Mice and rats in Murfreesboro homes
Murfreesboro's fast-growing subdivisions sit next to farmland and creeks, which pushes wildlife and pests toward new homes. Mice and rats move indoors looking for food, water and warm places to nest, especially as nights get colder. They breed fast, so a few droppings in a cabinet can turn into a real infestation within weeks. A rodent control provider can find how they're getting in, remove them and seal the gaps.
Signs of mice and rats
- Droppings in cabinets, drawers, along walls or in the attic
- Scratching or scurrying in walls or ceilings at night
- Gnaw marks on food packages, wood or wiring
- Greasy rub marks along walls and baseboards
- Nests made of shredded paper, fabric or insulation
Call a Murfreesboro pro if:

Why it's worth getting help
