Rodent Control in Sexton Mountain and Murray Hill

Sexton Mountain is one of Beaverton's named neighborhoods, and Murray Hill sits in the Neighbors Southwest area of the city. Both are mostly residential, with hillside streets and patches of green space between the houses.

Green space behind the houses is good for wildlife and good for rodents. Most calls from here are about mice in garages and crawl spaces in the fall, and rats under decks that face open space.

Decks Over the Greenbelt

Plenty of houses here have a raised deck out back. The space under that deck is dry, dark and close to the crawl space vents, which makes it a natural spot for rats to dig in. Keep it clear of stored things, and have the provider check the vents nearby. Rat control covers burrows.

Garages on the Hill

Two-car garages with long door seals and lots of stored stuff are where mice get their start. Replace worn seals, get boxes up on shelves and keep bird seed and pet food in sealed bins. See mouse control.
