Rat removal and rodent control in Colma
Most of Colma's land is cemeteries, which means acres of lawn, trees and quiet ground right next to a small residential area and large retail and auto districts. Rats and mice live comfortably on that open land and move toward buildings when they need food or shelter. Homes on the edge of the green space feel it first. In the retail and auto areas, loading docks, dumpsters and storage rooms give rats a steady food supply. As an exterminator that traps instead of poisoning, we remove the rodents that are inside, then seal foundations, vents, garage doors and utility gaps. Sealing is also how you get rid of mice in a small Colma home, where there's nowhere for them to hide once the gaps are closed.

Wildlife removal in Colma
With so much open ground, wildlife isn't far away. Raccoons and skunks travel from the green space into yards at night, moles work through lawns, and squirrels nest in mature trees. Coyotes are seen across the north Peninsula and are sometimes spotted near open land here. Most wildlife calls here come from homes right on the edge of the green space, where animals cross at night.

Neighborhoods and homes we work in
Colma's homes are concentrated in one small residential area, so we know the streets well. We also work with businesses in the retail and auto districts, where rodent problems often start around trash areas and back doors.
For homes, keep trash in bins with tight lids, clear clutter and woodpiles away from walls, and check that crawl-space vents and garage doors close tight. For businesses, the usual fixes are door sweeps, sealed dumpster areas and closing gaps where pipes enter the building. When open land is right across the street, small gaps matter more than usual.
Signs to watch for include droppings along garage walls, gnawed packaging in storage, and burrows along the foundation where the yard meets open ground.
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.

Common questions
Do you work with businesses in Colma?
Yes. Along with homes, we handle rodent problems for retail and auto businesses, starting with a full inspection of the building.
Why does Colma see so much wildlife?
Most of the town is cemetery land with open lawns and trees, which gives raccoons, skunks and rodents a place to live right next to homes and shops.
How do I keep rats out of my Colma home?
Trap the rats inside and seal every way in, especially the foundation, vents and garage. Keep trash sealed and clutter off the walls. Our sealing work is backed by a lifetime warranty.
Can you help a Colma shop or auto business with rats near the loading area?
Yes. We inspect back doors, loading areas, dumpster spots and pipe gaps, trap the rats that are inside, then fit door sweeps and seal the openings so they stop coming back.
Do you remove raccoons and skunks from Colma yards?
Yes. Raccoons and skunks often come in from the open land at night and den under decks or sheds. We remove them humanely and close the spot they used so the next animal can't move in.
Do you use poison in Colma?
No. We trap and seal and never use poison or bait stations, which matters on land next to open green space where pets and other animals roam.
Do you serve businesses on Serramonte Boulevard and El Camino Real?
Yes. Shops, restaurants and auto businesses along Serramonte Boulevard and El Camino Real are a big part of our Colma work. We trap, seal back doors and dock areas, and clean up after rodents.
Where do rats get into older Colma homes?
Most often through crawl-space vents, gaps around pipes, garage door corners and loose roofline screens. We find each opening, trap the rats inside, then seal it.
