Why You Need Professional Rodent Control in Melbourne
Rodents aren’t just a nuisance — they’re a serious threat to your health, safety, and home. Rats and mice can:
-
Contaminate food with bacteria such as salmonella and E. coli.
-
Spread dangerous diseases like leptospirosis and hantavirus.
-
Damage insulation, wiring, and wooden structures.
-
Trigger allergies and asthma through droppings and fur.
-
Cause electrical fires by chewing through cables.
Melbourne’s climate and urban density make it the perfect environment for rodents to thrive. Without professional intervention, infestations can grow quickly. That’s why Aptive Pest Control offers targeted, long-term solutions designed to eliminate current infestations and prevent future ones.
Our Proven Rodent Control Process
1. Detailed Inspection
Our licensed technicians start by inspecting your property inside and out. We identify entry points, nesting areas, droppings, tracks, and food sources to understand the full scope of the problem.
2. Customised Treatment Plan
Based on our findings, we develop a tailored rodent control strategy that may include baiting, trapping, or exclusion. We use safe, humane, and environmentally responsible products to ensure the health of your family and pets.
3. Rodent Removal and Proofing
Once treatment begins, we work quickly to eliminate all rodents from your property. We then seal off potential entry points to prevent future infestations.
4. Ongoing Monitoring and Prevention
Our service doesn’t stop at removal. Aptive offers ongoing maintenance programs to ensure your property remains rodent-free year-round.
Types of Rodents We Control
???? Rats
Rats are larger and more destructive than mice. They can gnaw through walls, pipes, and even concrete. Our team is trained to identify species like the Norway rat and roof rat, applying precise treatments for maximum effectiveness.
???? Mice
Mice are smaller but reproduce faster. They can enter through tiny gaps and cause extensive contamination. We use safe and effective traps and baits designed specifically for mice control.
???? Roof Rats
Common in Melbourne’s suburbs, roof rats nest in ceilings and attics. Aptive’s rodent experts locate nesting areas and remove them completely while securing potential re-entry points.
