Frequently asked questions
What kind of rats are common in Melrose District and how do they get into my home?
In Melrose District and the wider LA basin, roof rats are far more common than Norway rats. They are excellent climbers and typically enter homes by traveling along fences, palm trees, bougainvillea, and utility lines, often gaining access through attic vents or gaps in roofing, especially prevalent with clay tile roofs.
Is rat removal safe for my family and pets?
Yes, we prioritize safety by using tamper-resistant bait stations and strategically placing traps in areas inaccessible to children and pets. We also provide clear instructions on how to keep your family and pets safe during the treatment process.
How long does it take to get rid of rats?
The duration of rat removal varies depending on the severity of the infestation and the size of your property. While initial trapping can yield results quickly, complete eradication and exclusion work often require several weeks of monitoring and follow-up visits to ensure all activity has ceased.
What can I do to prevent rats from coming back after treatment?
To prevent future infestations, it's crucial to maintain good sanitation practices, store food in sealed containers, and trim vegetation away from your home's exterior. We will also provide specific recommendations for sealing potential entry points, which is a key part of our exclusion service, vital for homes in Melrose District where pest pressure is year-round.
