Mice in Attic Removal Cost in Texas (2026)

Getting mice out of a Texas attic typically costs $200 to $600 for the trapping and removal itself. That almost never solves the problem on its own: mice got in through gaps you have not found, and until those are sealed, new mice replace the ones you remove. A complete job — trapping plus full exclusion, sealing every gap larger than a quarter inch from the foundation to the roof line — runs $500 to $2,000 or more depending on the size of the house and how many entry points the inspection finds.

Attics are prime mouse habitat in Texas because the climate rarely forces them out. House mice breed year-round indoors, and a single pair can produce 60 or more offspring in a year, which is why a light scratching sound in October becomes an established colony by spring. Along the Gulf Coast and in older neighborhoods of Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio, roof rats use the same routes into the attic — overhanging branches, power lines, and gaps where utility lines enter the house.

Quotes vary mainly with how much follow-up the company includes. A proper job involves an inspection, a trapping round, one to three return visits to check traps, and exclusion work with a warranty. Be cautious of one-visit quotes and of any plan built around poison bait in an attic — dead mice inside walls create odor problems that cost more to fix than the original infestation.
