Rodent infestations may spread diseases through their urine, droppings, and saliva. The longer you wait, the worse it gets.
Look, nobody wants to deal with rats and mice in their home or business. These uninvited guests don’t just create a mess—they bring potential health hazards that can affect your family or customers. Whether you’re hearing scratching sounds at night or finding droppings in your kitchen, we get it. You need this problem solved, and you need it solved right by a qualified pest control team.
Get A Free EstimateManhattan alone has… well, let’s just say countless rodents. The subway tunnels, aging buildings, constant construction, food sources everywhere—it’s basically rodent paradise. They find access through holes you wouldn’t even notice, set up shop behind your walls, and before you know it, you’ve got a full-blown infestation.
Rats can squeeze through gaps smaller than a quarter. Mice? Even tinier spaces. They’re not picky about where they live either—apartments, restaurants, office buildings, warehouses. If there’s food and shelter, they’ll move in.
Here’s what to watch for (and honestly, if you’re seeing any of these signs, call us today):

We don’t mess around with one-size-fits-all approaches. Every property is different, every rodent population has its own patterns. That’s why Broadway Pest Services uses a combination of proven techniques tailored to your specific situation.
Our team identifies entry points, nesting areas, and the scope of your infestation. We look for gnaw marks, track rodent waste, and map their travel routes.
Snap traps, bait stations, and specialty traps positioned where rodents actually travel. No guesswork—just results.
Sealing access points with the right materials. Steel wool, mesh, caulking—whatever it takes to keep them out for good.
Removing food sources and conditions that attract rodents. This includes securing pet food, managing garbage cans properly, and more.
Rodents aren’t just annoying—they can pose genuine health risks. These animals may carry diseases that can transfer to humans through direct contact or contaminated surfaces. Salmonella, Hantavirus, Leptospirosis… the list goes on.
Their droppings and urine create potential health hazards, especially in kitchens and food storage areas. Plus, they bring other pests along—mites, ticks, and insects that feed on rodent blood can infest your space too.
Children and elderly family members face higher risks. Pregnant women need to be particularly careful around rodent waste. This isn’t something you want to handle yourself with basic traps from the hardware store.
.Sure, you could try snap traps and hope for the best. But here’s the thing—rodents are smart. They learn to avoid traps, find new entry points, and multiply faster than you can eliminate them. A single pair of mice can produce multiple litters quickly.
Professional exterminators use commercial-grade equipment and proven strategies. We know where to place traps for maximum effectiveness, which baits work best for different species, and how to seal entry points so they stay sealed.
The right tools make all the difference. Our team carries specialized equipment that isn’t available to consumers, and we know how to use it safely around pets and families.
Most people focus on catching the rodents they can see. Problem is, for every mouse or rat you spot, there are probably ten more you haven’t seen yet. Store-bought solutions might catch a few, but they don’t address the root cause or prevent future infestations.
Plus, improper trap placement can actually make things worse. Scared rodents will relocate to areas that are harder to access, making professional treatment more difficult later.
Different neighborhoods face different challenges. Ground-floor apartments near restaurants deal with different rodent pressures than high-rise buildings. Older brownstones have unique entry points compared to modern construction.
We’ve worked throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island. Each borough has its own patterns—subway proximity, building age, surrounding businesses, waste management practices. All of these factors influence how we approach your rodent control strategy.
Restaurant owners know that rodent problems can shut down operations overnight. Property managers understand that tenant complaints about mice can lead to serious issues. Homeowners just want their families safe and their property protected.
After we eliminate the current infestation, keeping them out requires ongoing attention. Rodents constantly search for new territories, especially during colder months when outdoor food sources become scarce.
Proper food storage is critical—sealed containers, elevated pet food bowls, regular cleaning of crumbs and spills. Garbage management matters too, especially in multi-unit buildings where one careless tenant can create problems for everyone.
Structural maintenance prevents re-entry. Small holes around pipes, gaps under doors, damaged window screens—these are highways for rodents. Broadway Pest Services identifies these vulnerabilities during our initial inspection.
Sometimes rodent populations explode quickly. Construction work nearby can displace entire colonies into your building. Seasonal weather changes drive them indoors. Restaurant closures in your area might redirect hungry rats to your property.
Severe infestations require immediate action. Multiple trapping stations, intensive monitoring, sometimes coordination with neighboring properties. These situations need prompt attention.
Our response team handles urgent cases across New York City. We understand that some situations need prompt attention, especially when health risks are involved or when commercial operations are threatened.
