Mice & Rat Control Service

Rodents are more prevalent in Washington than many realize. Kirkland, in particular, sees a significant number of rodent control service calls each year, and we handle many of them! Rodents pose serious health risks if not dealt with properly, so we highly recommend seeking professional help for handling rats, mice, or other rodents, as they can carry diseases.
