Wildlife & Rodent Control in Waco, TX
The natural beauty of Central Texas unfortunately provides an ideal environment for a variety of rodents and other wildlife that can make their way into our homes. Luckily, ABC Home & Commercial Services can help! Our knowledgeable pros provide effective wildlife and rodent control in Waco, so you won't have to worry about these animals making themselves at home in yours.
Depending on which area of Waco you live in, any variety of rodents or animals may show up as an unwelcome presence in your home. Mice and rats are the most common rodents, but we also help our customers with squirrels, raccoons, opossums, armadillos and more.
Any rodent can create problems. It may gnaw through electrical lines and water lines, create holes in walls via sheetrock, baseboards and siding, and get into and spoil stored food. Rodents also pose a health risk when they take up residence in your home (even if you don’t actually see them), because they carry pathogens in their urine and feces that spreads around your home as they mark trails and go about daily activities.
The ABC Process
1. Contact ABC
When you contact us, we will schedule an inspection to get an understanding of the problem. In some cases, we can give you a quote over the phone.
2. Get An Estimate
If you have an inspection, we will send you a custom treatment plan and estimate afterward. Once we get your approval, we will schedule your treatment.
3. Treatment
We will come to your property and treat in common hiding and nesting areas. Over time, you will start seeing less and less activity.
4. Prevention
Customers with our ongoing pest management services will receive periodic retreatments to prevent the return of the most common pests in our area.
For rodent and wildlife control, we use a thorough treatment approach that has proven successful. First, a licensed inspector will inspect your home to determine the nature and extent of the problem. Whether it’s one animal or many, our inspector will zero in on the problem, where it exists and how extensive it is. Then, a highly trained rodent and wildlife control specialist will use the information gathered by the inspector to apply a treatment that is specific to the problem you are facing.
The specialist may set traps, find and close potential entry points through which the creatures are getting into your home, and maintain and remove wildlife caught in traps. We take the process seriously, are thorough, and we offer a full one-year warranty on our service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I handle rodent control myself with traps and some bait?
There are a variety of mousetraps and similar devices available to try to get rid of a lone mouse or a rat. Your cat may even be able to help out. Unfortunately, chances are that if you see one mouse or rat, there are others you don’t see.
A single mouse can produce a litter of six to eight mice in only three weeks. Moreover, they are adept at hiding during the day, then venture out at night in search of food. For other, larger forms of wildlife, basic traps won’t work at all—you need a professional solution.
Ultimately, in doing it yourself, catching them isn’t your biggest hurdle. The hardest part is finding their access and egress points and permanently sealing those up. Otherwise, you’re fighting a losing battle.

“6 Star Experience with the Lawn Care crew! I'm in town for just a few days to make our home market-ready. I walked out the backdoor to get a game plan going, and went right back inside and called ABC. Robert came out quickly to survey the project, and worked hard to get us a Next Day appointment (realtor pictures were in 48hrs!). Very communicative on scope of project, cost, and options. The technicians Pedro and Rafael made the magic happen though! Our project added to their already-full afternoon, they arrived professional, communicative, and cheerful. We had 20-trees worth of leaves on the ground and years of grass neglect, and -everything- is sorted and spotless now. I am thoroughly impressed with their speed, attention to detail, and teamwork. I should have called ABC 20-years ago and made this a regular habit!”

“Ed Matthews has been our tech for a while, and he's always exuding great customer service and is professional. He's nothing but open and honest, which is what we want in order to get things handled as needed. He's knowledgeable, explains things clearly on how we can improve treatments and what he's done for treatments thus far, and therefore the treatments we receive have been more effective since he's been servicing our community. Highly recommend- Thanks Ed!”
