Rodents Control
Rodents are creating havoc worldwide. They are small to medium-sized mammals, including rats and mice, that can cause serious problems for both homes and businesses. Rodents are typically found in attics, basements, kitchens, and even in walls or under furniture. Despite their size, rodents can cause significant damage by chewing on electrical wires, wood, and food supplies. They also carry diseases that can pose health risks to humans. Their presence can lead to a lot of stress and sleepless nights, especially when they infest living spaces. Rodents are incredibly irritating because they are difficult to detect, and once established, they are even harder to eliminate. They can multiply quickly, turning a small problem into a full-blown infestation. Having a rodent-free home is essential for your comfort, safety, and health. A rodent infestation can lead to damaged property, contaminated food, and the spread of diseases, making it important to address the issue as soon as it is noticed.
Understanding Rodents
Rodents like rats and mice are small mammals known for their sharp teeth, which they use to chew through almost anything, including walls, wires, and furniture. They are typically active at night and can go unnoticed for long periods due to their excellent hiding abilities. Rodents are known for spreading diseases, contaminating food, and causing structural damage to buildings. Their early detection and removal are crucial to preventing a serious infestation, which can result in costly repairs and health risks.
How Do Rodents Enter Homes?
- Open Doors and Windows: They enter through openings left unattended, especially at night.
- Cracks and Holes: Rodents can squeeze through small gaps in walls, floors, and foundations.
- Hitchhiking: They can be brought into homes through boxes, bags, or other infested items.
- Food Sources: Rodents are attracted to places with easy access to food, like kitchens or pantries.
- Climbing: Rats are excellent climbers and can enter homes through vents or openings in the roof.
Signs of Rodent Infestation:
- Droppings around food, under sinks, or in drawers.
- Chewed electrical wires, wooden furniture, or food packages.
- Scratching noises in walls, attics, or under floors, especially at night.
- Nests made from shredded paper, fabric, or other materials.
- A musky, unpleasant odour in hidden areas of the home.
Tips For Preventing Rodent Infestation:
- Seal all cracks, holes, and gaps in walls, floors, and around doors and windows.
- Store food in airtight containers to avoid attracting rodents.
- Keep your home clean and clutter-free, especially in attics and basements.
- Regularly inspect and maintain areas like the kitchen, where food is stored.
- Use rodent-proof materials when building or renovating.

Thorough Inspection
We start with a complete inspection of your home. Our team examines all areas where rodents may be hiding, including attics, basements, kitchens, and inside walls.

- Sanitization: We clean up rodent droppings, nests, and other contaminants to prevent health risks and eliminate odours.
