Our house had been a rental (not disclosed before we bought) consequently we had all kinds of pests Including squirrels, upon move in we quickly noticed. We used the pest company that did our termite inspection. Regional Pest control.

"...all kinds of pests..." because it was a rental?

I can help you with this.

I had this problem and it turned out to be Rats in the attic.

They got in from 2 small openings in the eves.

After checking around I went with " Truly Nolen " Pest Control.

They went into the attic laid traps, inspected the whole roof, sealed off the openings, and solved the problem.

Here is the contact information: 352-247-7722

They are in the Villages 4056 Wedgewood Lane.

I am now with them.

Sorry got the number off the business card the person gave me when they quoted the job, that person has since left Truly Nolen.

Here is the up to date contact:

Doug Heise
Service Coordinator
Office: 352 430-0046
Cell : 352 492-8014


By the way most pest control companies leave baited traps outside, which really don't address the problem. The vermin can take the bait into the attic and die which is not good.

We also had a varmint living in membrane of Lanai. Called Trapper King and they came out, set up traps and closed that little stinker squirrel's hole up. That was over a year ago. No problem since. Highly recommend Trapper King Animal Removal, 888-991-5464

Palm trees near your house? Likely source of the rats

Default Squirrels or Rodents

I found a rat outside of my lanai one evening recently. I called Dean's (who does my pest control). They set a rat trap out the next morning.
