Scratching in the attic at night is almost always roof rats working the roofline, while ground-level droppings near the pantry usually mean house mice — our technicians identify the species before setting a single trap.
We trace gnaw marks, grease trails, and droppings back to the actual entry gap before quoting trapping and exclusion work.


Our Rodent Control crew is trained specifically on rat and mouse biology, not general pest spraying.
Rodent calls in Trenton get prioritized scheduling since a small mouse problem can become a breeding population within weeks.
Pricing is quoted after inspection and covers both removal and the exclusion work needed to keep rodents from returning.
We use snap traps, tamper-resistant bait stations, hardware cloth, and steel wool for permanent gap sealing.
Roof rats travel roofline, eaves, and attic spaces, so trapping is placed along their actual travel paths, not just on the attic floor.
Norway rats burrow at the foundation and under sheds, so exterior bait stations and burrow treatment are part of the plan.
House mice need only a quarter-inch gap, so mouse jobs focus heavily on sealing utility penetrations and door corners.
Trapping without sealing just invites the next rodent in — we close every identified gap with steel wool, hardware cloth, and sealant.
Trenton warehouses and retail stores get scheduled bait station monitoring with service logs ready for any audit.
After removal, we can address contaminated insulation and droppings left behind in the attic.

Tell dispatch where the activity is: roofline, attic, or ground level, so the right technician and gear get assigned.
A technician arrives with snap traps, bait stations, and sealing materials already loaded for Trenton rodent calls.
Inspection covers attic, foundation, and utility penetrations, with species ID driving trap placement.
Traps and stations go out the same visit, gaps get sealed, and a follow-up confirms activity has stopped for good.
Scratching in the attic at 2am for a week straight — the technician found a roofline gap the size of a golf ball and sealed it same visit.
As a property manager, having documented service reports for every unit made compliance so much easier.
We'd tried every trap from the hardware store with no luck. The tech explained these were roof rats, not mice, and that changed everything about where traps went.

Nex Pest Control dispatches rodent-specialized technicians throughout Trenton and nearby communities, with trapping and exclusion gear stocked on every vehicle.

Mouse droppings are small and rod-shaped; rat droppings are noticeably larger, and the entry gap size differs too — mice fit through a quarter-inch, rats need closer to a half-dollar.
Trapping removes the current rodents, but sealing the gap is what prevents the next one from moving in — both steps matter.
We use tamper-resistant, locked bait stations and can place snap traps specifically out of pet reach on request.
Initial trapping shows results within days, with full clearance usually confirmed by the second visit.
We can document damage for your records and offer attic sanitation as an add-on service after removal is confirmed.
Yes, commercial accounts get scheduled exterior station checks with service logs for health and safety audits.
