Rat Control: Starting at $400

Why Rats Cost More:

• Larger animals require different trap types
• More cautious behavior means longer elimination timeline
• Require larger bait stations
• Cause more structural damage requiring documentation
• Norway rats (common in Calgary) dig burrows requiring exterior treatment

Timeline: 2-4 weeks for full elimination

Calgary Note: True rat infestations are less common than mice but increasing near NE Calgary industrial areas and the Bow River corridor.

Rodent Control + Exclusion Package: Starting at $500

This Is the Best Value Option

Exclusion (sealing entry points) is the ONLY way to prevent re-infestation permanently.

What's Included:

• All inspection and trapping from basic package
• Professional sealing of identified entry points
• Steel wool + expanding foam or copper mesh
• Caulking and concrete as needed

Why Exclusion Is Worth Every Dollar: Without exclusion, mice return every fall. With exclusion done right, you may never have the problem again.

Annual savings: $300-$500/year in prevention vs. repeated treatment.

Monthly Rodent Maintenance Plan: Starting at $50/Month

Best For:

• Properties with ongoing rodent pressure
• Near green spaces, parks, or ravines

What's Included Monthly:

• Activity report
• Any new entry point identification
• Recommendations

No Long-Term Contract Required: Cancel anytime with 30 days notice.

What Makes Calgary Rodent Problems Unique

Why Calgary Has Such High Rodent Pressure in Fall/Winter

Temperature Factor: Calgary's winters (-20°C average January) are deadly for mice outdoors. Every mouse within 50 meters of your home is trying to get in from October through April.

Construction Factor: Calgary's rapid expansion disturbs established rodent populations. New communities like Evanston, Livingston, and Cityscape displace thousands of mice per development.

River Valley: The Bow River and Fish Creek Park create corridors of wild rodent populations adjacent to residential areas.

Chinook Effect: Temperature swings confuse rodent behavior and trigger migration events into structures.

Highest-Risk Calgary Neighborhoods

For Mouse Calls:

• NE Calgary (Taradale, Martindale, Saddle Ridge) - density
• Properties near the Bow River
• Homes adjacent to new construction
• Properties near the city's edge (Tuscany, Sage Hill, Cranston)

For Rat Calls:

• Areas near rivers and ravines
• Industrial areas in SE Calgary
• Older NE and SE neighborhoods

DIY Mouse Control vs. Professional: Cost Comparison

| Method | Cost | Success Rate | Time | |---|---|---|---| | Hardware store snap traps | $15-$30 | 40-60% (if entry points not sealed) | Months | | Consumer bait blocks | $20-$50 | 30-50% | Months | | Professional trapping | $300-$500 | 90-95% | 2-3 weeks | | Professional + exclusion | $500-$800 | 99%+ | 2-3 weeks + permanent |

The Real DIY Cost:

Most people who call us have already spent $50-$150 on DIY products over 2-4 months before calling. They've also lost food to contamination, had damaged wiring, and suffered months of stress.

Total DIY attempt cost: $200-$500 + 2-4 months of suffering

Professional cost: $300-$500, problem solved in 2-3 weeks

Red Flags in Rodent Control Quotes

Don't Fall for These Traps

"Guaranteed forever for $100" No legitimate exterminator can guarantee permanent rodent exclusion without proper sealing. This quote will lead to repeated visits with ongoing charges.

"Poison only" Poisoned rodents die in walls, causing months of smell and fly problems. We use traps first and bait only where strategically appropriate.

No inspection before quoting A legitimate quote requires inspection. Phone-only quotes without seeing the property should be taken as estimates only.

No follow-up included Rodent control requires follow-up to collect eliminated mice, reset traps, and verify success.
