Rats or Mice in Your Home? We'll Get Them Out Fast
Rats and mice chew wiring, contaminate food and breed fast inside roofs and wall cavities. Our Sydney team inspects, treats and seals the gaps to keep them out.
The Rodents We Deal With in Sydney Homes and Businesses
Rats and mice behave differently depending on the type, so each one needs the right mix of treatment and proofing. We identify what you are dealing with, treat the active areas, and seal the gaps that let them in.
Norway Rats
Norway rats, also called brown or sewer rats, are large and tend to live low down in subfloors, drains and burrows around the property. We treat their runs and harbourage areas and target the entry points they use to get inside.
Roof Rats
Roof rats, also known as black rats, are agile climbers that nest high up in roof voids, wall cavities and trees. We focus on the roof and upper levels where they shelter, along with the gaps they use to get in.
House Mice
House mice are small, curious and breed quickly, squeezing through tiny gaps into kitchens, cupboards and wall spaces. We treat the active areas and seal the small openings they rely on to keep them out.
Spotting a Rodent Problem Before It Gets Worse
Rodents stay hidden during the day, so the first clue is often something small. Left alone, a couple of rodents can turn into a real problem fast. Here is what we see most, and what we do about it.
Droppings Around the Property
Small, dark, rice-shaped droppings around cupboards, drawers, subfloors or along skirting are one of the clearest signs of rats or mice. The more droppings you find, the larger and more active the problem usually is.
InspectionGnaw Marks and Damage
Chewed wires, gnawed packaging, damaged insulation and scratched timber point to rodents keeping their teeth worn down. Damaged wiring is also a fire risk, so it is worth acting on quickly.
Rodent treatmentScratching or Scurrying Noises
Scratching, scurrying or scampering sounds in the ceiling, walls or roof, especially at night, usually mean rodents are nesting nearby. The noise often gets more noticeable as the numbers grow.
