Rats moving through a roof space at night, scratching in the ceiling or leaving droppings in a shed are common calls from Coomera, particularly on properties backing onto bushland, drains or larger blocks with sheds and garden beds. They are good climbers and can get into a roof through surprisingly small gaps around the guttering or eaves.
A rat visit starts with a look at how they are likely getting in and where they are active, whether that is a roof void, subfloor space or a shed. The crew we book will place bait and traps in the right spots and check entry points that may need closing off once activity has settled down, and can point out which gaps around the roofline are worth sealing yourself once the job is finished.
- Roof voids, ceiling cavities and wall spaces.
- Subfloor areas and spaces under decks.
- Sheds, garages and stored firewood or boxes.
- Entry points around the roofline, vents and pipes.
- Yard checks for burrows near fences and garden beds.
Coomera properties near creeks, drains or larger blocks with sheds tend to see more rat activity than tighter units closer to the town centre. Once bait or traps are placed, it usually takes a week or two to see a clear drop in activity, and the crew can talk you through what signs to watch for in the meantime, such as fresh droppings or gnaw marks near the roofline. Keeping woodpiles off the ground and bins closed makes a real difference between visits.
