The automated vacuum-based pest control system features a clear tube into which a sensing means and baiting means are located sequentially along the length of the tube. The tube attaches to the hose of an existing vacuum cleaner, and upon turning on said vacuum cleaner shall suck in and trap a pest allured via the bating means. The vacuum system includes a waste bin, which can be accessed to remove the trapped pest regardless of whether the pest is exterminated or relocated. The sensing means includes a plug that plugs into a standard wall outlet and is wired engaged to a switch that turns on or off the vacuum cleaner upon detection of a pest via the sensing means.
