Rodent Control in North Texas
Proactive Rodent Protection with Bait Box Monitoring
Rodent activity is a common concern across North Texas, especially as seasonal changes drive rats and mice closer to homes and buildings in search of shelter and food. For many property owners, the most effective long-term solution is staying proactive before activity becomes a larger issue.
At Myles Pest Services, our Rodent Maintenance Plan uses secured exterior bait stations to help reduce rodent pressure around your property over time. This service is designed specifically for rats and mice, and it’s a great preventative option to bundle with existing pest coverage.
How Rodent Bait Boxes Help Prevent Problems
Rodent bait boxes are placed in strategic exterior locations where rats and mice commonly travel. These tamper-resistant stations help:
- Reduce rodent population pressure over time
- Monitor ongoing activity around the structure
- Provide consistent protection in high-risk areas
- Support long-term prevention after exclusion work
This plan is ideal for homeowners who want ongoing coverage and fewer surprises throughout the year.

A Complete Rodent Control Process (When Activity Is Present)
For active rodent problems, bait boxes are most effective when used as the final step in a complete control strategy. Our process is designed to solve the root issue—not just the symptoms.
1. Inspection & Identification
We begin with a detailed inspection to determine what type of rodent is present and how it’s getting inside. Common entry points include roofline gaps, vents, and openings around utility lines.
2. Targeted Trapping & Removal
If activity is confirmed, we implement professional trapping methods to address the current population quickly and discreetly.
3. Professional Exclusion
Removal is only part of the solution. Exclusion work seals entry points to prevent rodents from returning, making long-term control possible.
4. Ongoing Bait Box Monitoring (Rats & Mice Only)
Once the structure is protected, bait boxes provide continued exterior monitoring and population reduction to help keep rodent pressure low moving forward.
Keep your home comfortable and pest-free with ongoing, proactive treatments designed to help prevent infestations before they start. Year-round protection saves time, reduces stress, and supports a non-harmful environment for your family and pets.
Rodent & Wildlife Exclusion Services
In addition to mice and rats, Myles Pest Services provides trapping and exclusion support for:
- Squirrels
- Raccoons
- Opossums
These situations require a more customized approach, and our team will explain options clearly after inspection.
Common Rodent Issues in North Texas
Rodents thrive in urban and suburban environments where food sources, shelter, and warmth are readily available.
Common concerns include:
- Rats nesting in attics, wall voids, and crawl spaces
- Mice entering kitchens, garages, and storage areas
- Gnawing damage to wiring, insulation, and ductwork
- Contamination of food storage areas and surfaces
- Noises, such as scratching or movement, often noticed at night
Rodents can also introduce bacteria and parasites into living and working environments, which is why early identification and timely action are essential.
