House Mice
These small rodents are a familiar pest that can breed and spread quickly in secluded places such as attics and inside walls. This makes them difficult to get rid of without professional help.

Call us for expert rodent control in Phoenix.
KY-KO provides rodent control across the Phoenix metro — including roof rats, the Valley's most common rodent invader (activity peaks October–February), plus house mice and pack rats. We trap, remove, and seal entry points so rodents don't come back, using pet-safe methods. Our company has more than 20 years of experience removing mice, rats, and roof rats from homes and businesses in the Phoenix metro area. That’s why we back our work with a guarantee.
We deal with all types of mice and rats.
Rats
Infamous carriers of disease, rats can be a nuisance in your home. Larger than mice, rats are hardy survivors who will travel far to find shelter and food. If you suspect you have rats, call us now.
Roof Rats
These rats travel from overhanging trees to your roof, where they’ll find shelter in your roof or attic. They’re common here in Phoenix, where citrus trees provide them a steady food source.
Roof Rats
Pack Rats (Woodrats)
Pack rats build nests out of debris and are attracted to shiny objects. They’re common in desert areas and can damage vehicles and outdoor structures by chewing on wiring.
Signs of a Rodent Infestation
- Droppings in hidden areas
- Gnawed wires or materials
- Scratching noises at night
- Nesting in dark spaces
- Foul, musky odors indoors
Risks of Rodent Infestations
- 01
Disease Transmission
Rodents carry diseases like Hantavirus, salmonella, and leptospirosis, which can spread through droppings, urine, or bites, posing severe health risks to humans and pets.
- 02
Allergic Reactions
Rodent fur, droppings, and saliva can trigger allergies or asthma in sensitive individuals, especially children, worsening respiratory conditions.
- 03
Food Contamination
Rats and mice contaminate food and surfaces with pathogens, making kitchens and pantries unsafe and increasing the risk of foodborne illnesses.
- 04
Fire Hazards
Rodents gnaw on electrical wiring, creating a serious fire risk in homes and businesses if left unaddressed.
- 05
Structural Damage
Chewing on wood, insulation, and drywall weakens structural integrity, potentially leading to costly repairs over time.
- 06
Reputation Risks for Businesses
For commercial properties, rodent infestations can damage reputations, result in health code violations, and drive customers away.
How much does rodent control cost in Phoenix?
KY-KO rodent control starts with a free inspection. Final cost depends on the rodent type (roof rats vs. mice vs. pack rats), the severity of the infestation, and how many entry points need sealing. Every job begins with an upfront quote — no per-trap surprises.
Our Process
Free Inspection
Pinpoint the type of rodent (e.g., roof rats, house mice) and the severity of the infestation to customize the control strategy effectively.
Identification
Pinpoint the type of rodent (e.g., roof rats, house mice) and the severity of the infestation to customize the control strategy effectively.
Treatment
Implement targeted measures, such as traps, bait stations, or exclusion techniques, to remove rodents safely and effectively from the property.
Prevention
Seal entry points, address attractants like food or clutter, and provide maintenance tips to ensure the infestation does not recur.
Roof RatsWhy sealing beats poison
Bait kills the rodents you have but does nothing to stop the next ones — and rodents that die in a wall cause lingering odor. Long-term control comes from exclusion: sealing the gaps rodents use to get in. Mice can squeeze through a gap about ¼ inch wide (roughly a pencil), and rats through about ½ inch (roughly a quarter).
That's why we finish every job with entry-point sealing, and for whole-home protection we offer our 25-step home sealing process.
Pet-safe and family-safe methods
We prioritize tamper-resistant, enclosed trap-and-exclusion methods over loose poison, so treatment stays safe around dogs, cats, and kids.

FAQ
Common questions.
KY-KO rodent control starts with a free inspection. Final pricing depends on the rodent type, infestation size, and how many entry points need sealing.
Roof rats are sleek, dark, agile climbers that nest high in attics and citrus trees — the most common rat in Phoenix. Pack rats are stockier, build large debris nests at ground level, and chew vehicle wiring. See our comparison table above.
Poison kills current rodents but won't stop new ones, and dead rodents in walls cause odor. Sealing entry points is what keeps rodents out for good, which is why we trap, remove, and seal.
Yes. We prioritize tamper-resistant, enclosed trapping and exclusion over loose poison, keeping treatment safe around pets and children.
Most infestations resolve over a couple of weeks: trapping first, sealing once activity drops, then a follow-up to confirm. Heavier roof rat infestations can take longer.
