Inspection

Inspection is one of the most important tasks that a technician has to do and is included in the price of the rat removal service. Our pest control technicians will spend their time identifying and pinpointing areas to understand the rat movement from the exterior to the interior and vice-versa. Once an understanding is reached on how we can better control the population, the technician will propose solutions for the extermination on the same day. Sealing solutions will also be considered and conveyed to the property owner.

Extermination

Based on the results of the inspection, the technician will place tamper-proof bait stations on the outside of the property. These bait stations contain rodenticides in bait form which children and pets cannot reach. These bait stations are also fully secured and locked so no one else can access them other than a technician with a key. These tamper-proof bait stations will be placed at locations where they cannot be easily found. Rodenticides are multi-feed which means that in case a non-target species eats from it, they will not die since it is not that potent.

On the inside of the property, we make use of mechanical snap traps. These traps deliver a lethal blow to the rat which can be removed thereafter. The extermination process can take a few weeks to months depending on the scope and the severity of the infestation. Factors like access to food and water, and how accessible the interior is can change the duration of the extermination process. Sealing up entry points can help speed things up, but it is important it is left to experienced professionals. The last thing you want to do is seal up rats on the interior of your home or business.

Exclusion

Rat exclusion or sealing up rat entry points should be left to the professionals. You want to avoid sealing up a rat population on the interior at all costs. We seal up rat entry points using steel, aluminum flashing, fine steel mesh, concrete mortar and a variety of other materials so rats cannot enter but we always use a rat one-way door to allow any remaining rats to exit. Rats, contrary to mice, will enter and exit their nest inside a structure and we want to take advantage of this tendency and speed the extermination process up. Once out, the rats will not be able to get back in. All our rodent exclusion work comes with a 2-year warranty. If rats breach our work, we return at no additional cost.

What You Need to Know About Rats

rat infestation peterborough 1

Rats are outdoor rodents who are active during the night. Rats often stay in burrows that can house several rats. Rats are capable to enter the interior in several ways by exploiting vulnerable points on the exterior of the property. They can also enter the basement floors through old utility pipes that lead directly to the home and dig a way out. This is typical of older homes located in historic parts of the city. Rats have incredible sharp incisors that can cut through soft metals, plywood, flashing, shingles, and roof vents. Rats are incredibly well adapted to stay away from human presence and will often stay in secluded areas of the house such as crawl spaces. Rats often occupy crawl spaces where they will dig burrows to go from one part of the house to the other. This can be heard by faint chewing or gnawing, or pitter-patter from behind walls Rats will also defecate and urinate anywhere leading to contamination of the space. Rats are sexually active at just a few weeks old and can worsen the severity of the infestation in a short time. To contain the situation, the professional intervention will be needed.

Rat Signs

signs of rat infestation

Rats will try everything in their power to get inside. They can gnaw on woods, metals, and plastics to force their way in. If you see a live rat, that is a definitive sign of a rat infestation and a rat break-in. Rats will enter properties for two basic needs: Food and shelter.

Rat feces are another sign of a rat infestation since they can be spread at random on the exterior as well as on the exterior of the property. They can be recognized by their dark colour and pointed edges on both signs of the dropping.

Rats have an incredibly bad habit of gnawing at everything they find. This is not by choice but in their nature as with any other rodent. Rats have teeth that grow very fast. To function, rats need to keep their teeth length in check. Rats will also gnaw on cabinets, doors, and other types of furniture.

Rats are outdoor rodents and will stay in burrows. They can be recognized as holes in the ground. This is where multiple rats can live and breed. The burrows are often close to the property and can be a bridge to the interior of the property. Professionals can get rid of these rats and seal the rat burrow to avoid an interior infestation.

Rat Hiding Places

Rats hide to stay away from people, and they do this very well. Licensed professionals will need to be called in would you want to find them. They hide and live in the most secluded areas of the property such as in crawl spaces, basements, garages, wall voids and even attics.
