Rat control in Montreal
Rat control for basements, yards, garages and businesses, with sealing and follow-up.
In Montreal, the most common rat is the Norway rat, also called the brown rat. It digs burrows near foundations, lives in sewers and gets into buildings through drains, cracks and gaps around pipes.
A rat in a basement or yard calls for a quick response: it gnaws materials, contaminates food and breeds fast. We handle houses, apartment buildings and businesses, with a clear plan and follow-up.
Signs to watch for
Droppings larger than mouse droppings, often near walls or garbage
Burrows dug along the foundation, under a shed or a porch
Heavy noises in walls, ceilings or the basement
Teeth marks on wood, plastic or pipes
Torn garbage bags in the yard or the lane
Greasy rub marks on basement walls
Our method
Inspection
We look for burrows, runways, food sources and entry points, inside and outside.
Control
Locked bait stations and professional traps, placed along rat pathways and away from children and pets.
Sealing
We block the entry points found: cracks, gaps around pipes, door bottoms, basement windows.
Follow-up
Follow-up visits to check the stations and confirm activity has stopped.
Guarantee and safety
6-month guarantee. If activity returns during the guarantee period, we come back at no extra cost. A follow-up visit is included. The exact terms are written on your quote.
