Rodent control covers both rats and mice, and while the two behave a little differently, the booking process is the same. Tell us what you have noticed in your Manly home, whether it is scratching in the ceiling, droppings in a cupboard or chewed packaging in the pantry, and we will pass the details on to a local crew who can get out to have a look.
Mice tend to nest closer to a food source, so kitchens, pantries and garages are common spots, while rats are more likely to be found in the roof or subfloor. The crew will check both areas regardless, since a property can have activity in more than one place at once, especially once the weather turns and rodents look for shelter indoors.
Once the inspection is done, the crew will set out bait and traps suited to what they find and talk you through where the entry points are. Closing those gaps matters as much as dealing with the rodents already inside, otherwise new activity can turn up again down the track in the same spot. Older homes with gaps around stumps or roof vents tend to need a bit more attention here than a newer, tightly built house.
Because rodent control covers more than one pest, the crew will also ask about pets and children in the house before deciding between bait stations and traps, and will keep you in the loop on which approach they have gone with and why. A property near reserve land or a canal can see rodents move back in from next door over time, so a check-back visit is often built into the plan.
