Dealing with rats or mice this season? We locate entry points, set professional-grade traps and tamper-resistant bait stations, and back every visit with a re-service guarantee so your home stays protected.
Our Process
Simple. Thorough. Every Time.
The Sage team begins by inspecting your home for signs of rat activity.
We check hidden entry points, for example, garages, crawlspaces, and gaps around utility lines.
Next, your technician treats the issue by placing professional snap traps along interior travel paths and setting up tamper-resistant bait stations around the exterior foundation.
We finish with prevention by sealing minor exterior openings.
The Tri-Annual Story
Our rates are competitive at $6.75 per linear foot for our baiting system. We then charge $74/mo for ongoing maintenance with $100 off the initial pest service.
Our products are designed to keep working long after we leave. No drop-off between visits, just consistent protection month after month.
Pests can develop resistance to repeated applications of the same active ingredient. We rotate active ingredients between visits so pests can't build resistance. Resistance prevention is built into every plan, not an afterthought.
