Rat removal and rodent control in South San Francisco
"The Industrial City" spelled out on Sign Hill says a lot about South San Francisco. East of Highway 101, biotech campuses, warehouses and industrial buildings line the bay. To the west are the residential neighborhoods, climbing toward San Bruno Mountain to the north. Industrial and commercial areas with loading docks, dumpsters and storage keep rat populations steady, and rats don't respect the freeway as a boundary. In the neighborhoods, homes that back onto hillsides and open slopes also see roof rats and mice moving in from the brush. We're an exterminator that relies on trapping and sealing rather than bait. For homes, we trap what's inside and seal the garage, vents and roofline. For businesses, we focus on door sweeps, dock seals and pipe penetrations. Closing those gaps is how you get rid of mice and rats for good.

Wildlife removal in South San Francisco
San Bruno Mountain is a large area of open space on the city's north edge, and hillside homes near it see raccoons, skunks and the occasional coyote. Squirrels live wherever there are mature trees, and moles turn up in lawns. Snakes are sometimes found near the open hillsides.

Neighborhoods and homes we work in
On the residential side of town, we work in neighborhoods west of Highway 101, from older streets near downtown to newer homes on the hills below Sign Hill and San Bruno Mountain. East of 101, we work with commercial and industrial buildings.
Homeowners can help by keeping garage doors sealed, storing pet food and birdseed in closed bins, and trimming plants back from the house. If your home backs onto a hillside, keep brush and woodpiles away from the walls. Businesses should keep dumpster lids closed and doors fitted with sweeps, since rats find the smallest gaps at the bottom of doors.
Typical signs are droppings in the garage, chewed wiring, and scratching in the walls after dark.
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.
