The Dangers of Rodent Infestations
Rats (Rattus norvegicus, Rattus rattus) and house mice (Mus musculus) pose acute risks to properties. Their continuously growing incisors compel them to chew relentlessly through electrical wiring (a leading unseen cause of building electrical short circuits and fires), air conditioning insulation, and plumbing conduits.
Beyond material destruction, rodents contaminate food supplies, kitchen surfaces, and packaging through droppings, urine trails, and parasites.
Signs of Rodent Presence
- Droppings: Small dark pellets (3-12mm) found along walls, behind appliances, and inside false ceilings.
- Chewed Wire Casings: Gnawed plastic shielding on electrical conduits or generator wiring.
- Scratching Sounds: Nocturnal noises inside drywall cavities, floor cavities, or roof rafters.
- Grease Rub Marks: Dark oily smudges left along skirting and wall corners where rodents regularly run.
Our Multi-Layered Control Methodology
01. Exclusion & Gap Sealing
Identifying external pipe penetrations, door sweeps, and weep holes; sealing gaps with steel mesh and mastic sealant.
02. Tamper-Resistant Bait Stations
Heavy-duty locked stations placed along external perimeters; accessible only by rodents, completely safe for children and pets.
03. Clean Indoor Mechanical Trapping
High-capture mechanical snap stations and glue boards placed discreetly inside sensitive food or office areas where poisons are prohibited.
04. Scheduled Replenishment & Audit
Regular inspection logs documenting bait consumption levels, population trend analysis, and station sanitization.
