Kitchen Cabinets

Basements
Rodents often hide here, leaving nests, droppings, or scratch marks.
Attics and Crawl Spaces
Look for nests made of shredded materials and signs of chewing on insulation.
Under Sinks
Rodents are drawn to water sources, leaving droppings and damaged items here.
Near Trash Cans
Rodents often scavenge around trash, leaving droppings and gnaw marks.
Why Do Rodent Invade the Home?
Rodents enter homes to find food, water, and warmth, especially in colder months. They can cause significant damage by chewing on wires, insulation, and even structural elements, as well as carry diseases like Salmonella and Hantavirus.

- Seal gaps and cracks in walls and foundations.
- Clean up crumbs and spills immediately.

Rodent - Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take for rodents to go away after pest control?
Rodents typically begin to disappear within a few days after professional pest control treatment. The exact time taken can vary based on the intensity of the infestation and the treatment methods used.
For smaller infestations, you might notice a significant reduction in rodent activity within 48 hours. However, larger infestations might require multiple treatments and follow-up visits to ensure complete eradication. It’s important to stay patient and follow the exterminator’s advice for best results.
How do I get rid of rodents permanently?
Permanent rodent removal requires a combination of professional extermination and preventative measures. Start by hiring a professional pest control service to address the immediate infestation. They use a variety of methods, such as traps, baits, and possibly rodenticides, to eliminate the rodents.
Once the initial infestation is under control, take steps to seal all potential entry points around your home, such as cracks in walls, doors frames, and windows. Maintain cleanliness by storing food in sealed containers and regularly disposing of garbage. Regular pest control inspection are essential to keep your home rodent-free in the long term.
Is rodent control safe for pets and children?
Yes, professional rodent control services use treatments that are safe for pets and children. Exterminators are trained to use targeted and controlled methods to minimise risks. For instance, they may use bait stations that are designed to be inaccessible to pets and children or non-toxic traps that pose no harm.
Additionally, they will provide you with safety guidelines to follow after treatment, such as keeping pets and children away from treated areas for a specific period. Always communicate any concerns with your exterminator to ensure the safety of your family and pets.
What kills rodents instantly?
Instant rodent-killing methods include snap traps and electronic traps. Snap traps are uniquely designed to kill rodents quickly and humanely by delivering a strong blow to their head or neck. Electronic traps use a high-voltage shock to instantly kill rodents when they enter the trap.
Both methods are effective but should be used carefully to ensure safety and effectiveness. It’s recommended to have these traps placed and managed by professionals, as they know the best locations and practices to maximize their efficiency while minimizing risks to other animals and humans.
What do rodents hate the most?
Rodents dislike strong scents such as peppermint, ammonia, and mothballs. These scents can irritate their sensitive noses and make the environment unpleasant for them. However, relying solely on these scents is not an effective method for rodent control.
While they may temporarily deter rodents, they do not address the main cause of the infestation. Combining these deterrents with professional pest control and preventative measures will provide a more comprehensive solution to rodent problems.
How much time will it take for rodent pest control service?
A typical rodent pest control service can take up to 3 hours, depending on the intensity of the infestation and the area to be treated. During this time, exterminators will inspect your home, set traps or bait stations, and seal entry points.
They may also provide you with recommendations for preventing future infestations. In cases of severe infestations, follow-up visits may be necessary to ensure complete eradication. The exterminator will schedule these visits based on the progress observed during the initial treatment.
