At Anti-Pesto, we know how frustrating and unsettling a rodent problem can be, so we offer fast, reliable rodent control for Tampa Bay homeowners.

Comprehensive Rodent Elimination

Rodent Exclusion Services

Keeping rodents out of your home isn’t just about getting rid of the ones already inside—it’s about ensuring they can’t get back in. That’s where rodent exclusion comes in. This process involves sealing openings that mice and rats use to sneak indoors. Exclusion is key to long-term protection in Tampa Bay, where homes lush landscaping and warm weather attracts rodents year-round. At Anti-Pesto, we don’t just patch up holes—we use durable materials that rodents can’t chew through.

In addition to our exclusion strategies, we’ll install rodent traps and exterior rodent stations as necessary to eliminate the rodents already infesting your home and provide follow-up services to ensure the problem is completely solved!

"Very impressed with Brandon, Roy, Jacob and Gary. We had 45 different points of entry that needed to be sealed. These men showed up on time and worked for nearly 10 hours straight in the summer heat. When they were done they showed me their work, and we could not be more grateful!"

How our local pest control pros solve rodent infestations

Rodent inspection & quote

When you contact Anti-Pesto for help getting rid of mice or rats, we’ll first inspect the areas where you’ve noticed rodent activity to determine the type of rodent and how serious the problem is. We’ll also locate potential entry points to figure out how rodents are getting in. Once we understand where they’re coming from and how widespread the issue is, we’ll recommend the best treatment plan to eliminate rodents.

Attic restoration & pest control insulation installation

For customers who choose our rodent exclusion and pest control insulation option, once we resolve the infestation, we’ll remove rodent nests and contaminated materials from your attic and deodorize the space to eliminate odors left behind by rodents. Once that step is complete, we’ll re-insulate the attic with special, state-of-the-art pest control insulation that helps prevent common pest infestations, including ants, cockroaches, and silverfish. This insulation not only prevents pests from making their way into your home but also reduces energy costs and creates a quieter, more comfortable interior without interruption from planes overhead, nearby traffic, or noisy neighbors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Rodent Control FAQs

Do you have questions about mice or rats and how to protect your property from these destructive rodents? We’ve compiled answers to some of the most common questions about rodents in Florida and treatment options.

How do I know if I have a rodent infestation?

You might need rodent control if you spot any of these signs: 

  • Scratching, squeaking, or other sounds that increase at dusk
  • Droppings near food, in drawers, under sinks, or areas where rodents might travel
  • Gnaw marks on walls, furniture, electrical wiring, and personal belongings
  • A bad smell coming from hidden spots where rodents could be hanging out

Are rodents in Tampa Bay dangerous?

Yes, mice and rats in the Tampa Bay area can pose several risks to property owners. They spread salmonella, leptospirosis, and other illnesses through droppings, urine, saliva, and bites. The allergens they leave behind can also trigger allergies and asthma. In addition to the health risks, rodents tend to gnaw on everything, from furniture to electrical wires, potentially causing damage or even creating fire hazards.

What does it mean if I only see one rodent in my home?

Seeing just one rodent doesn’t always mean you're dealing with a small problem. Rodents are nocturnal and very good at hiding, so it's possible there are more lurking out of sight. One mouse or rat could indicate an infestation still in the early stages. It's a good idea to inspect your home for signs of others, like droppings or gnaw marks, and call a professional for a thorough inspection to help prevent a bigger problem.

We had a wasp infestation in our backyard shed. Anti-Pesto responded immediately and were out to our place within about two hours and took care of everything thoroughly. They will even follow-up again within two weeks to be sure that the problem does not recur. They are awesome!

Amazing quality work. I’ve had a few pest control companies spray and ants would still enter our home and act as roommates. Sam Hurtado is our technician and he answers everything with knowledge and always brings quality work. Even if there was recent pest work they always arrange if I have issues. Thank you!!
