Rodent Control
Effective Rodent Solutions For Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Massachusetts, Florida, Kentucky, Indiana & Texas
Rodents are common home invaders that cause a lot of problems when they get inside. Not only are they seriously destructive, but they also spread diseases. If you believe that rodents have gotten into your house, either because you’ve seen one, heard them in your ceiling, found droppings on your countertops, or for some other reason, it’s time to contact Urbanex.
Signs of a Rodent Infestation
Rodent infestations are a common problem in urban areas like Nashville. Here are some telltale signs that you might have unwelcome guests in your home or business:
- Droppings: One of the most obvious signs, rodent droppings are small, dark, and pellet-shaped. They are often found in areas where food is stored, such as kitchens and pantries.
- Gnaw Marks: Rodents constantly gnaw on objects to keep their teeth sharp. Look for chew marks on food packaging, furniture, wiring, and wooden structures.
- Nests: Rodents build nests using shredded paper, fabric, and other soft materials. Nests are typically found in hidden, warm places like behind appliances or inside wall cavities.
- Noises: Scratching, scurrying, or squeaking sounds, especially at night, can indicate the presence of rodents moving around your home.
- Tracks and Runways: Rodents often travel the same paths, leaving greasy marks along walls and floors. You might also see footprints in dusty areas.
- Unusual Pet Behavior: Pets, particularly cats and dogs, might become alert or agitated in areas where rodents are active.
If you notice any of these signs, contact Urbanex in Nashville for a professional inspection and effective rodent control solutions. Don't let a small problem turn into a big infestation—act quickly to protect your home and health.
How to Prevent a Rodent Infestation?
Here are some tips on how to prevent a rodent infestation:
- Seal entry points: Block holes, gaps, and cracks in walls, floors, and foundations to prevent rodents from entering your home.
- Install door sweeps: Ensure doors and windows are properly sealed to block potential rodent entryways.
- Store food properly: Keep food in airtight containers and avoid leaving food or pet food out overnight.
- Keep garbage sealed: Use tightly closed lids on trash bins, and regularly remove garbage from your home.
- Maintain cleanliness: Clean up crumbs, spills, and leftover food immediately, and keep kitchen areas spotless.
- Eliminate clutter: Remove piles of debris, boxes, or other materials where rodents can hide and nest.
- Inspect your home regularly: Check for signs of rodent activity, such as droppings or gnaw marks, to address any issues early.
- Trim vegetation: Keep bushes, trees, and shrubs trimmed back from your house to reduce rodent access.
- Fix leaks: Repair leaking pipes and faucets, as rodents are attracted to moisture.
- Use traps or baits: Strategically place rodent traps in areas where they are likely to enter.
Prevention measures like these help reduce the likelihood of a rodent infestation in your home.
Our Rodent Control Process
-
Free InspectionsThe signs of a rodent infestation are often fairly obvious, but they can also be tucked away in hard to reach areas of your home. That’s why Urbanex provides free rodent inspections before performing any rodent control services for your Nashville home. We’ll look for signs of activity, the rodents themselves, nesting areas, entry points, and conducive conditions.
-
TreatmentFor the most effective results, Urbanex uses a combination of baiting and trapping when performing rodent control. Baiting and trapping at the start allow us to clean out your home of all rodent activity quickly. We then switch to baiting only for long term control.
-
Follow-Up ServiceOur rodent control services are available as a stand-alone service or as an add-on to our general pest control. If done as a stand-alone service, we’ll perform the initial baiting and trapping, perform a follow-up 30 days later, then check the bait stations bi-monthly. We’ll also return in-between service visits to dispose of rodents and reset traps as necessary at no additional cost.

Chris G was so friendly. Being a girl who works from home alone, it means a lot when exterminators are kind and make you feel at ease that they are there to do their job! I never see any bugs in my house and that’s thanks to Chris G!!!
