Confirm the pattern of activity
We assess where rodents are active by reviewing signs such as droppings, gnawing, and rub marks, then focus on the most likely travel routes.
When rats or mice get inside, you can end up with gnawing damage, droppings, and foul smells in hidden areas. 24 Hour Pest Control Sydney handles rodent inspections and targeted control steps across Carlton, NSW, to help stop the problem from spreading.
Rodents reuse the same routes and entry points once they find them. The fix is not only dealing with activity you can see, it is also removing the conditions that let them return.
