Scratching in the ceiling at night is a very common reason people in Redlands call us. Rats and mice move into roof spaces and wall cavities as the weather cools, and they chew wiring, insulation and stored boxes. Rats also nest under decks and in garden sheds. We give you upfront pricing on the phone and book a local crew to deal with them.
The crew starts by working out where the rodents are getting in and where they are travelling. They check the roof space for droppings and runways, look along fence lines and under the house, and inspect gaps around pipes, gable ends and roof sheets. They also look at the yard for burrows under sheds and along retaining walls. Lockable bait stations go into the roof and around the yard, placed away from children and pets.

- Tips on storing pet food and managing compost
In Redlands, rodents are drawn to fruit trees, chook pens, compost bins and pet food left outside. Trimming branches that touch the roof and sealing gaps makes it harder for them to get back in. Baits take a few days to work, and you may hear less noise over the next week or two. The crew can come back to check stations if you book a second visit.
