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.


Every technician handling Shively rodent calls carries state licensing and full liability coverage for both trapping and exclusion work.
Rodent calls in Shively 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.
Our vehicles carry door sweeps, vent screening, and expanding sealant specifically for rodent exclusion work.
Roof rats travel roofline, eaves, and attic spaces, so trapping is placed along their actual travel paths, not just on the attic floor.
We inspect crawl spaces and foundation perimeters specifically for Norway rat burrow entrances.
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.
Commercial rodent accounts get recurring exterior station checks documented for compliance records.
Rodent nesting material and waste get cleared as part of a full-service attic remediation add-on.

Tell dispatch where the activity is: roofline, attic, or ground level, so the right technician and gear get assigned.
Our mobile units stock hardware cloth and steel wool on every rodent-flagged dispatch.
We identify the species, trace the entry gap, and quote a flat price covering both trapping and permanent sealing.
Guarantee coverage means a return visit is free if activity continues past the stated window.
Mice were getting into the pantry no matter how much steel wool I stuffed in myself. Turns out the real gap was behind the dryer vent.
Our warehouse had rodent activity near the loading dock and Nex Pest Control set up a monitored station program with logs for our next audit.
Knowing the difference between a Norway rat burrow and a roof rat travel path was something we never would have figured out ourselves.

Nex Pest Control dispatches rodent-specialized technicians throughout Shively 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.
Yes, exclusion is the permanent fix; trapping alone without sealing usually means new activity within a few weeks.
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.
We set up recurring monitoring visits for warehouses, restaurants, and retail spaces on a schedule that fits your operation.
