Plano Rat Removal & Rodent Control Experts

Hearing scratching in the attic? Noticing droppings in the garage or along walls? Rodents aren't just a nuisance—they're a health risk and a serious threat to your property. At Critter Guardian, we specialize in safe, effective rat removal in Plano, TX using poison-free trapping and exclusion methods designed to solve the problem permanently.

Rat activity can escalate fast. Once they find a food source and a warm nesting area, they multiply quickly and start damaging insulation, ductwork, and wiring. We remove active rats and build a complete exclusion plan so they can’t get back in.

Permanent Solutions — Not Monthly Pest Contracts

Our team locates and seals the overlooked rodent entry points most pest control companies miss. Rats and mice can squeeze through gaps as small as a nickel—we find and block them all using durable, chew-resistant materials. No more endless poison treatments and recurring visits while still hearing activity in the attic.

Rodent Entry Points We Secure in Plano

Rooflines & Eaves

We seal gaps under shingles, eaves, roof returns, and fascia. These high-risk entry points are often overlooked during inspections.

Vents & Utilities

Rodents love A/C lines, wire gaps, and plastic vents. We screen and seal these weak spots to help keep rats and mice out for good.

Foundation & Garage

Weep holes, pipe chases, and garage door gaps are blocked to stop ground-level entry where infestations often start.

All rodent exclusion work is backed by a satisfaction guarantee. If rodents return through our sealed areas, we come back—at no charge—within your warranty period.

Choose Critter Guardian for trusted, long-term rodent prevention in Plano, TX.

Why We Don't Use Poison for Rodent Control in Dallas

Traditional pest control companies often rely on poison in homes and attics to manage rats and mice, but this approach creates even bigger problems. Poison does not fix the root issue of rodents finding entry points into your Dallas home or business.

Why poison isn't the answer

  • Rodents die inside attic, leading to foul odors.
  • Poison can attract secondary pests like flies and maggots.
  • Doesn’t stop new rodents from entering—only exclusion does.

At Critter Guardian, we focus on humane trapping and professional animal exclusion services in North Dallas. No toxins, no mystery smells, just lasting results.

Our 3-Step Rat Removal & Rodent Exclusion Process in Plano, TX

Step 1: Prevention & Rodent Exclusion

Our Plano rodent control experts start with a detailed inspection of your home to locate every current and potential rat or mouse entry point. We then professionally seal and reinforce these vulnerable areas, cutting off access to your home and attic. This critical exclusion step is the foundation of effective rat removal in Plano, TX—preventing repeat infestations before they begin.

Blocking and Sealing

Step 2: Targeted Trapping & Removal

After entry points are addressed, we strategically place professionally baited traps in the highest-activity areas for fast, targeted results—without poison. This method is ideal for Plano homes and attics because it removes active rodents while we prevent new ones from getting inside.

Step 3: Sanitation & Decontamination

Once rats are removed, our team can perform attic sanitation and decontamination. Using professional fogging equipment, we help neutralize bacteria, viruses, pheromone trails, and lingering rodent odors—especially in contaminated attic spaces—so your home feels clean and safe again.

Frequently Asked Questions About Rat Removal in Plano

How do I know if I have a rat problem in my home?

Common signs of a rat infestation include scratching sounds in the attic or walls, droppings, chewed wires, matted insulation trails, and greasy rub marks along frequently used areas. If you notice any of these signs, it’s smart to schedule an inspection promptly.

Do you use poison to get rid of rats?

No, we do not use poison. Critter Guardian uses trapping and exclusion (sealing entry points) to remove rats and help prevent them from returning.

How long does it take to remove rats completely?

Most rat removal cases in the Plano area are resolved within a few weeks, depending on the severity and duration of the infestation.

What health risks do rats pose to my family?

Rats can contaminate insulation and surfaces with droppings and urine, and they may carry parasites. Proper removal, exclusion, and sanitation helps protect your family and pets.

What’s included in your rat removal service in Plano?

Our rat removal service typically includes a detailed inspection, targeted trapping and removal, sealing of entry points (exclusion), and optional attic sanitation to help remove contamination and odor.

Is your rat removal service safe for kids and pets?

Yes—our methods are designed to be family- and pet-safe. We do not use toxic baits or poison during our rat removal process.

Can rats come back after removal?

Rats can return if entry points are left unsealed or if weak materials fail over time. That’s why exclusion (sealing and reinforcing access points) is a core part of our service to support long-term protection.

Do you offer rat prevention services even if there’s no current problem?

Yes—we specialize in prevention. We can inspect your home for vulnerabilities and seal off common access points to help prevent infestations before they start.
