Rats leave larger droppings, around 10-20 mm, and often have greasier rub marks due to their oily fur. Mice droppings are smaller, about 3-6 mm, and you may see small, shredded nesting material. Both can be active at night, but rats tend to be more cautious.
Baits are placed in tamper-resistant stations or in areas inaccessible to children and pets. 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney uses products with the lowest possible toxicity while remaining effective. You will be advised on any precautions to take.
Rodents typically consume bait within a few days. You may see a reduction in activity within a week, but it can take up to two weeks for the full effect, depending on the size of the infestation and the species.
Clear clutter from areas where you have seen rodent activity, especially along walls and in storage areas. Ensure food is stored in sealed containers and remove pet food and water bowls from the floor.
Sealing entry points and following sanitation advice significantly reduces the chance of reinfestation. 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney includes a follow-up inspection to confirm the treatment’s success and address any new activity.
