Why Rodent Pressure Rises During a New England Winter
Cold weather drives mice and rats indoors as they search for warmth and food. October through March is the highest-risk period for indoor rodent pressure, although signs of activity can appear at any time.
Rodent incisors grow continuously, so mice and rats need to chew frequently. That activity can damage plumbing, siding, insulation, and electrical wiring. Chewing on live electrical wiring has also been linked to house fires.
Diseases Associated with Rodents
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lists several diseases that rodents can spread directly to people. These include:
- Leptospirosis
- Rat-bite fever
- Salmonellosis
- Sylvatic typhus
- Tularemia
- Hantavirus
Hantavirus is a viral disease associated with exposure to rodent urine, droppings, or saliva. Transmission through a rodent bite or scratch is considered rare.
Our Braintree Rodent Control Process
We base each service on the conditions found at your property, from the initial inspection through later checks on rodent activity.
Detailed Property Inspection
We begin by checking for nesting sites, droppings, entry routes, and food sources. These findings show us where rodents are active and which conditions the treatment plan needs to address.
Baiting, Trapping & Exclusion
Treatment can include baiting, trapping, and sealing measures tailored to the property. Rodent exclusion, also called proofing, addresses identified openings with durable materials. The selected methods depend on the activity and entry routes found during the inspection.
Prevention Advice
We explain practical steps related to food storage and property maintenance. This guidance can help you address conditions that may continue supporting rodent activity after the initial service.
Post-Treatment Checks
Later visits allow us to assess activity after treatment. We use those observations to determine whether rodents remain active or existing control measures need further attention.
Rodent Service Costs, Visits & Coverage
The scope of mouse control depends on what we find during the consultation and inspection. We explain the recommended plan before you decide whether to move forward.
Important service details include:
- Pricing factors: Cost depends on the size of the infestation, the number of entry openings, and the type of property.
- Free consultation: We assess the situation before recommending a plan, and there’s no obligation to commit.
- Visit expectations: Visit timing depends on the severity of the infestation. Later checks are used to evaluate remaining activity.
- Household considerations: We use bio-friendly, EPA-registered products selected and applied with children and pets in mind.
- Service coverage: Mouse control includes a six-month service warranty. Our No-Nonsense Guarantee covers return visits without an extra charge if pests return after treatment.

"I strongly recommend Combat Pest Control"
This is our third year with them. We first called because of ants in the house. I couldn't stop them. Combat did the job and we are ant-free. Combat responds quickly to an ant in the kitchen and wasps and bees nests. Thank you Combat !
