Rodent Control

Serving Manhattan, KS | Wichita | Kansas City Metro | Topeka

Hearing something skitter above your ceiling or behind a wall after the lights go out? You shouldn’t ignore it. Rats and mice breed fast, and the pathogens they carry can lead to respiratory problems, food poisoning, and hantavirus. Setting traps might clear out the animals you can see, but it won’t fix how they got in. Even a gap the size of a coin can be a doorway for rodents.

Our technicians pair professional removal with rodent exclusion, locating the weak points in your home’s exterior and closing them off to keep rodents from returning. Call us today for a free estimate on rodent control in Manhattan, Kansas City Metro, and surrounding areas, with exclusion included in the same visit.

How to Identify If You Have a Rodent Infestation

If you suspect rodents, check for the following:

Droppings: Dark brown, small, and shaped like grains of rice.
Gnaw Marks: Rodent teeth never stop growing, so they’ll chew on whatever they can find to keep them short. Bite marks are usually found on wood or packaged food.
Nests: Usually built in tucked-away places where they won’t be disturbed.
Scratching or Scurrying: Most noticeable at night, in the walls or attic.
Rub Marks: Oily, glossy smudges along walls and surfaces on well-traveled rodent routes.

How to Prevent Rodent Issues

Six Signs That Reveal a Rodent Problem

How We Handle Rodent Control

Our technicians work with a wide range of advanced tools, including FlexiArmour™, to give you rodent control and prevention that lasts.

Your American Pest Management technician will take you through four steps:

Thorough Inspection: We look for entry points and risk factors around your property and measure how far the rodent problem has spread.
Custom Treatment Plan: We’ll create a strategy custom fit to your property, covering removal, prevention, and nuisance wildlife.
Humane Removal: Advanced trapping tools let us remove rats and mice from inside your home without unnecessary harm.
Exclusion: We protect your home’s exterior by sealing weak spots from the foundation up to the chimney with FlexiArmour™ and other exclusion products.

What Rodent Exclusion Looks Like

There’s no single solution for sealing out rats and mice, because every house has different weak points. These are some of the methods we rely on:

Installing door sweeps on garage and exterior doors
Swapping out the weather seal and base seal on the main garage door
Sealing entry points inside the home and garage
Closing foundation and soffit vents, and using sealant on exterior cracks, crevices, and pipe intrusions
Adding covers to dryer and stove vents, plus a chimney cap
Sealing exterior J-trim at likely rodent entry points
Placing mesh over gable and attic vents from inside the attic
Sealing roof returns and attic entry points from the outside
Examining fascia and frieze boards for holes and potential entry spots
Fitting caps on accessible plumbing pipes
Confirming siding corners are properly sealed

Why Exclusion Beats Trapping Alone

Trapping and removal may solve today’s problem, but rodents will keep coming if the openings stay. Exclusion closes those openings for good, which is why it’s the most effective and budget-friendly rodent control choice for many homeowners.

What does rodent exclusion provide?

Sealed gaps that keep rodents and wildlife out
An eco-friendly alternative to heavy chemical use
Durable materials built for lasting results
Continuous protection from rodent and wildlife issues inside your home
Resilience against harsh weather
Defense against many additional types of pests
