WHY US?
Rodents Pose Risks
Why Effective Rodent Removal is Essential for Your Health and Safety
Rodents have, in fact, been responsible for some of human history’s worst outbreaks of disease, spread through feces and fleas that fed on rats. Diseases range from lymphocytic choriomeningitis to hantavirus, salmonella, dysentery, mycoplasma, leptospirosis, and more. That alone is a reason to reach out for professional rodent control. On top of spreading disease, rodents damage property as they gnaw through wood, plastic piping—even electrical wires. This can lead to unsanitary leaks and flooding, damaged drywall, and house fires. Waynes’ rodent control in Montgomery gets your infestations under control.
Signs of a Rat Infestation in Your Montgomery Home
Like other critters, rats are drawn to food, water, and shelter, lingering where they find opportunities. It can help to keep food (for people and pets) in hard-to-get places, fix leaks, remove standing water, and so forth. But, let’s face it. Rodents will even eat cables and wires! As for shelter, rodents are less problematic in the summer as they may prefer being outdoors but will seek winter refuge.
If rodents invade your property, you’ll likely see the following signs:
- Thin feces (tapered on one side)
- Chewing sounds coming from ceilings, walls, or floors
- Teeth marks in wood, plastic, cables, and even metal
- Ammonia odor
- Squeaking sounds around their nest; when on the prowl, they tend to be silent
If you suspect a rodent presence, use our online Waynes Pest Control form to contact our rodent exterminators online, or call us at (205) 259-2000.

MOSQUITO CONTROL
Rodent Removal & Rat Trapping in Montgomery
Because rats and mice are so problematic, rodent control has served as a core part of Wayne’s pest control services from the start (and continues to be today). Rodents damage homes significantly and spread diseases and fleas (which is why we offer rodent and pest control combined). Then, the fleas themselves can spread pathogens even further. To solve the problem, Waynes takes rats, mice, and pests associated with them out of the equation in even the most complex situations. Steps include:
- Thorough inspection and analysis of your home and property
- Identifying potential entry points and rodent nesting locations
- Eliminating infestations through environmentally-friendly, mess-free traps
Then, our professionals will perform rodent removal services with rats and mice caught in our odorless, sightless traps.
Commercial enterprises benefit from our SmartPest control services that use sensors to monitor infestations with data continuously fed to Waynes’ smart data hub. Meanwhile, our non-toxic traps take care of the rodent problems with regular inspections allowing you to relax, focusing on your business.

Rat and Mice Species: The Usual Montgomery Rodent Suspects
Each rodent type has numerous species with several of them found in Montgomery. Here are the ones commonly handled by Waynes Pest Control:
- Rats: Brown rats and roof rats (black rats/ship rats) often live at the ground level or in basements. However, some prefer living in attics.
- Mice: The house mouse is the most common, chewing its way through homes, but other species are also common: various deer mice, meadow jumping mice, and harvest mice.
Our skilled Montgomery pest control professionals will identify the species and use appropriate tactics to get them out, including combined rodent and pest control services as needed.
Rodent Prevention After Removal
Keeping Your Home Rodent-Free
Once you’ve used our rodent removal services (or are otherwise rodent-free), it’s time for efficient and effective rodent control in Montgomery to keep the critters out. There’s never a guarantee that uninvited rodents won’t show up at your home or business, but preventive techniques go a long way to make your property less attractive to them. Tips include the following:
- Clean up after meals, making sure no scraps are left behind. Rodents will feast on crumbs and dirty dishes.
- Use airtight containers to store food, making it more difficult for rodents to get to their free dinner.
- Take the trash out regularly, placing cans away from your home’s foundation.
- Vacuum and mop to clean and sanitize dirty surfaces.
- Inspect your home for gaps and holes. Rodents can slither through small, seemingly impossible, openings. (Plus, they don’t mind making their own!) Seal up openings you find.
- Place screens over ventilation areas and chimneys.
- Reduce moisture in humid areas as possible.
- Keep shrubbery trimmed back from your home and avoid stacking firewood by a wall to reduce places rodents can hide.
