Rodent Control and Extermination in Lansing, Byron Center, and Surrounding Areas
Gutter installers found a hornet nest in my home and couldn’t finish the installation. I called a number of large chain pest control companies but Ben explained his process over in detail that I could understand. He and his assistant came that same day. They were thorough and the price was reasonable. I highly recommend Stewart Pest Solutions.
A rodent problem can quickly turn into a major issue for your home or business. Mice and rats chew through wiring, insulation, and structural materials, creating costly damage and even fire hazards. They also contaminate food and leave droppings behind, creating unhealthy conditions for everyone on your property.
Rodents are known to carry harmful bacteria and diseases such as Salmonella and Leptospirosis, putting your family, employees, and customers at risk. Because they reproduce rapidly, even a small problem can grow into a full infestation in a short amount of time.
Common Rodents in Michigan Properties
Deer Mice
Deer mice are small 3-4 inch, gray-brown rodents with white underbellies and large eyes. Common in rural Michigan, they typically live outdoors, but may enter garages or basements during colder months. Deer mice reproduce quickly, with females producing 4-9 pups every 3-4 weeks. They can carry hantavirus through their droppings, and are known to chew wires and store food indoors.
House Mice
House mice are one of the most common indoor pests in Michigan. They can squeeze through very small openings and tend to nest in walls, cabinets, and storage spaces. They reproduce quickly, producing 5-10 litters per year, each litter containing 4-7 young. They are known to contaminate food, making them a serious concern in both homes and businesses.
Norway Rats
Norway rats are large, heavy-bodied rodents, measuring 7-9 inches long and weighing up to a pound. These burrowing rodents are typically found around foundations, garages, and lower levels of buildings. They travel at night (up to 150 feet) in search of food and can cause significant structural damage. Their gnawing habits can also create fire risks, and they are known carriers of disease, making professional control essential.
Voles
Voles are 4-6 inch stocky rodents with short tails, blunt noses, and gray-brown fur. Often referred to as “meadow mice,” they are commonly found in lawns, landscaped areas, and gardens. They create shallow tunnels and feed on grass, roots, and tree bark. While they rarely enter buildings, they can cause extensive property damage outside.
Why Rodent Infestations Grow Fast
Rodents reproduce at a rapid pace, meaning one or two can quickly turn into many. Their ability to hide in walls, crawlspaces, and attics makes them difficult to fully eliminate without professional treatment. Acting early is the best way to prevent widespread damage.
