Rodent Control & Wildlife Removal in Burlingame, CA

Rat removal and rodent control in Burlingame

Many Burlingame homes date from the early 1900s, especially in neighborhoods like Easton Addition and Burlingame Park. Older construction means more gaps: loose eaves, original vents, and openings around chimneys and pipes. The city's historic eucalyptus trees and mature landscaping act like highways for roof rats, which run along branches and drop straight onto the roof. Around the Burlingame Avenue and Broadway shopping districts, rats live near restaurants and shops and move into nearby homes. As an exterminator that traps rather than poisons, we remove the rodents inside and seal the roofline, attic and crawl space. That's how you get rid of mice and rats in an older Burlingame home for good. Signs to watch for in older Burlingame homes include droppings in the attic, chewed insulation and running sounds in the ceiling after dark.

Wildlife removal in Burlingame

Up in the Burlingame Hills and in yards with big trees, wildlife moves close to homes. Raccoons climb onto roofs and into attics, squirrels nest in eaves and attics, and skunks dig under decks and porches. Bats sometimes roost in older attics and chimneys. Moles are common in well-kept lawns, and coyotes and snakes are more likely near the hills.

Neighborhoods and homes we work in

We work in Easton Addition, Burlingame Park, the Burlingame Hills and the neighborhoods around Burlingame Avenue and Broadway. In the older neighborhoods, we spend time on rooflines under the eucalyptus and inside original attics. Near the shopping districts, we focus on garages, foundations and shared fences. In the Burlingame Hills, we also look at decks and crawl spaces next to wooded slopes.

In Burlingame, prevention starts above your head. Keep tree limbs trimmed back from the roof, cut ivy away from walls and fences near the house, and make sure attic and roof vents have intact screens. Fallen fruit and birdseed draw rats from the neighbors. In older homes, gaps around chimneys and old pipe runs are worth checking before winter. If you hear running or scratching in the ceiling at night, that's usually roof rats, and the earlier they're sealed out, the less cleanup there is.

Had a free county rodent inspection? We do the sealing.

The San Mateo County Mosquito and Vector Control District offers free rodent inspections to county residents, but it doesn't do trapping or exclusion work on homes. If they've shown you where rodents are getting in, we trap what's inside and seal every gap they found, backed by our lifetime warranty.
