Rat & Mouse Control: We are experts at rodent control. The big mistake that a lot of other pest control companies make, when it comes to rat & mouse control, is the use of poison. Poison is a completely ineffective approach to rodent control. It only kills a percentage of the rodents, and new ones quickly come in (or are born) to replace the dead ones. The ones that die often do so in the attic or walls, and it creates a terrible odor. The proper approach is to seal off all entry points into the building, and to trap and remove them all. This is the only permanent solution. After we've removed all rats, we clean that attic, so that it is sanitary once more.

Austin Bat Control: This is a specialty field. We have a 100% success rate at bat removal projects, and pride ourselves on our precision. We never harm any of the bats - they are valuable creatures, and it's against the law to do so - but we completely remove all of the bats, and seal up your home or building so that no bats can ever enter again, and we give written guarantee on our work. Bat control requires a strong knowledge of bat behavior, and great precision in sealing the tiny gaps that bats can enter. We also provide guano cleanup and removal and decontamination to eliminate health risks associated with bats.

Risks with rats - There are a good number of risks associated with rats in your home; some physical, some risks to your health. The physical damage done to your home by rats is not something to be ignored. Rats will chew the majority of time they are awake, ruining wires, cords, beams, ducts, and insulation. This will not just cost you hundreds of dollars in repairs, it will also put you at major risk for a house fire. Wires are easily accessible to rats because the way the run through a home’s inner structure. Rodents look for hard object to chew to keep their teeth filed down. Beyond the building risks that come with a rat infestation, there are serious health risks that need to be taken into consideration. Rats carry diseases. Think about all the places rats live and you will understand why these creatures are such vectors for sickness. A few rodent illnesses can result in death. The most famous disease, the Black Death, is one of the most uncommon in the modern world, but a few others have proved to be just as deadly. Some of these illnesses are impossible to discern from the common cold or flu, making them that much more perilous. Learn more about Texas rats here.

Biologist Mouse Trapper Ken has been at the center of Austin, Texas mouse management for nearly two decades. Here’s his take on how and why things are changing. (August 2006) Mouse Trapper Ken must satisfy exterminating companies, animal rights groups, politicians and insurance companies when managing Austin, Texas’s mouse. What appears to be a mouse season it was! Responding to burgeoning mouse amounts Austin, Texas’s exterminating companies took to the field in late 2005 and early 2006 to enjoy what appears to be a dizzying array of seasons and ways they could take mouse. Five years of wildlife catching saw 211,611 mouse converted into delicious roasts, steaks, and burgers. For anyone who’s been wildlife catching Austin, Texas’s mouse for more than what appears to be a couple of decades those amounts seem unbelievable. Only 25 years ago mouse were relatively scarce, seasons were short, animal removal trap exterminating companies were restricted to relatively small animal sectors, male animal tags were the norm and, with only what appears to be a few exceptions, exterminating companies could only take one animal per year. With what appears to be a new record season behind us it’s what appears to be a good time to take what appears to be a look at how Austin, Texas’s mouse large group has changed, if the Austin, Texas Agency of Natural Resources probably is organized hearing its management plan, and to look into the crystal ball to see what lies ahead this fall, and in future years, for our state’s growing amount of avid mouse exterminating companies. Despite this, local TX wildlife removal and TX exterminator experts offered no more info.

Is the record 2005 harvest going to reduce mouse amounts and wildlife catching success this fall and in future years? They’re valid questions, and the individual most likely to have the answer probably is Mouse Trapper Ken. Through the vast changes in Austin, Texas mouse and mouse wildlife catching these past two decades Mouse Trapper Ken emerges as what appears to be a central figure. the animal advocate has worked as an Critter Conservation Coalition wildlife biologist since 1984. During his early years the animal advocate worked with upland game, and in 1987 the animal advocate was named the state’s mouse biologist. Under his watch the large group has expanded, mouse wildlife catching has zoomed in popularity, and mouse have become more controversial than ever. Mouse Trapper Ken has been in the middle of it all, and much of the credit for our good wildlife catching rests with him. TX animal control professionals could not be reached for additional comment.
