✅ Houston’s Trusted Rodent Removal Experts
If you’ve noticed droppings, scratching in the walls, or foul attic odors, don’t wait. First Choice Animal Solutions offers fast, licensed, and humane rodent control. We know how frustrating, overwhelming, and even scary a rat infestation can be. That’s why we provide a quick, thorough, and guaranteed process to eliminate the problem and secure your property against future invasions.
Rats often enter through small cracks or holes as tiny as a quarter. Once inside, they nest in attics, insulation, ductwork, and wall cavities—damaging your home and spreading disease. Early intervention is critical. Call our local Houston team today to schedule your free rodent inspection.
🛠️ Our Proven 3-Step Rat Removal Process
Step 1: Humane Trapping & Immediate Response
We begin by placing a combination of live traps, snap traps, or one-way exclusion valves, depending on the infestation level. This immediate trapping phase stops further damage to your home’s wiring, insulation, and drywall. Our techs are on-call 24/7, returning every 2–3 days to check, bait, and adjust traps for maximum effectiveness.
Step 2: Full-Home Rodent Exclusion
Trapping alone isn’t enough. Once trapping begins, we seal all entry points at both the roofline and ground level to prevent re-entry. Unlike competitors, we never use foam or wood that rodents can chew through. Our exclusion work uses custom-cut metal barriers, painted to match your home’s soffits—invisible to the eye, impenetrable to rodents. All exclusion work includes our industry-leading 2-year guarantee.
Step 3: Attic Fogging & Decontamination
Rodents leave behind bacteria, urine, feces, and pheromone scents that attract new colonies. After removal, we treat your attic with a three-phase disinfectant fogging system to eliminate biohazards and odor. In severe cases—especially when there’s a strong ammonia-like scent—we may recommend attic insulation removal and replacement to fully restore the space.

We will thoroughly inspect your property, identifying and sealing off potential points of entry. We will look for evidence of infestation and provide you a detailed treatment plan that guarantees the total removal of rats- as well as prevents them from ever returning.
🧠 Interesting Rat Facts
Rats are more than just a nuisance—they’re destructive, fast-breeding, and tough to eliminate without professional help. Here are a few facts that show how serious a rat problem can become:
👶 One female rat can have 4–6 litters a year, with 6–12 pups each time—that’s up to 72 rats a year from a single mother!
🐭 A rat can squeeze into your home through a hole the size of a quarter.
🌙 Rats are nocturnal, so scratching or scurrying sounds at night are often a clear sign of infestation.
🦷 Rats have powerful teeth that can chew through glass, cinderblock, aluminum, wiring, and insulation.
