Rats and mice are common in inner-city suburbs like South Brisbane, where old buildings, cafes, bins and parks sit close together. They get into roofs, wall cavities and kitchen cupboards through surprisingly small gaps, and their gnawing can damage cables, pipes and stored food. A rat in the roof at night can sound much bigger than it is. We book independent crews for rodent removal, with upfront pricing given on the phone before the visit.
The crew first works out what you have and where it is travelling. Rat droppings are dark and about the size of a grain of rice or bigger, while mouse droppings are smaller. Grease marks along beams, chewed packaging and scratching at night all help show the path. The crew then places baits in lockable stations or sets traps in the roof space and other hidden spots.
Sealing is what keeps rodents out after the baiting. Rats can squeeze through gaps far smaller than a possum needs, so the crew closes holes around pipes, cables, vents and roof edges with fine mesh and metal. A second visit may be suggested to check baits and remove traps. Rodent work can be booked on the same visit as possum removal.
