Attic Star pros discovered rat evidence in our attic, which we had suspected. They came in and in one day removed all the old insulation, sprayed nontoxic spray, installed new installation, covered the crawl space under the house and secured the entry points. They were careful to seal up inside spaces n lay down paper where they walked, etc, too. Thanks to everyone involved; grateful to all immigrants who do this hard work!

Reliable rodent proofing to prevent future infestations
Rodents can enter through even the smallest gaps, leading to property damage, contaminated insulation, and serious health risks. At Attic Star, we offer professional rodent proofing services to block all potential entry points and ensure your home remains secure and pest-free.
Our trained technicians perform a detailed inspection, seal vulnerabilities, and reinforce critical areas using durable materials. The result is a clean, protected environment without the need for ongoing pest control.
Signs of rodent infestation
Our professionals have seen it all, and are fully prepared for any attic cleanup situation.
Our highly trained pest control technicians will inspect your home thoroughly, looking for potential entry areas for pests, as well as signs that you may already have some level of infestation.
Droppings
Even if you don’t see rodents, you might know they are in the attic because of what they leave behind. Before cleaning up this mess, you will want to completely clear the infestation and seal off the space.
Chewed wires and damaged structures
Mice and rats are proficient chewers, and they tend to go after insulation, electrical wires, and wood. You might also note damage on your home’s exterior where larger rodents have chewed their way in.
Strange noises
If your attic is simply a storage space where you don’t spend much time, you might identify rodents by the noises they make. Scratching, scraping, and thumping noises in the attic are likely sound effects of a rodent infestation.
Why invest in rodent proofing?
Comprehensive exclusion approach
We seal all accessible entry points in attics, crawl spaces, vents, and foundations to prevent rodents from re-entering your home.
Preserved insulation and air quality
By preventing contamination from droppings and nesting, rodent proofing helps maintain clean insulation and healthier indoor air.
Health and safety protection
Rodents carry bacteria, allergens, and parasites. Effective proofing minimizes health risks for your family by stopping infestations before they start.
Long-term peace of mind
Our rodent proofing service is a preventative investment that reduces the need for future pest control, saving you time, stress, and repair costs.
FAQs
How do rodents typically enter a home?
Rodents can squeeze through gaps as small as 1/4 inch. Common entry points include rooflines, vents, foundation cracks, and utility openings.
Do you use chemicals or traps during rodent proofing?
No. Rodent proofing focuses on physical exclusion — sealing all access points. It’s a humane, non-toxic method that prevents rodents from getting in.
Is rodent proofing a one-time service?
Yes, in most cases. Once your home is fully sealed, you won’t need repeated treatments. We recommend occasional inspections to ensure everything stays secure.

Efficiency and cleanliness were achieved during air duct replacement.Posted on Google Ollie NicholsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had no idea why our winter utility expenditures were going up year after year. It came to light that the majority of the attic insulation had settled, and that certain spots had been contaminated by rodents in the past. It was unexpected how much of an impact the replacement had. Now you can forget about fiddling with the thermostat; the temperatures remain steady.Posted on Google Melissa MastersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Basement had this weird cold, damp feeling year-round that never really went away. Mold remediation uncovered moisture trapped behind insulation panels near the wall framing. Everything affected was removed properly and replaced after drying equipment ran for several days. The space finally feels normal instead of clammy.Posted on Google Janice BoissonneaultTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Even with the help of candles, the musty smell in the basement persisted. There was growth under storage shelves that we never moved, therefore it was the appropriate call to get rid of the mold. Without resorting to jargon typical of contractors, Evelin kept us apprised of developments. The musty aroma of the cellar has finally dissipated.Posted on Google Tiffany WebbTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I expected a few shocks when I bought an older house, but I didn't expect this many. Major maintenance was required in the attic due to polluted insulation and decaying ducting. To ensure that we tackled everything in the correct sequence, Tom provided explicit instructions regarding the priorities. Now the house has a whole new vibe about it.

Attic Star did a fantastic job on our attic. Attention to detail, professional, personable, and a clean job, great company. They get all the debris out, clean, close up openings and install insulation. They did not leave any debris in or out of our house. They also take pictures so you can see the results. Highly recommend.
