I'd like to update my review since my first stellar review was for the initial estimate process only and I said I would update (but forgot). It's been 5 years and we've had plenty of people up in our attic since Rodent Masters completed our job and any time someone goes up there, I beg them to check and double check to ensure there are no rodent droppings. During this time, we have not heard a peep in the attic which is a complete 180 from what we were hearing before - it always sounded like the rats were having a party up there in the middle of the night. The process took about a month from start to finnish because the first thing they do is cover and patch all holes or entrances up so that nothing can get in (or out) and not just outside of the house but inside the attic and inside every single area from within the house. It's a LOT of work but they did it very well. Then, they came back and, in our case, because things were so bad, they sucked out all of the insulation and then reinsulated the entire attic with much higher quality material than what had been removed. Then they came back on final time to ensure there was no activity. So, I have no reason not to continue recommending Rodent Masters and I have for the last 5 years. I do think I will contact them soon though just to have someone do a walk around to ensure there are no new holes that have developed since they were last here. Highly recommend and I'm glad to see that the reviews continue to be outstanding since the one I gave 5 years ago! read more

I used Rodent Masters and couldn't be happier. From the start, communication was clear . Max walked me through the proposal and estimate with photos so I knew exactly what to expect. The crew showed up on time, was respectful of my home, and took care of the property with full remediation. After a few follow-ups, they honored their guarantee and I got my house back healthy. Fair pricing and zero hassle. Will call them again if needed. read more

It stated when we saw my son's bib had been chewed. My wife said hey I think we have a mouse or rat in the house: I thought she was paranoid and didn't take it seriously until.... I was watching tv with her after the kids went to sleep when a fat rat casually walked under my tv furniture and into the kitchen like she owned the place. I went to my neighbors house asking him to let me borrow his cat for the night. That did nothing. Zero curiosity. The next day my wife literally moved to my aunt's house with the kids. A friend recommended max. He and his team came over and they have this thing down to a science. They methodically came up with a customized extermination plan accompanied by an epic prevention plan. Never imagined all the detail that goes into pest control! 5 stars all the way. Thanks max. read more

Rodent Masters - These terrifying moments are over! Thanks Max! - Insulation Installation Near Me - Van Nuys, California

I hire Rodent master about more than two years ago, they couldn't solve my rodent issue. I still have the same issues even more than ever . I hear the rodent scratches and runaround all day and night. I don't have sleep. They wake me up every night and they chewed all my air ducts. They said they did rodent proofing but I saw with my own eyes a rat run into my crawl space from wall opening. I can even smell them in my bedroom I have attic opening in my bedroom. When I told that to the technician max he said he already checked the attic and didn't want to look again . Their traps are not working, they put a smear of peanut butter on it but it gets disappear, never caught even one rodent. I told him today just remove the trap you will see there is nothing on it , finally reluctantly he removed the trap it was empty. The traps are just decorative, it catches nothing. Every time they come they cover a small part with metal mesh . I waisted my money , time and destroyed my air ducts and my health. Breathing on that nasty smell it's not good for me . Quality of work is not good , they send those workers with dirty hands and clothes, I am even hesitant for them to come inside. I am not happy with their service at all. When i complain about their work he said i have to do smoke check, rodent are coming from a broken pipe but their own crew went down the crawl space and did not find a broken pipe or opening, and earlier i did sewer check i had no broken pipes . The rodent was able to enter my chicken from crawl space but they said they did all the rodent proofing, which was a lie . I am suffering financially and health wise because of their improper job of rodent proofing and they charged me thousands of dolors. read more

Rodent Masters - Rodent entered my kitchen from crawl space and stole a coffee pod , see droppings too - Insulation Installation Near Me - Van Nuys, California

One night I was with friends in my backyard, and a crazy fearless Mikey Mouse decided to say hi to us. We tried to catch him but his speed was unmatched, this little one it went straight up to the crawlspace and it disappeared. Of course, no way I'll go down there! I ended up calling some proffesional, I received from all of them bad news, crawlspace and attic infested! Because of the 14 years of experience, I went with Rodent Masters. Short story, they removed the infested insulation, cleaned the attic, installed new insulation and proofed the entire house. Since then, no more rats! Living in a clean healthy home comes with a price, and the peace, was given by Rodent Masters. Thank you guys! You all did a great job!. read more

I am a photographer, and I own a studio, 1913 art space production. We do mobile and on studio. One Client requested services in this incredible spot. So I went to check it out and I found some little issue there. I started calling companies and landed with Rodent Masters. They came same day I called, and for my luck, within hours a team showed up and started to treat the spa. We waited a couple days and no more issues! They fixed the problem in no time and my model got a beautiful photo session! Thank you guys, for the amazing job! We are all happy and your number is saved in my emergency contacts. You are an artist in this pest industry, a problem solver! I'll recommend you all over! Thank u again! read more

Rodent Masters - Insulation Installation Near Me - Van Nuys, California

The experience was not positive overall. When I agreed to have them take care of my rodent control issues, I thought they were going to be attentive and helpful, they were not. The sales associate who first visited was professional, communicative and knowledgeable. But, once we signed the contract and paid for the abatement, it became very difficult to make appointments, speak to the team and get information. The removal of our rodents and insulation was completed quickly, however getting the monthly inspections was challenging and frustrating. Each visit required multiple phone calls and was not a very pleasant process. The call center was not responsive, no one returned calls or was ever available for the scheduling of appointments. Each step required multiple calls and frustrating weeks of delays. I definitely felt like I got the run around. The difficulty with scheduling made us feel like it was entirely our responsibility to follow up and make sure the inspection was done. It was not easy or fluid. In the end we feel we overpaid for mediocre quality and did not have them back to install the new insulation. No one has ever taken the time to communicate with us again to check on the job, get a verbal review of our work satisfaction or inquire about future inspections. We would never use their services again. It's simply too expensive and labor intensive. As a consumer we expected a modicum of communication and follow up after investing in such an expensive project. read more

excellent service from rodent masters. After discovering a mouse in the kitchen, I contacted them and a technician performed a detailed inspections next morning. Activity was identified in the walls, interior and basement. The office accommodated a crew to my schedule, they came and sealed all entry points, sanitized affected areas, and set traps. Over three weeks consistent follow up's visits, they fully resolved the issue. My home is now completely secure from rodents. you guys are professional, reliable and highly effective! I strongly recommend their services! Thank you all! read more

I was referred to rodent masters by the next door guy! Looks like all his unwelcome friends decided to invade my property! In less than 24hrs, an inspector came and did a full evaluation. Two days later, a team did the remediation, cleaned the attic, sprayed all contaminated areas. After a few follow ups checking the progress making sure I have no more creatures. I am rodent free! Thank you team, I hope I will never have to call/need you again! For now, no more rats! Thank you all! read more

The best knowledgeable & friendly service outthere. I have used them for years & reccomend them for that reason.

We spent $5,100 to remove the rats from our attic. Within days of the company coming and charging us that amount, we had rats INSIDE our house. One rat scaled our living room wall while we watched TV. The next day, a rat perched upon our curtain rod in broad daylight. And the following day, a rat BIT my toddler and me in our sleep- meaning, it climbed into bed with us. Despite numerous attempts to contact the company, they did not respond. They took our money and ran, so to speak. $5,000 and we were left to fend for ourselves. Do not recommend. read more

Very professional and . They came quickly, they got the job done. I highly recommend.

I reached out to Rodent Masters a few weeks back, for insulation removal, clean up, new install, rodent proofing etc. Their usual services. They got me an appointment for the estimate quickly. Juan was great, very professional. I was told I'd get a quote by EOD. It never arrived. I followed up about a week later to request it and was told it'd be over by EOD. Still no quote. I verified my email and checked the Junk folder daily for another week--still nothing. Juan was solid and I would've like to have done business with him. read more

Wow!!!!! This company is absolutely amazing and super professional!!! I had a rodent issue in my home because my next-door neighbors were dealing with an infestation and they started making their way into my place also. I tried handling it myself at first, but I honestly DON'T recommend that because it ended up getting worse and I realized they were multiplying very fast. That was very stressful! That's when I decided to call Rodent Masters after another neighbor recommended them. Funny enough, it ended up being a few of us neighbors on the same street using their services. At first we were even confused because we kept hearing noises in the walls and thought it might be something else like "ghosts" lol but it turned out to be rodents. The owner was very helpful, patient, kind and the staff was super professional and easy to work with. They explained everything clearly and took care of all my rodent concerns. Overall it was a good experience and we're finally relieved the issue is under control! Definitely recommend them if you're dealing with something similar. read more

We had received multiple quotes from multiple companies and these guys were surprisingly one of the least professional, they carelessly showed up late to the appointment, the guy doing the inspection was in a rush and decided it was okay to park his truck on my lawn, they came dressed in a full hazmat suit and when they were finished they left it for us to clean up after them. Communication has been minimal with them overall not a good first impression, the quote we received was outrageous. Brought up these concerns to the manager he was dismissive and rude. read more

Rodent Masters first serviced my home in 2023 and I was so impressed. They were prompt for appointments and incredibly kind and thorough. Having mice was the worst. I had tried everything else and was at my wits end. The Rodent Masters staff were so understanding and made the remediation process easy. I especially appreciated how much care they took working in my home. They were meticulous with drop clothes, etc. I haven't had a single issue since they came. Just recently I took advantage of their five year guarantee and asked them to reinspect my property. Again, it was a wonderful experience! read more

I called them months ago, price was not cheap, neither the most expensive! I read all reviews on Yelp and decided to go with Rodent Masters. It was a fight, non stop fallow ups, and repairs!. We had to get involved a plumber, for our luck, a drain pipe was cracked. Pipe came from sewer and somehow ended up between the walls. Which it was one of the main access!. All repaired now! We have our house back and free of intruders!. I hope i dont have to call them back, but I have a guaranteed in case in need them in the future!. Thank you guys read more

Great service. The Rodent Masters free initial inspection was timely and thorough. A report complete with photos was provided by the end of the day. They gave me a reasonable quote compared with two other companies and I hired them to start 2 days later. They completed the job and gave me a 5 year guarantee. I was so happy with their work I hired them to work on a second property I own in Santa Monica. They also did a great job there as well. read more

If you have the horrible problem this is the company to call!!!!! Once they are done you will have piece of mind because they do an awesome job. Juan (he comes out to access) is unbelievably thorough, he goes under the house, in the attic everywhere . There pricing is fair for the job they do. Its my worst nightmare and now I can sleep in peace. I have recommended them to several people. Excellent company to work with!!!!!! read more

used rodent masters a few months back and i wanted to wait to see the results before posting a review. booking a consultation and estimate was incredibly easy and the technicians are very friendly. i think my consultation was on an overbooked day due to him being quite late, but can't hate on it. i been hearing scurrying and scratching in my walls for months before deciding to do anything about it. i got estimates from a few companies, and rodent masters price was fairly similar to the industry standard. i paid for exclusion and from the day of booking a consultation, i had my whole house excluded within a week and a half. honestly could have been sooner if i had time to be home. they sealed off all the openings in my house from top to bottom and even random holes that i found in my front yard. its been more than two months now and not a sign of those dang rodents. no more scritch scratching in the walls at night and now i can sleep in peace. read more

Great timely service quality work. Had my house proofed, attic insulation removed and sanitized.

There are many famous Charlies (Chaplin, Barkely, Sheen, Garcia), but there is only one Charlie that is worth knowing in the pest control game and that's Don Charlie from Rodent Masters. Don Charlie was able to diagnose and prescribe an action plan to address my pest problem. I appreciated his professional manner, insight, courtesy... but what i specially liked was his attention to detail. Once the work was agreed upon, he and his team did as planned, cleaned up any trash and were mindful of their surroundings (we have a lot of plants). The only reason why i gave this place a 4, not a 5 is that one door to the crawl space needed custom work. I thought it was included in the budget, but it wasn't. The Giant of Ecuador p.s. Rodent Masters came today and picked up one of the little rascals that was causing havic... #teamdoncharlie read more

I went with Rodent Masters after getting a few quotes for rodent abatement in my attic. I had been hearing noises from the attic for a while. Their foreman/inspector came by, took a look, and confirmed there were signs of rats and/or mice coming and going. On the day of the service, their crew showed up around 8am and got busy vacuuming out all the old broken-down cellulose insulation which the rodents had been using as nesting areas. After vacuuming thoroughly and sanitizing the attic using a chemical treatment, they went all over the attic and the crawlspace, locating entry points and sealing them off. They were done by late afternoon. I was impressed with how thorough the crew was. Several free follow-up inspections later, they were able to confirm there was no new rodent activity. I'm happy with the service they provided; good value for what they charge. read more

Here's my experience: Called for an estimate, guys showed up and did a good job explaining. The bids came in high, my opinion of course, and I agreed to get +/- $2K of work performed. Work took about 7 hours to complete. Later that night I heard rodent activity, I emailed my rep and did not get a reply. Several days later I got a reply. I thought I was booked but then a no call / no show. I called and left a message, still no reply. Feedback: Turn around on bids is quick, work was quick. Service after you've paid them money for the work is not great so far. Hoping that will change. read more

We recently discovered rodents in our home. Rodent Masters responded immediately to our request for inspection. They sent Pablo to inspect our home. Pablo was super friendly and professional. He did a great job explaining his findings and possible treatments available to resolve our rat issue. Discovering rats in our home after a major construction project was the worst news we could hear but Pablo put us at ease. Thank you Pablo! read more

I do not understand why I had such a bad experience with this company. They seem to have a great rating on Yelp, but my experience is a 1 out of 5. It seems that they could care less about assisting with animal removal. An appointment was scheduled, with specific instructions that were not followed. When I followed up the same day & the next, I never got confirmation whether their services were complete. I did not receive the answer until my 4th call to the office, in which their reasoning was excuse after excuse. I am sure they do great work, but I was put through the wringer for no reason. Just moving onto the next since they seemed to once again, not care, about a potential job. read more

Max is correct. The email/estimate was sent and somehow ended up in my "deleted" folder. I wish they would have told me that when I called to follow up. I apologize for any inconvenience or confusion. read more

Didn't have a good experience with this company , I had them come out to inspect my home in marina del ray , this guy shows up in a unmarked white van and introduced himself as the inspector, I explained him that we had our home rat proofed 5 years ago with another company and a new hole must've opened . He right away insisted he check the attic , upon popping his head inside briefly he began making a commotion and showed me pictures of what supposedly was my attic insulation all torn up and loaded with rat poop the "inspector" then ran to his unmarked van put on a white hazmat suit and made a big deal about the whole situation and insisted it's necessary to remove our insulation . I asked him for the photos and let him know I'll get back to them - a week later and after multiple requests for the photos still no reasponse , the other 3 companies I had all let me know that my insulation was in top condition and that the photos the "inspector" showed were from a total different house . the inspector even threw his "hazmat" suit on the floor by the entrance to the house . What a slob zero stars for your dishonesty and uncleanliness. Update : I uploaded pictures of ur van and yes it was ur company . read more

Rodent Masters has been doing an amazing job with treatment with the mice in my attic. They came out and identified the problem right away and have been very responsive and diligent with their work and coming out to check on the situation. I absolutely recommend them and the crew is so knowledgeable and nice. I am very confident that my situation will completely be resolved within the next few weeks.. thank you Rodent Masters! read more

These guys did a really top quality job on our house, interior and exterior. Even found the exact spot inside a wall that an uncapped outdoor pipe led into and was the source of our critters. A year later when we found a mouse inside the house I called and they showed up the next day at no charge, re-inspected the whole house and confirmed there was no access from outside (must've come in through open door, not seen another since). Great service, great quality, and they stand by their work. 5 stars. read more

We hear pest(s) in our attic, so we decided to reach out to get an estimate. We are located in La Puente. Scheduled for a free estimate on Saturday and they called back the same day, saying that they are not available that day, as they were "booked up." Fine, we set up for an appointment on Monday from 12PM to 2PM, after verifying our address for the second time. Got an email at 7:38PM Sunday stating that they are cancelling, as they do not service our area. Got another follow-up email on Monday around 12:16PM, asking if we have received their first email. First of all, if this is a cancellation, a call would've been more professional. I understand that Sunday night might not have been the best time to call, but you had ample of time to call on Monday from morning - noon. This is unacceptable. I had to take the day off to get this sorted. I'm sure their service is great, but it appears they do not know where they service. Might I suggest using Google Maps to check where we are located and even Google Calendar (it also appears they have an overbooking problem, not just for us, but other customers)? read more

We purchased a new house in Redondo Beach and about 2 yrs after moving in we heard noises in our living room wall. After getting bids from three companies, we chose Rodent Masters because of 1) price, 2) their warranty, and 3) the thoroughness of their inspection and resulting bid. They returned to rodent proof our home and we became "empty nesters" again for just over a year. Then we heard noises again in the wall. Rodent Masters responded quickly and Juan identified their new access point and repaired it during the same visit. He also told me if rats were trapped inside the house, there would likely be two. The next day there were two trapped rats by one of the access points to the crawl space. He said that's where they would likely be if any were still left in the house after closing off their access point. They need to get out to feed and they will travel within a house until they find daylight which means a way out. Excellent detection and remediation work by Juan and Rodent Masters. I highly recommend them if you're in the greater LA area. Excellent pricing, excellent service, and they stand by their warranty with zero hassle. read more

Rodent Masters missed their appointment . I texted them within their appt window & asked for an update on their eta for the inspection & received no reply. After the appt time I received a reply indicating they had a software problem & double booked , but noted I had not confirmed the appt. I had confirmed the appt. They also pointed out that their appts were " first come, first served "  They offered to rebook, but I declined. Had they simply given me a " "hey, we screwed up & sorry "  response, I would have reconsidered. I don't know if this company is good or not, but I'm extremely disappointed in how they handled their missed appt. read more

We've been with Rodent Masters for many many years...living on a hill means we have to share the space with rodents and sometimes they find a way into the house...when we first moved into our house, we were unaware of how to handle rodent problems, so we contacted a couple other companies that came and charged us to set up some traps (that didnt catch anything anyway) or did some sloppy patch work...we had to pay them every single time they came (and they did virtually nothing)...we finally found Rodent Masters and liked that they had a guarantee (as we quickly learned, having rodents is never a one and done kind of situation)...they definitely seem expensive but it's been worth it...ideally neither of us want them coming back to our house so I always feel like they're doing their best to patch everything up and keep the rodents at bay. My only complaint is that sometimes they're too busy to come right away so that fresh catch quickly becomes...not so fresh (IYKYK) but understandably, we're not their only customer and they're busy working hard. read more

Rodent Masters is a fantastic company and the first one that I have used which was able to stop myself from getting into my house. Their rates are competitive and they are very responsive to any calls or emails, they also offer a guarantee which ensures that they will visit your house free of charge to help resolve any rodent issues that may come up for five years. People often try mouse traps, poison and other pest control solutions, none of these solutions work when it comes to mice or rodents. In order to resolve these issues you need a real company to come in and actually figure out how these rodents are getting in and close those openings up, Rodent Masters can do that for you.. read more

Great service I recently used their service and I am glad picked them among 5 companies. Honest people and fair price. Job was done as promised. I met Max the owner at the site Job. Fair and great guy. I highly recommend this company and rest assured you won't go wrong by choosing them. I will write more about them later. read more

Max I am the property manager, empowered by the property owner to make and and execute decisions of this nature. Had you actually called me back the two times I did try to contact you you would have been made well aware of this fact and received confirmation of the powers vested in me. read more

We had a major infestation ... of RATS! We were catching several a day with an electric zap tunnel and snap traps but they kept coming in and were very active at night. They were even nibbling around a light fixture in the ceiling in an attempt to get in after we blocked their usual routes of entry -- so we knew they were multiplying in the attic. Our previous service had done a good job in figuring out how and where the rats were getting in, and they had let us know that the latest entry was under our deck in the backyard. But that company wasn't willing to go under the deck and block that hole and any others from the crawl spaces that lead to the attic. So we called Rodent Masters. The inspectors from Rodent Masters did a thorough job of inspection and located every access point and then blocked them all. They got under the house, under the deck, entered every crawl space and blocked off everything. Then they got in the attic and did the same after removing our old and outdated insulation from the 1920s. And they were total professionals from the get-go. It was a friendly, responsible crew that cleaned up, put it all back in place, and in the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic the crew wore masks and social distanced. Since then, the rats have stopped coming in -- no more "activity", nothing. The follow ups were just as thorough -- there were two of them before the final stage of the process which was blowing new insulation into the attic. That's the other thing we got out of this -- our 1920s house had old, shredded newsprint from the 1920s as our insulation, something that the rats found to be very comfy-cozy. Now we have modern, thick, fireproof insulation that's as white as snow and should lower heating and AC costs. The process took a while -- the inspectors spaced out the inspections to make sure that the repairs held before the re-insulation was completed. But the rats ended on the day the first service was done and that has held for almost three months now. We got several estimates from other companies who would do both the rat-proofing and the insulation and Rodent Masters came in with the lowest bid. It was not cheap, but we know what we got was a very fair price for excellent work. read more

I'm so glad I chose Rodent Masters. I got four bids for securing the house (attic and under crawl space). The bid was extremely professional. The problems were pointed out very matter of factly and accurately. The representative looked in all the relevant locations and took photos. There were two best bids in terms of clarity and price point. Rodent masters totally delivered. They were impeccable for cleanliness and respectfulness. The entire crew was knowledgeable. I was given accurate times for tasks and a time table for the entire job. Between the initial removal of insulation and insulation replacement is a month to ensure that the initial job was complete and that nothing was trapped inside. The checks were done with a lot of feedback and all questions answered. They use 38 roll insulation which is preferable when possible. My attic looks the best it has since I moved it. All questions were answered clearly. Nothing promised that could not be delivered. The shed yes (so glad those rodents are removed), outside, that's no win but techniques were suggested to reduce outdoor rodent population. All suggestions were ecosystem sound (no poison). This is especially important in a house with pets. Everything was done in a timely fashion. The warranty is two years (double most bids). I'm very grateful the representative Charlie was so knowledgeable as it made the final decision a bit easier. I will be recommending to friends and already told a work colleague to get a quote. Bravo Rodent Masters. This has been a great investment in my home. It's really great to know the rodents are outside but have no way in. I couldn't be more satisfied by the professional well executed work! read more

I had weird sounds coming through the wallsi in my living room I did some researching knowing that it could be rodents. After making some appointments with a few companies we decided to go with Rodent Masters as sounds like they have experience with this. They showed up on time, did a free evaluation and walked me through every step. The proposal was good so I decided to go with them. The Job was done on time. We had to open up the wall and found a nest with little Babies inside ! Daays later, we got 2 big ones from the crawlspace and since then, I have been rodent free. Thank you guys, I hope we never have to use the guarantee read more
