Hearing scratching in the walls or attic? Finding mouse droppings in your kitchen, garage, or crawlspace?

Rodent control is included in Kumo’s Silver and Gold pest control plans, making it easier to maintain protection throughout the year.
Rodent Problems Are Common in North Carolina Homes
Homes in Clayton and surrounding Wake and Johnston County communities can provide easy shelter for mice and rats. Attics, crawlspaces, garages, and sheds offer protected spaces where rodents can nest, particularly during colder or rainy weather.
Mice and rats can enter through small openings around foundations, utility lines, vents, doors, and rooflines. Once inside, they may go unnoticed until homeowners begin finding droppings, hearing scratching noises, or discovering damaged belongings.
Signs You May Have Mice or Rats
Most people first notice rodents because of scratching sounds, droppings, or damaged food packaging.
Other common signs include:
Scratching inside walls or attic spaces
Droppings in cabinets, garages, or crawlspaces
Chewed wiring, wood, or storage boxes
Musty odors in enclosed areas
Damaged attic insulation
Pets suddenly fixate on certain walls or rooms
Why Rodent Infestations Should Be Taken Seriously
Mice and rats can cause problems beyond the noise they make inside walls or attics.
Rodents may contaminate food and household surfaces with urine and droppings. They can also damage insulation, stored belongings, and electrical wiring.
Some rodents can carry disease-causing organisms, making proper handling of droppings and contaminated materials important.
Because mice and rats reproduce quickly, addressing activity early can help prevent a larger infestation and more extensive property damage.

Ongoing Rodent Monitoring
Rodent activity changes constantly throughout the year in North Carolina, especially during colder weather, heavy rain, and seasonal temperature swings when rodents start searching for dry shelter indoors. Ongoing monitoring helps catch activity early before a small problem becomes a much larger infestation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Rodent Control
Are mice dangerous inside a home?
Yes. Mice and rats can contaminate surfaces and food storage areas with urine and droppings while also damaging insulation, wiring, and stored belongings throughout the home.
What attracts mice into homes?
Food, warmth, moisture, pet food, cluttered storage areas, crawlspaces, and easy entry points around the exterior all attract rodents.
Do mice stay active during winter?
Absolutely. In fact, many rodent problems become more noticeable during colder months because mice and rats start moving indoors looking for warmth and shelter.
Does Kumo Pest use traps for rodents?
Yes. Our technicians may use indoor snap traps along with bait placement in crawlspaces and attics, depending on the level of rodent activity and the layout of the home.
Is rodent control included with regular pest control service?
Yes. Rodent control is included with Kumo Pest’s Silver and Gold pest control plans.
How fast do mice reproduce?
Very quickly. A small rodent infestation can quickly escalate into a much larger one, which is why early treatment matters.
