Rodent control in the San Fernando Valley

Rodent control here is a trap setting program, not a single visit. Choose the one week program, three visits, or the one month program, five visits, and we will set traps, map entry points, and clear catches every time we are on site. We also quote proofing the exact holes and offer attic droppings cleanup and sanitization. Rats are not part of regular service. Our trapping program is quoted on its own and covers two areas, like the attic and the sub area or the interior and the sub area, and it is three visits: we set the traps, come back about four days later to check them, and again about four days after that to check and pull them.

How it works here

Three steps, no mystery spray

The same method on every rats and mice job since 2005, with a 30 day guarantee on the end of it.

  1. 101

    Inspect and map

    We walk the attic, crawlspace, garage and exterior to find entry points and gauge how much activity is actually happening before we set a single trap.

  2. 202

    Trap and clear

    Across the one week or one month program we set traps, check them on every visit, and remove catches so the problem does not sit and smell in a wall or attic.

  3. 303

    Proof and clean up

    We quote sealing the exact holes we mapped, and where droppings have piled up in the attic we offer cleanup and sanitization so the space is livable again.

Safe for your family

What we use, and where

Traps are the main tool for general rodent work, checked and cleared on every scheduled visit so nothing sits decomposing in a wall. Never handle droppings barehanded, they can carry disease, and we handle that cleanup as part of the sanitization service. Where bait is called for we use it in locked, tamper resistant stations away from kids and pets.

Which plan

Most rodent jobs start with the one week program, three visits, and step up to the one month program if activity is heavier than expected. "Trapping without proofing the holes just invites the next one in," says Sam Karbelnig, owner.

They helped us with a protracted roach problem. The owner took the time to talk through the issue with us for a long time. He was the only company that said we didn't need to get on a multi year contract. They ended up coming three times and I haven't seen new roaches for months. Thank you for your excellent customer service and thoroughness.

This review is long overdue. Facility is simply the best local company out there. It took me years to find a reliable, effective and cost efficient company that was easy to deal with any time I needed something extra. Sam, the owner, cares so much about all his clients and makes sure that each is taken care of. Don't look any further for your next pest control company.

Facility Pest Control responded to me quickly, gave me an estimate, and offered a fair price. The technician who came out was great to work with, communicated what he would be doing, and accommodated our requests to focus on certain problem areas. The spraying so far seems very effective.

Questions

Rats and mice questions, answered

Sam Karbelnig
Reviewed by Sam Karbelnig, owner, treating Valley homes since 2005. Last updated September 2026.
What does rodent control actually include?

It includes an inspection, trap setting through either a one week program (three visits) or a one month program (five visits), entry point mapping, and removal of catches at every visit. We also quote proofing the exact holes we find and offer attic droppings cleanup and sanitization.

How do I know if I need professional rodent control?

Droppings in the attic or under the sink, scratching in the walls at night, chew marks on wiring or packaging, and small holes around the roofline or garage door are all signs. Rodents multiply fast, so it is worth calling as soon as you notice activity.

What is the difference between the one week and one month programs?

The one week program runs three visits over about a week, the one month program runs five visits over about a month. More visits mean more chances to catch a heavier or more established population, and we will recommend which one fits what we find during inspection.

Why do I need proofing if you already trapped the rodents?

Trapping clears what is already inside, but the holes that let them in are still open. We map the exact entry points during service and give you a written estimate to seal them, since that is what actually keeps the next rodent out.

What happens to the droppings in my attic?

Droppings can carry disease, so we do not recommend handling them yourself. We offer attic droppings cleanup and sanitization as part of getting the space back to a safe, livable condition after activity is cleared.

Are your rodent control methods safe for my family and pets?

Yes. Traps are checked and cleared on every visit, and any bait we use goes into locked, tamper resistant stations placed away from where kids and pets can reach them. We will walk you through exactly what was placed and where.

Why should I choose Facility Pest Control for rodent control?

We have run trap setting programs in the Valley since 2005 and we map entry points instead of just setting traps and hoping. You get a written proofing estimate, catches removed on every visit, and attic cleanup when droppings have piled up.

How much does rat trapping cost?

The trapping program is quoted on its own and covers two areas, such as the attic and the sub area or the interior and the sub area. That is three visits: we set the traps, check them about four days later, and check and pull them about four days after that. Rats are not part of regular service, they are quoted as their own job.

How to Recognize Rodent Control Issues

Spotting animal droppings in an attic or crawlspace is a tell-tale sign that they are in the area. Never touch droppings with your bare hands as they can contain potentially deadly diseases. The fleas and ticks that feed on the blood can also be brought into your home. Other ways to spot their activity include small chew marks or entry holes around the perimeter of your home. Mice are incredibly adept at getting into your home through even the tiniest of holes. Once they find a nice cozy spot, it make a nest and take up residence.

Preventing Rodent Infestations

The key to keeping them out of your home for the long haul is to create a plan to repel them. Walking the exterior of your property, look for small holes or gaps in your walls, crawlspace, or attic. Your garage door may also have gaps if you have an uneven floor that a mouse can easily crawl under. Our technicians have sharp eyes for these entrance points and can recommend the best ways to seal them off.

Once your home or business has been proofed, trapping and removing dead helps ensure the infestation does not reoccur. The best way to reduce the potential for damage caused by them is to have your property treated by our rodent control services and experienced exterminator.
