Our approach
How we handle it
Inspect
We check roof spaces, subfloors, sheds and the exterior to find activity and entry points.

We work out a baiting or trapping approach that suits your property, including kids and pets.
Treat
We place and secure treatment where rodents are active.
Proof
We point out gaps and entry points to seal and can advise on proofing.
Prevention
Keep them from coming back
- Store pet food, bird seed and grain in sealed containers.
- Trim trees and vines away from the roofline.
- Keep sheds, garages and garden areas clear of clutter.
- Seal gaps around pipes, vents and eaves.
Questions
I have kids and pets. Is rodent control safe?
Tell us when you book. We'll plan placement and methods with children and pets in mind and explain any precautions.
Why are rats in my roof in winter?
Rodents look for warm, sheltered places as the weather cools, so roof activity often increases in autumn and winter.
Can you help stop them getting back in?
Yes. We identify entry points and advise on sealing them, which is key to long-term control.
