Professional Rodent Control in Loxahatchee, FL
Rodent problems have a way of coming back, even after you think you have handled them. The real issue is not always the rodents you can see — it is the entry points they keep using to get back in. Without sealing those gaps, trapping and baiting only go so far. A professional inspection takes the guesswork out of it, mapping out exactly where rodents are getting in and what is drawing them to the property in the first place.
Hulett Environmental Services builds its rodent control around exclusion, not just removal. That means sealing the entry points that let rodents in, combining trapping and baiting where needed, and scheduling follow-up visits based on actual activity, not a fixed calendar. During active infestations, that can mean up to five visits per month, staying with it until the problem is resolved. Seasonal pressure from rodents shifts throughout the year, and a recurring service keeps protection in place so small activity does not grow into a bigger issue down the road.

Protecting the Home You Have Worked Decades to Build
When rats or mice find a way in, the damage to your property can add up fast. Rodent Control from Hulett Environmental Services goes beyond trapping and baiting to seal the entry points that let rodents in to begin with, giving your home real, lasting protection rather than a temporary fix.
Here is how every visit works:
- Your technician sends an "on my way" text before arriving
- Knocks on the door to check in with you
- Inspects your property for activity and entry points
- Performs treatment using trapping, baiting, or exclusion as the situation requires
- Checks back in with you when the service is complete
- Emails you a full service report
Visits are scheduled based on what your property actually needs, not a calendar. During an active infestation, Hulett can come back up to five times a month until the problem is resolved.

How to Tell If Rats or Mice Have Moved Into Your Home
Rodents are good at staying out of sight, but they are not good at staying quiet. If rats or mice have settled into your home, they almost always leave evidence behind. Knowing what to look for can mean catching the problem early, before it has a chance to spread through your walls, attic, or garage.
Common signs of a rodent problem in Florida homes include:
- Droppings along baseboards, in cabinets, near food storage areas, or in the garage
- Gnaw marks on wood, drywall, insulation, or food packaging
- Grease or rub marks along walls and floorboards where rodents travel repeatedly
- Nesting material such as shredded paper, fabric, or insulation tucked into dark corners
- Scratching or scurrying sounds in the walls or ceiling, especially at night
- A stale, musty odor in enclosed spaces like attics, crawl spaces, or under cabinets
- Visible burrows or runways along the exterior foundation or in landscaping near the home
Any one of these signs on its own is worth taking seriously. Rodents move fast, breed faster, and the longer an infestation goes unaddressed, the more ground they cover inside a home. If something feels off, trust that instinct.
Rodent Exclusion Services That Keep Rats and Mice From Coming Back
Long-Term Rodent Prevention for the Home You Have Worked Decades to Build
Trapping and baiting can clear out an active infestation, but they do not solve the real problem. Rodents get in because your home has gaps, cracks, and openings that make entry easy. Until those access points are sealed, the same pressures that brought rodents in the first time will bring more.
Exclusion is the part of rodent control that actually prevents the cycle from repeating. A Hulett Environmental Services technician inspects your home for the structural vulnerabilities rodents exploit: gaps around pipe penetrations, deteriorated soffit and fascia, worn door sweeps, unsealed utility entries, and voids along the roofline. Rats can squeeze through an opening the size of a quarter. Mice need even less space than that.
Once those points are identified, they are sealed using durable materials matched to the surface and location. That means hardware cloth, steel wool-reinforced sealants, metal flashing, and other materials rodents cannot gnaw through. In South Florida, the warm and humid climate keeps rodent populations active year-round, so the coastal construction styles common across Palm Beach County and the Treasure Coast, with their tile roofs, stucco exteriors, and elevated foundations, require a trained eye to assess correctly. Hulett technicians know exactly where to look.
Exclusion work through Hulett comes with a warranty, maintained through a minimal monthly renewal that keeps your protection current. That ongoing coverage matters because your home's exterior is always subject to wear, weather, and change. If you have questions about how the exclusion process works or what the warranty covers, the answers are right below.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I handle rodent control on my own?
While DIY rodent control products are available, they are often ineffective for large infestations or in cases where rodents have found safe harborage areas within your home. Professional rodent control is more comprehensive, as it includes inspection, exclusion, and long-term monitoring to prevent future infestations.
How do I prevent rodents from coming back?
To prevent future rodent infestations, consider the following tips:
- Seal entry points: Ensure windows, doors, vents, and foundations are secure.
- Remove food sources: Store food in airtight containers and dispose of trash regularly.
- Keep the environment clean: Clean up crumbs, spills, and pet food promptly.
- Trim trees and shrubs: Rodents often use branches to access roofs and attics, so keep trees trimmed away from the home.
What are the health risks of a rodent infestation?
Rodents can pose serious health risks due to the diseases and parasites they carry:
- Disease Transmission: Rodents can spread diseases such as salmonella, hantavirus, leptospirosis, and lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) through their urine, droppings, and saliva.
- Parasites: Rodents are known to carry fleas, ticks, and mites, which can infest your home and lead to additional health risks for humans and pets.
- Allergies: The dander from rodents, along with their droppings and urine, can trigger allergies and asthma in sensitive individuals.
What are the signs of a rodent infestation?
- Droppings: Small, dark droppings near food sources, entry points, or in hidden areas.
- Gnaw marks: Evidence of chewing on wires, furniture, food packaging, or insulation.
- Nesting material: Rodents will gather soft materials like fabric, paper, and insulation to create nests.
- Sounds: Scratching, scurrying, or squeaking noises, especially at night.
- Odor: A musty or urine-like smell, often indicating an active infestation
What causes a rodent infestation?
Rodents often seek shelter and food inside homes and businesses due to:
- Easy access to food: Open food containers, trash, or pet food are attractive to rodents.
- Entry points: Gaps around windows, doors, and vents, as well as cracks in foundations, provide access.
- Harborage: Warm, dry spaces in attics, basements, and behind walls offer a safe environment for rodents to nest and breed.
What kind of damage can rodents cause?
Rodents, especially rats and mice, have a strong instinct to chew. They can gnaw through various materials to gain access to shelter, including:
- Wood: Rodents can chew on wooden beams, walls, and floors, weakening the structural integrity of your home.
- Drywall: Mice and rats can chew through drywall, causing holes and exposing insulation.
- Insulation: Rodents often chew through insulation, leaving areas exposed and reducing your home's energy efficiency.
- Pipes and Wires: Rodents frequently chew on electrical wires, which can cause short circuits, electrical fires, or power outages. They can also damage water pipes and gas lines, leading to leaks and increased risk of water damage or gas hazards.
Rodents can damage personal items by chewing or nesting in them, such as furniture, clothing, books, and electronics.
