Rat removal and rodent control in Hillsborough
Hillsborough is a residential-only town with no commercial district, made up of large lots, estates and wooded hillsides. Big properties bring more places for rodents to get in: several rooflines, guest houses, pool houses, garages and long runs of crawl space. Roof rats travel through the tree cover onto roofs, and mice slip into outbuildings and storage areas. A proper inspection here covers every building on the property, not just the main house. We're a no-poison exterminator: we trap what's inside, then seal each building. It's the reliable way to get rid of mice and rats on a large property. Common signs are droppings in a pool house or garage, chewed irrigation lines, gnawed stored items and scratching in the ceiling at night. Because properties are spread out, a problem in one building can go unnoticed for weeks.

Wildlife removal in Hillsborough
Wildlife such as raccoons, deer and coyotes is common near Hillsborough homes. Raccoons climb into attics and den under decks, squirrels nest in eaves, and skunks dig under porches and outbuildings. Moles can tear up large lawns and gardens. Bats sometimes roost in attics and outbuildings, and snakes turn up in wooded and brushy areas. We don't handle deer, but we can seal the spots other animals use to get under or into buildings.

Neighborhoods and homes we work in
We work across Hillsborough, from the estates on the wooded hillsides to the large lots on flatter streets. Because each property is big, we plan each inspection around the whole site: main house, outbuildings, crawl spaces and every roofline.
On large Hillsborough properties, small habits make a difference. Keep outbuilding doors closed, store pet food and birdseed in sealed bins, and trim branches back from every roofline, not just the main house. Woodpiles and stored items against walls give rats cover. Pool equipment areas and garden sheds are worth a look too. Because there are so many buildings, a once-a-year inspection is a good way to catch new gaps before animals find them, especially after storms or construction.
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 inspect outbuildings and guest houses in Hillsborough?
Yes. On large Hillsborough properties we inspect the main house, outbuildings, crawl spaces and every roofline, because rodents and wildlife can use any of them.
What rodents are most common in Hillsborough?
Roof rats are the most common, thanks to the heavy tree cover. Mice also get into garages, storage areas and outbuildings.
How do I get rid of rats in Hillsborough for good?
Trap the rats inside, then seal every building on the property, including outbuildings. Our sealing work is backed by a lifetime warranty.
