Our Process

Our Process for Practical Rats Control and Protection

Simple. Thorough. Every Time.

Your technician begins by inspecting your home for signs of rat activity, checking hidden entry points, for example, garages, crawlspaces, and gaps around utility lines.

Next, the issue is treated by placing professional snap traps along interior travel paths and setting up tamper-resistant bait stations around the exterior foundation. Your technician finishes with prevention by sealing minor exterior openings.

Competitive Pricing

Our rates are competitive at $6.75 per linear foot for our baiting system. We then charge $74/mo for ongoing maintenance with $100 off the initial pest service.

Longer-Lasting Products

Our products are designed to keep working long after we leave. No drop-off between visits, just consistent protection month after month.

Product Rotation

Pests can develop resistance to repeated applications of the same active ingredient. We rotate active ingredients between visits so pests can't build resistance. Resistance prevention is built into every plan, not an afterthought.
