About Fairfax Pro Rodent Control

Fairfax Pro Rodent Control is a rodent service built around one base: the City of Fairfax, Virginia. You call a phone line that is answered around the clock. We ask about your street, what you have seen and heard, and how urgent it feels. Then we arrange a visit, sometimes the same day.

There is no walk-in counter. The address listed for the business is for records only, not an office you can visit. Service happens at your property, which is where the problem is anyway. Everything starts with a call, and we do not use online forms.

Fairfax is a small independent city, distinct from the much larger surrounding Fairfax County, with neighborhoods ranging from the older Old Town core near the Historic District to newer development toward the city's outer edges. Those conditions shape where rodents get in.

Working in a defined area lets us plan around the same conditions again and again. Rats travel along Accotink Creek, Daniels Run and connected drainage. Mice use eaves and utility lines on older framing near Old Town. Newer construction can have unsealed gaps left from the build process. We look for these patterns first.

Finding how they get in matters more than counting how many you catch.

We follow four steps in the same order every time. Skipping any of them is how rodent problems come back.

• Inspect: we check the roofline, vents, utility entries, foundation and interior spaces to find the species and the entry points.
• Treat: we remove active animals using traps and tamper-resistant bait stations placed where children, pets and wildlife cannot reach.
• Seal: we close gaps with hardware cloth, sheet metal, mortar and similar materials that rodents cannot chew through.
• Follow up: we return to check the results and confirm the signs have stopped.

Each service page on this site describes one part of that plan in more detail. You can read about rodent exclusion for sealing, or rodent trapping and removal for the treatment stage. The full list of services shows everything we cover.

Rodenticides carry real risks for pets and wildlife. Secondary poisoning of animals that eat a poisoned rodent is well documented. So we use tamper-resistant stations, follow the product label, and place them out of reach. We also avoid scattering loose bait.

If you have children or pets, tell us on the call. We will plan placements around where they play and sleep. For cleanup we follow CDC guidance: ventilate, wear gloves, do not sweep or vacuum dry droppings, and disinfect before wiping.

• We do not make health claims. If you are worried about illness after contact with rodents or droppings, talk to a physician.
• We do not repair electrical wiring. If rodents have chewed wires, a licensed electrician should assess and repair them.
• We do not treat protected wildlife, and bats and similar animals go through the proper wildlife channels.
• We do not promise a fixed outcome or timeline. Every property is different, and we explain what we find.

In Virginia, commercial pesticide applicators must be certified through the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services. Ask any provider, including us, for a certification number and confirm it before work starts. Also ask what products will be used and where they will be placed.

A trustworthy provider will explain the plan in plain words and tell you which entry points need sealing. Be careful with anyone who only offers to set traps or only offers poison. Both leave the gaps open.

Homes make up most of our work, but shops, restaurants and offices have the same pests and more pressure from food waste and deliveries. Our commercial rodent control service covers those buildings. Call with a short description of the property and what you have noticed.
