Scratching in the roof at night, gnaw marks on stored boxes or droppings along a skirting board are the usual signs of rodents in a Whittlesea home. The crew we book starts with a check of the roof void and subfloor where they can be reached, since that is where rats and mice tend to nest before they start moving through the rest of the house looking for food.
The visit also covers the outside of the property, looking at gaps under doors, vents without mesh, overhanging branches touching the roofline and any stored firewood, hay or clutter close to the house that gives rodents cover to approach unseen. On rural blocks, sheds, machinery bays and feed storage areas are checked too, since these often draw activity before it ever reaches the house.
- Roof void and subfloor checked where access allows
- Outdoor entry points and harbourage close to the house identified
- Sheds and outbuildings checked on larger rural properties
- Activity level assessed before a price is confirmed
- Same-day or next-day where the run allows
Older Whittlesea homes near the town centre often have roof and subfloor access that newer builds do not, which changes how the crew approaches the visit. On rural blocks, feed and produce storage tends to be the bigger drawcard for activity, so those areas get a proper look alongside the house itself. Either way, tell us what you have heard or seen and we will pass that on to the crew.
