Rats and mice are more than just a nuisance—they chew through walls, contaminate food, and pose serious health risks to families. Florida’s climate and dense landscaping make homes especially vulnerable to rodent intrusions. At Cadenhead Services Pest Control, we provide safe, discreet rodent control solutions for homes across Crestview and the surrounding areas, focusing on both removal and long-term prevention.
Common Rodents in Florida Homes
Our rodent control service targets the most common intruders in residential settings:
- Roof rats – Agile climbers that nest in attics, walls, and rooflines
- Norway rats – Larger ground-dwelling rats that burrow near foundations and basements
- House mice – Small rodents that reproduce rapidly and nest in insulation, drawers, or cabinets
Rodents often enter homes through small cracks, roof vents, or garage doors, especially in search of food or warmth.
Risks of Rodent Infestations
- Property damage: Rodents chew through wires, wood, and insulation, creating fire and structural risks
- Health hazards: They carry diseases like leptospirosis, hantavirus, and salmonella
- Food contamination: Droppings and urine can spoil food and trigger asthma/allergy issues
- Reproduction speed: A pair of rats can produce dozens of offspring within a few months
Our Rodent Control Process
Our approach is designed to eliminate the active infestation and prevent recurrence.
- Inspection – Locate entry points, nesting areas, and signs of rodent activity
- Trapping & Removal – Use humane traps and targeted baiting where necessary
- Exclusion – Seal gaps, vents, and access points using rodent-proof materials
- Sanitation & Monitoring – Offer cleanup guidance and ongoing checkups for high-risk areas
Our goal is to solve the problem at the source—not just react to symptoms.
