Rodent control covers both rats and mice, and the first step is working out which one you have, since they behave differently once inside a Bulimba home. Homes with a mix of raised timber construction and newer additions, common across Bulimba, can have both problems at once if gaps have opened up in more than one place. Rats tend to move through the roof cavity and subfloor, running the same path most nights, while mice stay closer to a food source such as a pantry or a cupboard near the stove.
The crew we book for rodent control in Bulimba checks the outside of the house first, looking at the roofline, vents, pipe penetrations, and the garage, before moving inside to the roof space, subfloor, and kitchen area. Droppings, gnaw marks, and a greasy smear along a skirting board all help the crew work out which rodent is active and where it is moving.
Traps and bait are placed to match what has been found, with bigger stations for rats in the roof or subfloor and smaller placements near kitchen skirting for mice. Once activity settles, the crew talks you through any gap worth sealing, so a new rodent does not move into the same spot once the current one is gone.
