Rodent Control in Nassau County

Nassau County's aging housing stock, extensive sewer system, proximity to New York City, and dense suburban development corridors make rodent pressure a year-round reality for Long Island homeowners. Both Norway rats and house mice are common throughout Nassau County, with rat populations concentrated along older neighborhoods in Hempstead, Freeport, and Valley Stream, and mice found throughout the county's suburban homes. Latin American Exterminating provides comprehensive rodent control for Nassau County homes and businesses, combining exclusion, trapping, and baiting to achieve lasting results.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do rats get into Nassau County homes?

Rats can enter through gaps as small as 1/2 inch. Common entry points include gaps around pipes, damaged foundation sills, unsealed dryer vents, and gaps under garage doors. Nassau County's older housing stock often has multiple vulnerability points.

Is rodent baiting appropriate around pets and children?

We use tamper-resistant bait stations that are inaccessible to pets and children when properly installed. We provide complete placement details and placement guidance with every service.

How long does rodent control take?

Most Nassau County rodent infestations are resolved within 2-4 service visits over 3-6 weeks, depending on the severity of the infestation and success of exclusion work.

Will you seal the entry points?

Yes. Effective rodent control requires sealing entry points. We identify and seal all accessible entry points using professional-grade exclusion materials as part of our comprehensive rodent program.
