Why Choose Pest Protection Plus for Rat Control

Rat control requires more than basic trapping. Effective elimination depends on identifying nesting sites and sealing structural vulnerabilities.

Clients choose Pest Protection Plus because we provide:

We focus on eliminating rats completely and preventing re-entry.

Professional Rat Control Services

Rats often enter properties through foundation cracks, sewer lines, roof openings, or gaps around utility lines. Once inside, they may nest in basements, attics, walls, and crawl spaces.

Common signs of a rat infestation include:

Larger droppings compared to mice

Loud scratching or gnawing sounds

Chewed wood, plastic, or wiring

Grease marks along walls

Burrows near foundations

  • Food and water sources

This ensures a complete treatment plan.

STEP 03

No hidden fees

STEP 04

Prevention and Guarantee

After removal, we seal accessible entry points and reinforce vulnerable areas. Our service is backed by a guarantee against re-entry through repaired sections.

If rat activity continues within the covered period, we return at no extra cost.

Why DIY Rat Control Often Fails

Many homeowners attempt to manage rats with store-bought traps or poison. These approaches rarely fully eliminate the infestation.

DIY rat control often fails because:

Entry points remain open

Nesting areas are not located

Poison may cause rats to die inside the walls

Incomplete trapping allows reproduction

Professional rat control addresses both elimination and prevention.

“The Rodents Disappear” (Recurring Exterior Pressure)

“Great service – fast, and most of all: it works! PPP have always done a great job helping us get rid of the pests both inside and outside. The rodents are inevitable… so we do need this service call perhaps every 3 years. But they do disappear!”
