Rodent Control & Wildlife Removal in Loma Mar, CA

Rat removal and rodent control in Loma Mar

Loma Mar is a tiny community in the Santa Cruz Mountains, along Pescadero Creek near San Mateo County Memorial Park. It's mostly cabins and homes in redwood forest. Damp, shaded conditions are hard on wood, and older cabins develop gaps around foundations, decks and roofs. Rats and mice, including wood rats, find their way into crawl spaces, attics and sheds, especially in the wet months. We're an exterminator that relies on trapping and sealing instead of poison, which is safer next to the creek and the park. Once rodents are removed, we seal the cabin. That's how to get rid of mice in a Loma Mar home for good. Sheds and woodpiles beside the cabin are usually where rodents settle first, before moving in.

Wildlife removal in Loma Mar

With Memorial Park and the redwood forest all around, raccoons, skunks and squirrels are frequent visitors. Bats sometimes roost in cabins and outbuildings, coyotes are common, and snakes can turn up in sunny spots. Raccoons and squirrels can get into cabin attics through gaps in old wood, and skunks often den beneath decks and porches. Once they're removed, we close those openings.

Neighborhoods and homes we work in

We work on cabins and homes throughout Loma Mar, including those along Pescadero Creek. We check crawl spaces, decks, siding and rooflines carefully, since forest moisture opens gaps over time.

For cabins used part-time, a check before winter is a good idea. Don't leave food inside when you're away, keep woodpiles off the ground and away from walls, and clear brush from around the cabin.

Signs to watch for include droppings in cabinets or the crawl space, chewed insulation, nests in sheds or under decks, and scratching in the walls at night. During an inspection, we check the cabin from top to bottom and look at sheds and outbuildings too. Forest moisture means wood softens and gaps open in several places, so we seal each one rather than just the most obvious. We explain what we found and what needs to be done before any work starts, and our sealing work carries a lifetime warranty.

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.
