Quick answer: Rat and mouse control in NYC typically runs $300–$800+, with the price driven mostly by exclusion — sealing the entry points that let rodents back in. A simple mouse job sits at the low end; a rat problem needing exterior sealing and ongoing service sits higher. Here’s how the number is built.

Get your rodent price — free inspection »

With rodents, the cheap quote and the expensive quote are often doing two completely different things. Setting traps is cheap and temporary. Finding and sealing how rodents get in — the exclusion work — costs more and is the only thing that actually keeps them out. This page explains what drives rodent pricing in NYC so you can tell the difference.

What drives your rodent price

Factor Effect on price
Mice vs. rats Rats usually mean exterior entry points and burrows — more work than mice
Exclusion / sealing The biggest variable — and the part that makes results last
Property size & access More square footage and harder access add labor
Severity & how long it’s been active Established infestations need more visits
One-time vs. ongoing monitoring Buildings and food businesses usually need a maintenance plan

Typical NYC ranges for planning. Your written price comes after a free inspection.

Why exclusion is worth paying for

A mouse can enter through a gap the width of a pencil; a rat needs only a quarter. If those gaps aren’t sealed, traps and bait just manage a population that keeps refilling — so you pay over and over. Our pricing includes finding and sealing those entry points, which is what turns a recurring rodent bill into a solved problem. Learn more on our rodent control & exclusion page, and see which areas have the most pressure in our NYC rattiest-neighborhoods data study.

The NYC rat context

The City has expanded Rat Mitigation Zones and stepped up enforcement, which means building owners increasingly need documented rodent control to stay ahead of complaints and violations. The NYC Health Department even runs a Rat Academy for owners and managers. For buildings, our rodent pricing rolls into a documented program — see multi-unit and co-op/condo pest control.

Rodent Cost FAQs

How much to get rid of mice in an apartment?

A contained mouse problem usually sits at the lower end of the range; the figure depends on entry points and severity. A free inspection confirms it. See rat vs. mouse for the difference.

Why are rats more expensive than mice?

Rats typically require exterior work — sealing larger entry points and addressing burrows — which adds labor and materials.

Is a one-time treatment enough?

For a light mouse problem, sometimes. For rats or buildings, ongoing monitoring plus exclusion is what keeps them gone.

Do you handle commercial and building rodent contracts?

Yes — documented programs for commercial and multi-unit properties.

How fast can you come?

We offer same-day and emergency service across NYC when availability allows.
