When rats or mice appear in your Sydney property, waiting is not an option. Our team responds urgently across the metropolitan area, tackling rodent activity in roof cavities, wall voids, subfloors, and commercial premises with practical, targeted treatment designed to resolve the problem quickly and reduce the risk of return.
Rodent sightings rarely happen at convenient times. Whether you hear scratching overhead at night, find droppings in kitchen cupboards, or notice gnaw marks around stored goods, early action makes a significant difference. Contact our team and we will work to get someone to you as soon as possible.
Understanding Rodent Issues
Sydney's climate and urban landscape create ideal conditions for rodent activity throughout the year. Roof spaces provide warm nesting areas, wall cavities offer protected travel routes, and commercial food premises attract rodents with available resources. Understanding how rodents operate helps explain why infestations develop and what needs to be addressed to resolve them.
Rodents are most active during evening and early morning hours, which means much of their activity goes unnoticed until populations have built up. Common signs include droppings in cupboards or along skirting boards, gnaw marks on packaging or wooden surfaces, scratching or scuttling noises in roof spaces or walls during quiet hours, and greasy rub marks along frequently travelled routes.
Our Service Process
Every rodent situation is different, but our approach follows a consistent structure designed to identify the full extent of the problem and treat it effectively while minimising disruption to your property.
We begin by talking through what you have observed and then inspect the areas of concern along with likely harbour and entry points. This includes roof cavities, subfloors, wall voids, and external perimeter areas to understand how rodents are accessing and moving through your property.
Based on what we find, we explain the situation clearly and propose a targeted treatment approach. This typically involves a combination of bait stations, trapping, and entry point sealing recommendations, with priorities based on where the most activity is concentrated.
We apply treatment carefully, placing bait in secure stations at rodent activity points and setting traps where appropriate. All placements consider the safety of children, pets, and other non-target animals, and we use tamper-resistant stations wherever possible.
Rodent control often requires follow-up visits to monitor bait uptake and adjust the approach as needed. We also provide practical advice on sealing entry points, removing attractants, and maintaining your property to reduce the chance of re-infestation.
Rodent control is not a one-size-fits-all situation. Different properties have different challenges, and the approach needs to reflect that.
We do not simply place bait around the perimeter and hope for the best. Our team identifies the specific routes rodents are using, the harbour areas where they are nesting, and the entry points they are exploiting. Treatment is then focused where it will actually have an impact.
Rodent control is rarely resolved in a single visit. We build monitoring into our service so that bait uptake can be tracked, activity patterns can be assessed, and the treatment approach can be adjusted over time as the situation changes.
Treatment alone is rarely the complete solution. We provide clear, actionable advice on physical changes you can make to your property, such as sealing gaps, trimming vegetation away from the building, managing waste storage, and addressing food attractants.
Rodents are skilled at staying out of sight, but they leave evidence of their activity. Being aware of these signs can help you catch an infestation early, when it is easier and faster to resolve.
Our rodent control service is designed to address the full scope of the problem while keeping you informed throughout the process.
Rodent populations grow quickly, and the longer an infestation is left unaddressed, the more established it becomes. Acting promptly protects your property and reduces the scale of the problem you are facing.
A small rodent problem is considerably faster and less disruptive to resolve than an established infestation. Early intervention typically requires fewer visits and less intensive treatment, getting your property back to normal more quickly.
Rodents cause damage through gnawing, nesting, and fouling. Addressing activity early limits the extent of that damage, protecting structural elements, stored belongings, and in commercial settings, your stock and reputation.
Rodents carry organisms that can contaminate surfaces, food, and the environment around their activity areas. Reducing rodent numbers promptly limits the duration of exposure to these contaminants in your home or business.

Here is what some of our customers have said about our rodent control service across Sydney.
Hearing scratching in the roof at night was unsettling. The team arrived promptly, identified where the rats were getting in, and set up the bait stations the same day. Within a week the activity had dropped significantly. Glad I called when I did.
We run a small restaurant and noticed droppings in the storage area early one morning. Called the team and they attended before we opened for the day. They sorted the immediate problem and gave us practical steps to reduce the risk going forward. Professional and efficient.
We had mice in the garage and suspected they were getting in through gaps around the roller door. The technician checked the whole perimeter, placed bait in the right spots, and sealed up a few obvious gaps for us. Problem sorted within a couple of weeks.
We appreciated the practical recommendations and the tidy finish after the visit.
The response was prompt and the treatment plan was easy to understand.
Professional service with helpful guidance on preventing repeat issues.
We treat urgent rodent calls as a priority. When you contact us, we will discuss your situation and work to arrange attendance as soon as possible. Same-day service is often available for calls received early in the day across the Sydney metropolitan area.
Try to note where you hear the activity most clearly and look for any obvious external entry points like gaps in the eaves or broken roof tiles. Avoid entering the roof space yourself if you are not comfortable doing so. Contact us and we will inspect and treat the affected areas safely.
Baiting typically starts reducing rodent activity within a few days to a week, depending on the size of the population and access to the bait. For larger infestations or where harbourage is widespread, we usually schedule follow-up visits to monitor progress and adjust the treatment approach.
We use tamper-resistant bait stations in all locations where there is any potential for access by children or non-target animals. These stations are designed to be opened only by someone using a key or specific tool, keeping the bait contained and secure while still accessible to rodents.
In most residential situations, there is no need to vacate the property. We place bait in secure stations and traps in specific locations, which pose minimal risk once properly installed. For commercial premises, we can often schedule treatment outside of operating hours to avoid disruption.
Rodents can return if entry points are not sealed and attractants remain available. That is why our service includes advice on sealing gaps, managing food storage, reducing outdoor harbourage, and maintaining the property to make it less appealing to returning rodents.
If you are dealing with rats or mice in your Sydney property, the situation will not improve without action. Our team is ready to respond and help you get the problem under control. Call us now to arrange attendance.
