Rats and mice cause more worry than most pests because you often hear them before you see them. In Brisbane, roof rats climb along fences, vines, trees and power lines and slip in under roof sheets or through gaps in the eaves. Mice come in at ground level through gaps around pipes, doors and weep holes. Both leave droppings, chew packets and wiring, and nest in insulation.
When you call, tell us what you are hearing, where you have found droppings and whether you have pets. We give you upfront pricing and book a nearby independent crew. The crew we book inspects the roof space, kitchen and subfloor to find runs, nests and entry points before placing any bait.
- A check of the roof space, wall voids and subfloor
- Lockable bait stations set along runs, out of reach of pets and kids
- Traps in kitchens and spots where bait does not suit
- A list of entry points worth sealing
- Advice on food storage, compost and fallen fruit
Rodent activity climbs from late autumn through winter, when cooler nights push rats and mice indoors. Homes near creeks, parks, railway lines and shopping strips often see more of it. The crew will explain how long the bait usually takes to work, and a return visit can be booked to check the stations.
While the treatment works, keep food in sealed containers, move pet food inside at night and pick up fallen fruit. Trimming branches that touch the roof makes it harder for rats to get back in. If you hear new scratching after a few weeks, call us and we can talk through the next step. To book rodent control in Brisbane, call 07 3543 7767 and we will arrange a nearby crew.
