Solving this Common Pest Problem Starts and Stops with JP Pest Services.
If you live in New England, the chances of having a rodent issue are high. Mice and rats have become exceptionally common and they are notorious for seeking shelter inside homes. Rodents go beyond just being a nuisance pest issue; they pose serious health and safety risks.
They are also capable of significant damages resulting in value depreciation of your property. Rodent populations have risen in both rural and urban New England, making them among our most frequent service calls.
Mice and rats alike are particularly difficult pests due to rapid reproduction and their uncanny ability to gain access to almost any structure. A single rodent sighting is typically an indicator of a much larger population within a structure.

Professional Rodent Pest Control Services
When it comes to rodent control services, experience matters. Rodents can enter through the smallest gaps, making it difficult to completely seal of a home or business without expert help. Our trained technicians know how to find and block entry points, remove attractants, and deploy targeted solutions that align with the complexity of the issue.
It doesn’t matter if you're dealing with a few mice in the attic or a widespread infestation, we tailor our rodent pest control approach to the specific needs of your property. Services may include exterior bait stations, interior trapping, sanitation recommendations, and exclusion work to reduce the chance of future activity. Professional services reduce health risks, prevent property damage, and protect your space long-term.
DIY approaches can often discount the bigger picture. Rodents breed quickly, and failure to deal with entry points or food access, can hasten a new infestation. Store-bought traps and sprays don’t get to the root of a rodent problem, which is why we recommend professional services.

We identify and treat hidden nesting sites and seal off pathways rodents use to access your property. Businesses can benefit from ongoing monitoring to catch early signs of a rodent problem, while homeowners can rest easy, knowing their private space is protected.

Rodent Hot Spots
Rodents are content hiding just about anywhere but residential homes are especially attractive since they offer abundant food, water, and shelter. Common entry points are small holes or gaps in roofing, rafters, gables, eaves, around windows, around doors, around the foundation, attic and crawl space vents, under doors, around holes for electrical, plumbing, cable, and gas lines. Once rodents are inside a home, common locations for activity are:
- Attics
- Wall voids
- Crawl spaces
- Basements
- Air ducts or venting systems
- Insulation
Dangers in a Home
Rodents can carry and transmit diseases to humans, most commonly through contact with their droppings. These droppings contain allergens and bacteria like salmonella, and can also carry the less common but serious hantavirus.
Rodents are notorious chewers, and their damage to electrical wiring is especially dangerous. By stripping protective insulation from wires, they create a significant fire hazard. In fact, it’s estimated that rodents cause about 25% of house fires with unknown origins.

Common Rodent Issues We Treat
Rodents don’t stay in one place for long. Once inside, they explore your home or building for warmth, shelter, and food sources. That leads to problems like chewed wiring, droppings in storage areas, and scratching sounds behind walls.
We respond to a wide range of rodent issues, from mice in basements and garages to rats nesting in rooflines. Rodents move fast, reproduce quickly, and often go unnoticed until there’s a large-scale infestation. Our job is to help stop the spread before it gets worse.
Our rodent exterminator team focuses on what’s happening now and what could happen later. We help seal entry points, remove access to food and water, and place targeted solutions where they matter most. Each service is designed to reduce risk and remove the stress of an infestation.
