Mouse Control in a House Starts at the Way In

Mouse control in house walls, kitchens and attics works best when it deals with how mice get in, as well as the mice already inside. A house mouse can squeeze through a very small gap. Once inside, it can nest in wall voids, behind appliances or in attic insulation. A few store-bought traps may catch one or two mice. The openings stay open, though, and new mice keep finding them.

On Demand Pest Control uses one combined approach for mice in your house. Our inspector checks the inside and outside of the home to find active and likely entry points. On the first service visit, our technician seals those openings and sets traps inside on the same day. Sealing the house pushes the mice still inside toward the traps, so exclusion and trapping start together.

This page covers what the service includes, the signs to look for, how the process works and what our limited exclusion warranty covers. If you hear scratching at night or find droppings in a drawer, start with a free inspection and a written quote.

What Our House Mouse Removal Service Covers

This service handles mice and other rodents that live in your home or are getting into it. It is one part of our broader rodent control service, which pairs sealing entry points with interior trapping and, where appropriate, exterior bait stations. Here, the focus is on mice inside the house and the openings they use. It includes:

  • House mice indoors: activity in kitchens, pantries, cabinets, laundry rooms and garages.
  • Mice living in the walls: activity from mice nesting in wall voids, ceiling spaces and behind built-in appliances.
  • Attic activity: mice or other rodents moving through attic insulation and along rafters.
  • Structural entry points: gaps along the roofline, soffit returns, roof and gable vents, plumbing vent stacks and other openings rodents use to get in.
  • Outside pressure: exterior perimeter bait stations where appropriate, to reduce rodent activity around the outside of the home.
  • Uncertain rodent identification: if you aren’t sure whether you have mice or rats, the inspector looks at droppings, travel routes and entry points to help identify the activity before recommending a plan.

Some things fall outside the service. ODPC does not seal or rodent-proof garage doors, roll-up doors, exterior doors, windows or pet doors. We also don’t do plumbing or roofing repairs. If the inspection finds decayed or damaged wood at an entry point, we close it off short term and tell you, so a qualified contractor can make the repair.

Signs You Have Mice in the House

Mice are active mostly at night, so you’ll usually notice what they leave behind before you see one. Common signs include:

  • Droppings: small, dark pellets in drawers, along baseboards, under sinks or behind the stove.
  • Scratching or scurrying sounds: often in walls or ceilings after dark, when the house is quiet.
  • Chewed packaging: gnawed cereal boxes, pet food bags or paper goods in the pantry or garage.
  • Nesting material: shredded paper, fabric or insulation tucked into hidden corners.
  • Gnaw marks: fresh chewing on wood trim, cabinet edges or wiring insulation.
  • Grease or rub marks: dark smudges along walls and edges where rodents travel the same path.
  • A musty smell: a stale, ammonia-like odor in closed cabinets or small rooms.
  • Pets acting alert: a cat or dog staring or pawing at one spot on a wall or appliance.

Many of these signs look the same for mice and rats. The size of the droppings, the travel routes and the entry points help tell them apart, and our inspector confirms what’s going on before recommending a plan. Household habits can make activity worse. Open pantry goods, pet food left out overnight, crumbs under appliances and cluttered storage give mice food and cover. Moving dry goods and pet food into sealed, hard containers helps the treatment work.

Getting Your Home Ready for the Mouse Inspection

A little preparation makes the inspection faster and more thorough. Clear a path to the attic hatch, the garage walls and the cabinets under your sinks, because the inspector checks these areas for activity.

Make a quick list of where and when you’ve heard or seen activity, such as noise in a bedroom wall at night, droppings in a drawer or chewed bags in the pantry. That timeline helps the inspector focus on the right areas. Also mention any recent roof, solar or HVAC work, since contractor work can open new gaps around the roofline.

How Our Mouse Removal and Exclusion Process Works

Removing mice takes at least two visits. Here’s what each step involves:

  1. Free inspection.

    Our inspector does a thorough interior and exterior inspection to find active and likely entry points: the roofline, soffits, vents, gaps and other openings. You receive a written quote for the work.

  2. Seal and trap on the first visit.

    Our technician seals the entry points with professional, rodent-proof materials matched to each opening, such as soffit returns, gaps, roof and gable vents, and plumbing vent stacks. Traps go inside the home on the same day. With the openings closed, the mice still inside move toward the traps.

  3. Exterior bait stations where appropriate.

    Perimeter bait stations reduce rodent pressure around the outside of the home.

  4. Follow-up visits, 5–7 days apart.

    The technician comes back to check traps and activity.

  5. Optional attic sanitation.

    If the attic has contaminated insulation, we offer attic sanitation as a separately priced add-on. It includes removing contaminated insulation, sanitizing and deodorizing the space, and re-insulating. Rodent droppings and urine can soak into insulation and leave a lasting odor, so some homeowners add it after removal is done.

You have a part in this too. Traps go where mice travel, out of the way. Keep children and pets away from trap locations, and don’t move or handle traps between visits, because a disturbed trap stops working. Give the technician access to the attic, garage and under-sink areas, and tell us promptly if you notice new signs.

How Much Mouse Control in a House Costs

Most homeowners want a clear idea of cost before they book, so we give you a written quote after the free inspection.

Complete rodent control in your area — trapping plus full exclusion to seal the entry points — starts around $1,050 for a typical single-story home.

Your final price depends on the size and layout of your home, how many entry points need sealing, how established the activity is and how much roofline access the work needs. A single-story home with a few gaps is a smaller job than a two-story home with several roofline openings. Optional add-ons such as attic sanitation are quoted separately, and you decide whether to include them. The inspection is free, and you see the scope in writing before any work starts.

What customers say about On Demand

★★★★★

“Logan and Jon were incredibly knowledgeable and polite during their visit to our home. We highly recommend their services. Logan sealed off all areas after having a new tile roof installed to make sure it stays free of any rodents. Jon also came out to secure the roof again to make sure there were no additional sections that needed sealed. Jaime was also very informative as a sales rep!”

— K. Mcguire
★★★★★

“OnDemand sent Raymond as our tech. This was a nasty rodent infestation. In all he was back 5 times, VERY THOROUGH. And Patient with both the job and the concerns of the residents. Result: FULL extermination, and FULL removals! Ray was thorough so we are optimistic we won’t be seeing these rodents again any time soon. He also helped me move some things and block a potential entry point in the bathroom.”

— E. Gillis
★★★★★

“It was easy to get prompt appointments, without delay. Bill came and did the initial inspection. Bill was courteous, thorough, and informative. Lenz secured openings in my home, where rodents could potentially enter, and then he set the traps. Lenz was courteous, thorough, and efficient. Vlad came quickly when there was evidence that one of the traps captured a rodent. Vlad was courteous, prompt, and efficient.”

What Our Mouse Exclusion Warranty Covers

If mice get back in through a covered opening we identified, sealed and recorded on your Exclusion Form, we re-seal that opening at no extra charge. Coverage lasts for the lifetime of the original purchaser at the original treated address. When you tell us about activity, we schedule an inspection at no charge.

Some things are not covered: new openings (including gaps chewed later), plumbing-related entry points, storm damage, pre-existing decay, tampering with sealed areas and work by other contractors, such as a new roof, HVAC or solar. If other contractors do work on your home, you must tell us in writing within ten days, or the warranty is void for the affected areas. The warranty can’t be transferred, doesn’t cover rodent damage and doesn’t promise a rodent-free home. Your warranty terms give the full conditions.

Frequently asked questions

Is killing a mouse in the house enough to solve the problem?

Usually not. One mouse often means others are nesting nearby, and the gap it used is still open. Removal works best when the entry points are sealed and the mice still inside are trapped at the same time.

How long does it take to get rid of mice?

Removal takes at least two visits, 5–7 days apart. Sealing and trapping start on the first visit, and follow-up visits check traps and activity. The total time depends on how established the activity was, so we don't promise elimination by a fixed date.

What happens if a mouse dies inside a wall?

We use traps indoors, placed where mice travel and where the technician can check them. Finding or removing a rodent that dies inside a wall, ceiling or other hard-to-reach space isn't covered under the rodent agreement.

Are the traps safe to have around kids and pets?

Traps go in low-traffic spots where mice travel. Keep children and pets away from those areas, and don't handle or move the traps. A trap that pets or people disturb can also stop working.

Do I need to do anything between visits?

Store dry food and pet food in sealed, hard containers and clean up crumbs under appliances. Leave the traps where the technician set them. Call us if you notice new droppings, noises or chewing.
