Rodent Control and Rodent Proofing in a Haworth Kitchen
Jackie is one of our clients on our Protection Plan. We began working with Jackie earlier this year. At the time, our inspection found mice droppings behind her kitchen stove at her home in Haworth.
How Mice Come Inside
We found several gaps behind the stove that the mice were using to get inside the house. So we sealed those up to make sure that mice are not able to enter the kitchen anymore.
Our inspection found droppings in the boiler room as well. We still set up our rodent control program in her attic and basement.
There were no droppings in those areas at the time, but we wanted to make sure the mice wouldn’t move there as we started the elimination process in the rest of the house.
Where Mice Nest Inside a House
Attics and basements are usually the first places that become infested when mice enter a home.
They are usually dark and quiet. That makes mice feel safe and thus they nest there. From there they explore the house looking for things to nibble on.
We also inspected the outside of the house for more entry points. That’s when we found the gap pictured above and we sealed it up.
We followed up two weeks after our initial service to check everything. On our follow-up we removed a couple dead mice, but didn’t find any signs of further activity.
Long-Term Protection from Mice
With the Protection Plan we are now seeing Jackie in Haworth every three months to proactively make sure that mice and insects are not able to enter the house.
The way we accomplish this is by making sure our rodent control is always active. We also do a barrier treatment around the perimeter of her house. This includes treating around insect entry points such as windows, doors and any pipes leading into the home.
Our Happy Clients
Take a look at just some of the feedback we received from our clients.
Kory Martinez
“Last night I filled out the online form and received a call from John the next morning. I explained how we just bought this house and after it rains we have caught two mice in our own traps. I was losing sleep as I have never lived in a space that had pests. He reassured me that their services include inspection of inside and outside the house. Then Dave came and I couldn’t have been happier with my first experience with an exterminator. He was so nice, knowledgeable and answered all of my questions. This is very important to me because I was literally freaking out and my anxiety was through the roof. After the visit my nerves have been subdued and all thanks to Kapture. I learned a lot and feel like I can sleep better in my new home tonight.”
Nicole Kuhrt
“Kapture is a professional, quality business! The owner handled my service call professionally and with great care, explaining things in detail. The service technician was on time, friendly and extremely professional. He also explained everything in detail prior to performing any services and checked after to make sure everything was well taken care of. The owner called me a few days and then 2 weeks later to follow-up and ensure we were happy with his services. We are extremely satisfied and would highly recommend Kapture to everyone.”
Bachir Gerges
“I sent an email to Kapture and they called me right away. They scheduled a service appointment based on my need. The technician arrived as plan, sprayed the area of need and even sent me a report. This was also followed up by a call from John to ensure everything was done right. Great work all around”
Jasmine Jack
“The staff made sure the entire experience, from start to finish, was smooth and easy. Truly a pleasure to work with and would recommend to everyone.”
Marissa Criaris
“We discovered crave crickets in our basement, which look like jumping spiders. I reached out to Kapture and they answered the phone right away and gave me an appointment immediately. They came in and handled everything, and followed up multiple times to make sure we were happy and that the problem was fixed before the holidays. The process was effortless”
Donna Penna
“I had a fly infestation in my garden, I never saw anything like it. I have lived here for 25 years and never had this problem it was so weird! We tried everything and nothing worked! I am so glad I called Kapture! In 2 hours all of the flies were gone! Highly recommend this company! So happy with the service and the results!”
