Our Rat, Mice, Rodent Control Process
Cascade’s rodent control process:
Getting Started – Initial Rodent Service
This includes an assessment of your home structure and property, including whatever signs you are aware of. Whether your home or business, Cascade has you covered. Examining the property first allows us to get a better idea of your structure’s vulnerabilities or if there are any further existing infestations you were unaware of.
Next comes trap setting and installation of bait stations. We pride ourselves on our eco-friendly and environmental safe treatment methods. Cascade technicians highly regard both the safety of you and your family as well as that of the environment.
Importantly we also estimate the need for any needed Rodent Exclusion. This is where gaps and holes are readily allowing rats or mice to enter the structure. If we do find any weak spots in your home’s defenses or any existing infestations, we want to help you fix and prevent against those occurrences in the future. Our estimation will give you an idea of the scope and cost of making your home as safe and clean as possible. Sometimes inaccessible and hard to find gaps become more obvious over time during one of our periodic services.
Continuous Protection to Defend Against the Ongoing Presence of Rats and/or Mice
Depending on where you live rats or mice will are established in your surroundings. Your “neighborhood” harbors rats and/or mice.
- In urban/suburban locales Rats are now an endemic, invasive species
- In more remote suburban/rural areas deer mice are a well-established indigenous species
Persistent and ongoing rodent and pest control services are essential in protecting you and your home from a re-infestation. Cascade’s technicians are dedicated to providing the best care and protection possible, so you will get visits from us every two months*. Any visits in between these bi-monthly treatments are included free of charge.
*Also, Monthly service can called for and Quarterly service might be appropriate but carries a different warranty.
At these bi-monthly visits, our technicians will inspect and monitor the exterior perimeter and structure of your home or business. We will also check any outdoor crawlspace access while we’re at it.
Where we’ve set any bait stations or traps, we will check, clean, and re-set any on record. We will also make sure that if any others need to be set or repairs need to be made, those issues are taken care of.
Inside your space, we can check attics (annually unless an active infestation) as well as any interior crawlspaces or substructures to make sure they are well maintained and rodent, pest, and any filth / damage that comes along with them is removed and prevented against.
Just like persistent, ongoing maintenance is necessary to keep your home infestation-free, it is also important that you keep an eye out for any damage and debris that is out of the ordinary so you can call us to take care of it as soon as possible. Our warranty** covers any extra visits that are required to properly abate rodents and pests. [**Conditions apply. See your Cascade technician for details.]
