Mouse Control in Reno
Protecting Your Home from Winter Invaders
As the temperatures drop in Reno, your home becomes a beacon of warmth for mice seeking shelter from the high desert cold. Unfortunately, these small intruders bring big problems. Hearing scratching noises in your walls at night or finding droppings in your pantry is more than just unsettling; it is a sign that your home’s hygiene and safety are compromised. Mice reproduce rapidly, and what starts as a single visitor can quickly turn into a full-blown infestation that threatens your property and health.
At Natura Pest Control, we know that dealing with rodents requires more than just a few traps; it requires a strategic, professional response. We are dedicated to providing "The Safest" solutions that eliminate the threat without putting your children or pets at risk. Our licensed technicians bring years of local experience to every job, ensuring we address the root of the problem so you can rest easy knowing your home is secure.

Health Risks and Property Damage
Mice are among the most destructive pests to enter a home. Beyond the "ick" factor, they pose genuine dangers to both your physical structure and your family's health. In our region, deer mice are known carriers of Hantavirus, a serious respiratory disease transmitted through contact with droppings, urine, or saliva. Even common house mice contaminate food sources and surfaces with bacteria like Salmonella. If you are seeing droppings in cupboards or along baseboards, the contamination has likely already begun.
Physically, mice are compulsive gnawers. To keep their teeth sharp, they will chew through almost anything, including drywall, insulation, and, most dangerously, electrical wiring. This behavior creates a significant fire hazard inside your walls, where you cannot see it. Additionally, they can damage expensive PEX plumbing lines, leading to water leaks and mold growth.
- Droppings: Small, dark pellets found in drawers, cupboards, or along walls.
- Noises: Scratching or scurrying sounds in ceilings or walls, especially at night.
- Gnaw Marks: Chewed holes in food packaging, baseboards, or door corners.
- Nesting Material: Shredded paper, insulation, or fabric gathered in hidden areas.
A Comprehensive and Safe Strategy
At Natura Pest Control, we take a "Most Thorough" approach to mouse control because we know that missing a single entry point can lead to re-infestation. Our process begins with a meticulous inspection of your property to identify not just where the mice are, but how they are getting in. We look for gaps as small as a dime, checking vents, pipe penetrations, and rooflines.
We prioritize the safety of your household above all else. Instead of relying solely on dangerous poisons that can harm non-target animals, we utilize a strategic combination of trapping and exclusion techniques. Our goal is to remove the current population effectively while sealing up your home to prevent future guests. We use high-quality materials to block entry points, ensuring a long-term solution that keeps your environment healthy.
- Detailed Inspection: We find the hidden entry points that others miss.
- Safe Removal: We use methods that prioritize the safety of your pets and children.
- Exclusion Focus: We help you seal the gaps to keep rodents out for good.
- Ongoing Protection: If mice return between our visits, we re-treat at no extra charge.
The Importance of Professional Service
Trying to handle a mouse problem with DIY methods often leads to frustration and prolonged exposure to health risks. Store-bought snap traps may catch a few unwary mice, but they rarely eliminate the entire colony, especially the nesting females hidden deep within your walls. Furthermore, the misuse of rodenticides by untrained homeowners is a leading cause of accidental poisoning for dogs, cats, and local wildlife.
A professional service approaches the problem holistically. Experts understand rodent behavior—how they move, where they nest, and what drives them indoors. This knowledge allows for precise placement of control measures that maximize effectiveness while minimizing risk. Additionally, professionals have the tools and training to properly identify and seal exclusion points, which is the only way to truly "mouse-proof" a home. Relying on experts protects your family from disease and your home from expensive structural repairs.

FAQs About Mouse Control
Are your mouse treatments safe for my kids and pets?
Yes, our approach to mouse control is built around the safety of your family and pets. Inside your home or business, we use organic treatments and carefully chosen methods that are designed with everyday living spaces in mind. Outside, we rely on organic blended, professional-grade products that are applied in targeted areas instead of blanket coverage. Our technicians explain where they will treat and how to keep children and pets away from any specific spots for a short time if needed. If you have particular concerns or sensitivities, we encourage you to share them before we begin so we can factor them into your treatment plan.
How fast can your team come out if I see mice?
When you report active mouse activity, our team works to respond as quickly as our schedule allows. We offer same-day and emergency appointments in many cases, especially when you are seeing mice during the day or finding fresh droppings in important areas like kitchens or food storage. The exact timing can depend on the day and time you call and how many urgent requests we are already handling. During your first conversation with us, we will give you a clear idea of our soonest available appointment and help you choose a time that fits your schedule. Our goal is to reduce that anxious waiting period and help you feel that a plan is in motion.
What should I do before your mouse control visit?
You usually do not need to do much before we arrive, but a few simple steps can help the visit go smoothly. We often suggest clearing items from under sinks or along baseboards in the rooms where you have seen the most activity, so our technicians can inspect and treat more easily. It can also help to make note of where and when you have heard or seen mice, including any droppings or nests you find. During scheduling, our team will walk you through any specific preparation that may be useful for your type of property. If anything special is needed, we will explain it in plain language so you are never guessing.
Do I need to leave my home or close my business during service?
In most cases, you can stay in your home or keep your business open while we perform mouse control service. We typically work in specific rooms or areas and use treatments and methods that are chosen with occupied spaces in mind. There may be short periods when we ask you, pets, or customers to avoid a particular area while a product dries or settles. Our technicians will let you know ahead of time if any brief adjustments are needed so you can plan around them. We strive to keep disruption as low as possible while still providing thorough service.
Do you offer service in Spanish?
Yes, we have bilingual technicians who can communicate with you in English or Spanish, depending on what you prefer. During inspections and treatments, they can explain our process, answer your questions, and review preparation or follow-up steps in the language that feels most comfortable for you. Clear communication is an important part of how we work, because we want you to feel confident about what is being done in your home or business. When you contact us, you can let our team know that you would like Spanish language support, and we will do our best to match you with the right technician. This way, you receive both effective rodent control and clear, friendly guidance.
