodent control works at Peski
Active rodent problems always start with a free in-person inspection. A licensed technician inspects inside and outside to find activity, entry points, and harborage, then confirms the exact treatment plan and price before any work begins — nothing starts silently, and the inspection booking itself is $0.
Treatment typically combines trapping, baiting, and monitoring, with a follow-up visit to confirm activity has stopped. Where needed, minor accessible entry-point sealing can be added to keep rodents out.
If you don't have activity right now
Rodent prevention — keeping it that way — is covered by the Peski Shield plan. Prevention and active treatment are different services, and the inspection is what tells you which one you need.
