Rodent Control & Wildlife Removal in Moss Beach, CA

Rat removal and rodent control in Moss Beach

Moss Beach lies between Montara and El Granada, home to the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve and Seal Cove. Many streets are lined with coastal cypress trees, and those dense, low-branching trees are good cover for roof rats, which travel through them onto rooftops. The coastal fog and dampness wear down vents and wood siding, opening gaps over time. When the weather turns, rats and mice head for the nearest dry attic or crawl space. We're an exterminator that relies on traps rather than poison, which is especially important near the marine reserve. We trap the rodents inside, then seal the house with materials that stand up to salt air. That's how to get rid of mice in a Moss Beach home and keep them out. Homes closest to open land usually need the most attention, especially in fall.

Wildlife removal in Moss Beach

Open land and the cypress groves bring raccoons, skunks and squirrels into Moss Beach yards. Moles are common in gardens, coyotes are seen on the coastside, and snakes sometimes turn up in brush. Skunks and raccoons often den under decks and porches when the coastal weather turns wet, and they return to the same spot year after year unless it's sealed.

Neighborhoods and homes we work in

We work throughout Moss Beach, from homes near Seal Cove and the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve to those closer to Highway 1. We check rooflines under the cypress trees carefully, along with crawl spaces and decks exposed to the damp.

To protect your home, trim cypress branches back from the roof, fix rot and damaged vents before winter, and store pet food and garbage in sealed containers. Keeping brush and woodpiles away from the house removes cover for both rodents and wildlife.

Signs to watch for include droppings in the attic or crawl space, chewed insulation, and running sounds in the ceiling at night, especially in fall and winter. During an inspection, we check both the roofline under the trees and the foundation, then explain what needs sealing.

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.
