Most local rodent companies will most likely do some exclusion work, meaning seal up openings to your home, then put you on a maintenance program by way of setting up bait stations around the perimeter of the home and traps inside the home. Below we’ll explain why this is NOT an effective rodent control solution for your home, especially if you’re having scratching sounds inside your walls and attic.

Now, this traditional rodent control method may work, but just be aware that if you’re still hearing and seeing rat activity in your home after 3 weeks, then you still have a rodent control issue which rodent control companies aren’t performing in their exclusion.

Step 1 -Perform an in-depth inspection of the home. Tips on a great rodent control inspection list to start with:

Make sure your rodent technician crawls your home’s attic, crawl space in depth. We are seeing 98 percent of inspections not doing a thorough inspection. They have to crawl every square inch of accessible space inside your home. This in-depth inspection will provide so many clues to solve your rodent problem.

Step 2 – You must pinpoint the exact entry point of how rodents are getting in. Most rodent control companies are sealing up holes around the home’s structure, which is important for rodent preventative measures, but it’s useless if the rodent technician is not able to pinpoint the exact entry point. When you identify the entry point, It will be crystal clear on how they are getting into your home. If you’re a homeowner reading this, make sure you ask your local rodent control company near you to provide you with this proof.

Step 3 – Once you have identified the rat’s entry points into your home, you now need to provide the best sustainable way to seal up the entry points.

Exclusion Tips:

– Roof exclusion work needs to be fused metal wire coated with flex seal which is a rubber coating to protect the metal from rusting out.

• Pure black expansion foam is the BEST foam that seals up openings. Use a spray bottle to wet the surface you’re going to inject foam into, this pre moisture application will enhance the sealing power of the pure black foam.

Step 4 – Trapping & Bait Stations:

Once you have done all the above, this is when trapping works like Magic. Use the traditional victor wood traps and bait them like this:

Step 5 – Cleaning & Sanitizing

We all know rodents carry diseases and it’s important to clean up and clean up in the right way. If you had to remove your insulation in the attic, we always recommend NEVER put your insulation back for 3 weeks or until you know you no longer have a rodent infestation. We are seeing so many rodent companies rushing to put the brand new insulation back in one day or the next day, then the homeowner is still dealing with rat issues.

When it comes to cleaning, it’s important to use a HEPA vacuum to extract the rat droppings and to sanitize using enzymes, with a product called the urine destroyer that will put an end to rat odors.
