Services
Rodent Exclusion is a thorough service focused on preventing rodents from entering your home. We locate and seal gaps, cracks, and holes using strong materials that resist rodent damage. By addressing entry points and reducing environmental attractants, this service provides long-lasting protection against infestations. Unlike other methods that respond after the fact, Rodent Exclusion emphasizes prevention, making it a more effective way to keep your home safe. Additionally, we give expert advice to help you uphold these protections, securing your home for the future.
Our unique method eradicates even the worst infestations and ensures they won’t come back. We’re so confident, we offer an extended warranty. Start your rat-proofing journey today with a free inspection and no-obligation estimate. If multiple treatments are advised, our rat exclusion professionals will develop a customized plan that suits your specific requirements and budget. Every Alley Cat rat control service also includes our exclusive lifetime rodent-free guarantee.
At Alley Cat, our technicians are trained to remove house mice from any part of your home—be it walls, basements, attics, or elsewhere. The process starts with a free inspection, where we identify all signs and risk areas. Should there be an infestation, our mice exclusion team will give you a free estimate.
Attic insulation provides warmth but can also become a breeding ground for rodents. Rodents reproduce rapidly, with 32-84 babies every 4 to 6 weeks, and they love nesting in insulation. The material absorbs urine and feces, which can result in mold, mildew, and harmful bacteria. The biggest concern is that rodent droppings leave a scent that invites more rodents into your home. This odor will stick around until the infestation is fully addressed, so it’s important to act quickly.
Promotions
Alley Cat offers a comprehensive Free Inspection to assess rodent activity in your home, identifying potential entry points and providing expert recommendations for effective exclusion and prevention. This detailed assessment ensures you have a clear understanding of the situation before committing to any services.

Alley Cat was thorough in their cleaning and disinfecting the whole house. They covered all the holes where the rats can come through. They said they will follow up in 2 weeks reguarding rat traps they have installed. I am very happy with their service and they are affordable compared to Mighty Men in Benicia.

Hello, Up til now, I had never seen or heard rats on my property. In the past, I have had mice, periodically, and I called another company who did better with pests. But today, I say good riddance to all the rodents with Alley Cat, which one of my tenants called. I was impressed with Lee, who did the initial assessment and education with me re signs of ongoing rodent infestation.
He made suggestions re how to detect rodents on the premises and even on my car engine! I made an appt and paid a small deposit. In little over a week a crew of 4 led by Williar, showed up. They all worked efficiently, diligently and steadily x4-5 hours cleaning, sealing, setting snap traps, and sanitizing my attic, crawl spaces, and any holes they discovered interiorly and exteriorly.
They were courteous, and Williar went above and beyond to answer my questions and patiently show me the work, including in the attic, that they had done. I took out the 3 year warranty, and will follow up as necessary. I know I am not the Only rodent victim in the Bay. I feel confident and I am thankful to Alley Cat for coming to my Rodent Rescue.

This is the 3rd company I have worked with and Alley Cat puts the others to shame. Very knowledgeable about prevention, professional, and very clean. This is the only rat remediation company that ever mentioned that it's not healthy for us to have the air filters on while they are working. I shut her to think of what happened with the other companies while they were working in the attic.

Huge shoutout to Alley Cat and all their work they did for us. Starting up, Lee our inspector, was amazing. He was very knowledgable, and easy to talk to! My girlfriend said she felt comfortable and safe working at home by herself with him present. Lee was very patient and kind answering all my questions leading up to us accepting the quote. When we were scheduled, Williar and his team were responsive, respectful, and wonderful to work with. They answered all my questions and explained each piece of work they completed. I highly recommend Alley Cat.

Staff is knowledgeable, friendly, and are always prompt in responding to texts/calls. Carefully explained all my options and prices were fair. Showed up on time to do the work (had insulation added in my attic to bring up to code) and cleaned up after they were finished. My house is just a little over 100 sq. ft. and it took them less than two hours to complete the work.

Alley Cat came in, did a very efficient and thorough assessment, gave a competitive bid, and did the work in the time they had estimated. I now have a three year warranty following the rodent exclusion service. I hope I won't need to call them but will be very comfortable working with them as needed to keep our home rat free!

The workers were very thorough. They found rat droppings in my garage, when I thought I had mice. Everything was cleaned and sanitized in both the garage and subarea, and all points of entry sealed. I especially appreciate the three-year warranty, so anything that occurs will be taken care of. Services Rodent extermination. More

The team was wonderful---professional, courteous, and hard-working. They seemed so thorough---on the roof, in the crawlspace, in the attic, in every room. They also kept the house very clean, and were careful to cover their shoes, lay down brown paper to walk on, and put up plastic sheeting to protect the contents of the rooms. Highly recommended!

A crew from Alley Cat rodent-proofed my house. During the initial inspection it was found that I had a rat, not mice as I thought. Since the first appt was weeks away (this is their busy time of year) I trapped the rat myself, but they fit me in when there was a cancellation. They cleaned up my attic and crawlspace and secured any entrance ways, both to the crawlspace and attic from outside and into my house, and they set traps but obviously didn't think they'd be necessary.
The receptionist always got back to me promptly (even if I hung up on hold) and the crew showed up basically on time, after a notice that they were on their way. They were very professional, took plenty of pictures to show me their work, and I hope they were affective -- there is a warranty. I would recommend them.

I appreciate the speedy service! Online scheduling to get an inspection the next morning.when your tenant alerts you theres a mouse in the house at 10pm and they're freaked out. Technicians put tenant at ease, diagnosis on point, clean up and disinfect done. Exceptional experience with a 3 year guarantee. Grateful and happy tenants. Boom. Problem solved.

We called Alley Cat for a bid concerning rats in the house. The person who came to provide the bid was very professional as well as personable. They provided a thorough explanation of what was happening and what would be done to alleviate the issue. They also provided us with an option that would save us money, while not impacting quality. When the technicians came again the whole crew were respectful, friendly but what we appreciated most was the professionalism.
They did not get impatient with our concerns. They found areas to treat that were not identified earlier by us. We had areas that we were unsure that they would identify and they had treated them before we asked. Additionally they left the house cleaner than when they arrived. Very pleased with the service.

Alleycat service techs are professional, thorough, responsive and considerate. They are clean, wear shoe covers and masks. As they are always punctual, I called about the arrival time for my tech's visit today. The receptionist was very apologetic and explained his car had broken down and another tech would be arriving shortly for my service visit.
As promised, Sergio arrived. He was very professional, responded to my concerns and noted that there was evidence of dampness in my basement. He explained mold and mildew could ensue and briefly explained that vapor wrapping is one way to confront that problem. I shared that I had experienced a broken sprinkler last week and hadn't been able to shut off the water.
He said he may have noted an area that was still drying out and let me know where it was located so I could recheck the area at a later date. You can expect "above and beyond" service from Alley Cat!

I have used Ally cat both personally and referred them to many of my clients. Compared with other similar companies their level of service and quality of workmanship is above and beyond.

We had a mouse living in the attic and crawl space of our single-family home. Alley Cat came out and did a thorough inspection. They returned to remove and clean up the mouse nest, block off the entrances, and set up traps. They came back twice to inspect the traps. It's been several months and we've seen no sign of mice. Also, during the inspection, they identified several of the heating vents in our crawl space were connected improperly.
I got a quote from an HVAC vendor to fix the vents, but Alley Cat made a counter offer that was less expensive. So we had them do that work too. The entire team was extremely professional. I would happily use them again and recommend them to a friend.

Great company. Excellent job and they have done exactly what they said they would do. Replaced all old insulation and sealed up the holes in the house. Plus, they have come back to take care of any critters who were still in there. I am very satisfied with this company and would use them again. I highly recommend this company.

The Alley Cat team were great! We used them for rodent proofing our house. The initial consultation was informative, scheduling was easy - they came when they said they would, professional and follow-up was exceptional. Their pricing was reasonable and a great value. Everyone working the phones to the field crew were very helpful and customer service oriented.
