Scratching in the roof at night, droppings in a pantry or a gnawed corner of a garden bed are usually the first signs of rats or mice around a New Farm property. Rodents move quickly once they find a way in, so the crew we book starts by working out how they are getting into the roof, subfloor or walls before looking at bait or trap placement, rather than putting bait down without checking the entry point first.
Older homes in New Farm with roof cavities, subfloors and gaps around eaves give rodents plenty of ways inside, while units and townhouses tend to see activity around bin areas, garden beds and shared walls. The crew checks the roof space, subfloor access, external walls and garden for entry points and droppings, then places bait or traps in spots away from where children and pets can reach, explaining exactly where they have been left before they leave.
Once an entry point is found and sealed off as far as the property allows, the crew focuses bait and trap placement close to where droppings or gnawing have actually been seen, rather than scattering bait around the whole property. A short check-back conversation over the phone a week or two later helps confirm whether activity has settled down or another visit is worth booking.
