Rodent Control in Middleburg, FL

Rats and mice get into Middleburg homes through small gaps around pipes, vents, rooflines, garage doors and crawl spaces, looking for food, water and shelter. Keeping them out means finding those entry points and closing them, and removing what draws them in. Honeywell’s Pest Control offers free rodent estimates at (904) 415-1083.

    We look over the home inside and out for the gaps and openings rodents are using.

  3. Agree the plan and price

    You get the plan and the price before work starts, and the price holds.

  4. Deal with the rodents inside

    We remove the rodents already in the home and check back on the activity.

  5. Close the entry points

    We help shut the openings they used and point out what is drawing them in, so they stay out.

Florida facts

Rats and mice in Florida: what UF/IFAS says

From UF/IFAS Extension guidance, including an archived UF/IFAS fact sheet on rat and mouse control:

  • Roof rats climb and nest high, in attics, roof spaces and palm trees, and gnaw wires and rafters.
  • Norway rats burrow and are most common along the coast and canals; house mice live in walls and cabinets.
  • Rats can get through cracks about 1/2 inch wide and mice through 1/4 inch: any place a pencil can be poked, a mouse can go.
  • UF/IFAS advises sealing gaps with hardware cloth or steel mesh, trimming limbs that overhang the roof, and using snap traps before poison.

  • Drew was incredibly professional while at our home. He explained everything he was doing to put my wife and I at ease. I could not ask for better service from him. If you are in need of pest control, please give Drew a call.

  • Drew was professional, thorough and easy to work with. He showed up on time and was prompt with the follow up documentation we needed. His rates are reasonable and we look forward to working with him in the future.

    Unclehookey Google review · 2023

  • Drew was so helpful! He performed a thorough inspection on two properties for us and went above and beyond to ensure peace of mind regarding pests. We even found a dead cockroach about 15 feet outside of our home the next day, so the exterior treatment appears to be working wonderfully. …
