Rats in the home or attic? Problems with mice or rodents?
How to trap, kill, and remove these pests. Get rid of rats!

Fort Lauderdale Rat Exterminator services for rats, mice, and rodents.

Rats (usually roof rats) enter homes to have a warm safe home, to nest, and because other rats are there. The attic of homes is perfect protection from predators and nasty weather. Fort Lauderdale prefer to stay in the attic, but will enter the rest of building if the total population gets very high.

Call Wildlife Patrol at 954-383-3365.

Fort Lauderdale rats enter the actual living space of the home by climbing down the walls, and slip into the home's kitchen or bathroom where plumbing pipes exit the drywall. Up in the attic, rats leave feces, urine trails, die naturally or from poison, chew on wires or plumbing, and make scratching noises in the middle of the night. Scurrying and chewing sounds may also be heard from the walls as the rats can climb up and down these hollow spaces which are continuous with the attic. In Fort Lauderdale, most scratching noises in walls or ceilings are made by rats in the attic.

Wildlife Patrol is not the usual pest control or rat exterminators company. Our Fort Lauderdale rat control service does NOT use poison or bait stations to kill rats. We relie instead on solving the Fort Lauderdale rat problem structurally to keep every rat, mouse, and rodent out permanently.

Rodents cannot enter a building anywhere they want. There are only a few types of areas that are vulnerable for rats and mice to get into a home. If these areas are addressed correctly, then the home can be permanently protected. Our rat exterminators seal buildings to stop them from coming in and trap for rodents that are sealed in during the repairs.

The rat trapping that we do is extensive to ensure every last animal is captured and removal is complete. Most other Fort Lauderdale pest control companies will only set 2 to 4 rat traps and only set the rat traps right around the attic hatch. On a typical 2000 sq foot home, our Fort Lauderdale exterminators will use 10-15 traps and will crawl the attic to put the traps right in the area where the customer hears them.

Roof Rat Problems

Fort Lauderdale rats anywhere in the home is enough for most people to take action. The mice androdents make noise in the middle of night, chew food containers in the kitchen, leave droppings all over, and dead rats make horrible odor problems that can affect a home infested with rats for week before the dead rat smell completely goes away.

Beyond the nuisance problems of rats making noise by scratching in the ceiling, a Fort Lauderdale rat or mouse problem are serious threats to the household.

1). Rats and mice carry many of diseases. Rats feces in the attic can contaminate the air ducts and circulate down in to the home proper which exasperates people with asthma.

2). Rats and other rodents chew and gnaw on everything - including sensitive structures such as plumbing pipes, electrical wires, and air ducts. Damage to these attic structures is very difficult and expensive to repair, especiallly in Fort Lauderdale homes where attics are very tight to access the problem.

3). Rats in the attic in Fort Lauderdale are a serious fire hazard because of their ability to fray wires. Rats are blamed in many cases where the cause of fire is unknown.

Rat control in Ft Lauderdale is our pest control company's specialty. No other pest control service, exterminator, roofing company, or general contractors can get rid of the rats from roof, lawn, attic, or crawlspace like we at Wildlife Patrol can do. Fort Lauderdale rat control work, if performed less than perfectly, can go wrong in a number of ways. Rats take advantage of any mistake to reenter and re-infest the home.
