Rodent Inspection in Pittsburgh: Find the Source Before You Treat
Every Pittsburgh rodent job should start with an inspection. It tells you what animal you have, how it is getting in, how big the problem is and what it will take to fix.
What we check
- Exterior: foundation line, burrows, trash areas, fence lines, vents and doors.
- Interior: basements, kitchens, bathrooms, radiators, pipe chases and areas behind appliances.
- Utility penetrations, gaps and moisture problems rodents use.
- Evidence: droppings, gnaw marks, grease rub marks, nests and tracks.
- Species, so the right method is used for rats or mice.
What you get
- A map of activity and entry points.
- A clear explanation of what was found, in plain language.
- A written scope with treatment, sealing and follow up steps.
Rodent inspection for home buyers, owners and managers
A rodent inspection is also useful before buying or renting out a property, after a neighbor reports activity, and before a health or code inspection. For buildings, it is the first step to resolving a complaint and keeping it resolved.
