Rats
Roof rat exclusion, citrus tree protection, and attic insulation.
- Phoenix has a major “Roof Rat” problem. They love our citrus trees and use power lines like “superhighways” to get from yard to yard.
- Fun Fact: Rats’ teeth never stop growing! They have to gnaw on things (like your attic’s electrical wires) to file them down.
- Professional Treatment FAQs:
- Why are they in my attic? Roof rats are “arboreal,” meaning they prefer high places like attics and palm trees over the ground.
- Is professional baiting safe for my dog? Yes. Pros use “tamper-resistant” bait stations that are locked and bolted down so pets and kids cannot access the interior.
- How do I keep rats out for good? A professional “exclusion” service is the only way—sealing every hole larger than a nickel with rat-proof materials.
