Rodent control in Newark is a year-round job. Norway rats live in sewer lines, vacant lots, rail edges and the ground under older foundations. House mice move into rowhouses, apartments and offices, most of all when the weather turns cold. Newark’s mix of attached homes, apartment buildings, restaurants and warehouses gives both plenty of food and shelter. Clearview Pest Control Inc. removes rats and mice in every ward and seals the gaps they use, from our Hudson County office in Bayonne.

Where rats and mice get into Newark buildings
- Rowhouses and attached homes in the Ironbound and East Ward. Mice and rats move along shared walls and basements from one house to the next.
- Older foundations in Forest Hill, Weequahic and Vailsburg, with cracked mortar, settled sills and old utility openings.
- Sewer laterals and floor drains, a common rat route into basements.
- Apartment buildings, where mice travel along pipe chases and electrical runs, and rats find trash rooms and compactor areas.
- Restaurants and food streets, with dumpsters, deliveries and grease that feed rats on the whole block.
- Warehouses and loading docks near Port Newark and the airport, where rodents follow freight and food.
How we get rid of rats and mice
- Inspect inside and out, identify rats or mice, and map where they travel.
- Trap inside. No loose poison in your home, so rodents don’t die inside the walls.
- Bait outside where needed in locked, tamper-resistant stations fixed in place.
- Seal entry points with copper or steel mesh, hardware cloth, sheet metal, mortar and door sweeps.
- Clean up harborage: burrows, debris and clutter along the foundation.
- Follow up until activity stops.
A typical house sees a clear drop in one to two weeks. Multi-unit buildings and commercial sites usually move to a regular monitoring schedule. See rat and mice control for the full method.

Frequently asked questions about rodent control in Newark
How long does it take to get rid of rats?
Most houses see a clear drop within one to two weeks, with the problem resolved in three to four weeks with follow-up visits. If the source is a neighboring lot or a sewer problem, it can take longer.
Do you use poison inside?
No. Inside we use traps. Bait goes only outside, in locked stations that children and pets cannot open.
I rent in an apartment building. Can you help?
Yes. We can work with your landlord or management company, or you can book us yourself for your unit. For a building-wide problem, connected units need to be treated together.
Do you service restaurants and warehouses?
