Rodent Control in Dallas
Effective Rodent Management Built for Dallas Residents
While Dallas might be more famously known for fire ants and cockroaches, rodents are quietly one of the biggest pest issues facing the city. From rats creeping through attics in older neighborhoods to mice slipping through garage doors in the suburbs, rodent problems in Dallas are more common than you might think. Once they find a way inside, they don’t waste time causing damage—or putting your health at risk.
At BUGCO® Pest Control, we provide rodent control services in Dallas that actually address the problem at the source. Our licensed team combines trapping, removal, cleanup, and long-term exclusion strategies so you don’t just deal with a rodent problem—you prevent it from coming back.
Some of the rodents we commonly handle in Dallas:
- Roof rats
- Norway rats
- House mice
- Field mice
- Occasional opossum or squirrel intrusions

Why Rodents Are a Growing Problem in Dallas
Rodents love Dallas for the same reasons we do—plenty of shelter, food sources, and warmth. But unlike us, they’re not paying rent. As construction pushes further into green spaces and older buildings experience more wear and tear, rats and mice are finding even more opportunities to move in.
Rodents can squeeze through holes as small as a dime, gnaw through wood, drywall, and even plastic, and quickly breed out of sight. Whether it’s the roof rats common in central Dallas neighborhoods or house mice sneaking into kitchens across North Dallas, these pests are skilled invaders.
Some signs you might have a rodent problem:
- Droppings in cabinets, pantries, or attic corners
- Scratching or scampering noises at night
- Chewed wires, boxes, or insulation
- Greasy smudge marks along baseboards or walls
- Unusual pet behavior (like barking at walls or sniffing vents)
The faster you act, the easier it is to get control—especially before populations multiply or damage worsens.
How We Handle Rodent Infestations in Dallas
Rodent control isn’t just about laying traps and calling it a day. At BUGCO® Pest Control, we use a layered approach built around Integrated Pest Management (IPM) strategies to control, remove, and keep rodents out for good.
Here’s what our process looks like:
- Thorough inspection - We start with a detailed property assessment to locate active rodent areas, nesting sites, access points, and possible attractants.
- Targeted trapping and baiting - We place traps and tamper-resistant bait stations in strategic areas—out of reach of pets and kids—to catch rodents quickly and effectively.
- Sanitation and removal - Rodents leave behind droppings, urine, and nesting debris that can harbor bacteria. We clean out contaminated areas and remove carcasses to prevent further contamination and odor.
- Exclusion work - We seal gaps, reinforce vents, patch entry points, and recommend structural repairs where needed. This is one of the most important steps for long-term rodent prevention.
- Ongoing monitoring (optional) - If you want year-round peace of mind, we offer residential protection plan service options that include monitoring and maintenance—ideal for properties prone to rodent activity.
