Step 1

This the first step towards rat pest control and includes steps that are inclusive of but are not limited to

  • Removing all sources of food from the premises. It includes even trivial things such as birdseed that you are used to keeping for birds and the leftover pet food that usually lies there. the rat pest control measure also includes harvesting the ripe fruit at the right time and cleaning up the yard if the ripe fruit has fallen on the ground.
  • Not storing food in plastic containers that can be gnawed by rodents and also ensuring that it is not stored in garages or sheds which are susceptible to rodent entry.
  •  Ensuring that the pet feces is also cleaned up immediately. This is one of the  favorite food items for the rats
  •  Ensuring that repair work in the house in the form of leaking pipes are addressed and also ensuring that the drains are kept closed tightly at all times.
Step 2

However, you may also try capturing the rodents using traps in areas that you consider to be the nesting area of the rats. You may use baits and trap mats to attract the rat and get it trapped in the sticky mat. However, using poisonous baits for killing rats is not recommended . ifThe rat pest control services, however, are licensed to use it and may use it following the guidelines The rats that are captured have to be put in sealed containers and disposed of properly. The rat pest control service providers do all this and also get the area sanitized and disinfected after their job is done.

Step 3

Eliminating Shelter and Harborage

You may wonder if this step is relevant having trapped the rats and disposed of them in step two. But this is an essential step to prevent reinfestation. This includes steps that include removing trash and debris without letting them to accumulate,  trimming trees, bushes, vines etc at regular intervals and ensure that they are away from the roof. Sealing all possible entry points of rats based on the assessment done by the rat pest control service provider’s inspection report.
