Rat & Mouse Control in Pune & PCMC

Signs you are dealing with this

• Droppings along skirting, behind appliances, inside storage racks or in the loft
• Gnaw marks on packaging, wiring, plastic pipes or wooden edges
• Scratching or scurrying noises in the false ceiling, duct or cavity wall at night
• A greasy dark smear along a regularly used wall or pipe run
• Shredded paper, cloth or insulation collected in a corner as nesting material

Rodent work is less about what gets applied and more about understanding the route. Rats and mice follow fixed runs along walls, pipe lines and racking. Control means finding those runs, putting the right thing in the right place, and then closing the way in.

Baiting and trapping

Bait is placed in tamper-resistant stations positioned on the active runs, away from where children, pets or staff can reach them. In kitchens, food premises and clinics we lean towards trapping instead, because a rodent dying inside a wall cavity in a food area creates a worse problem than the one you started with. Which method we use depends on the premises, and we will tell you which one applies and why.

Proofing — the part that actually ends it

Mice get through a gap the width of a pen; young rats through a gap about the size of a two-rupee coin. If the entry points stay open, you are committing to baiting forever. We identify the gaps we can see — around pipe and cable entries, under doors, broken drain covers, ventilation grilles, gaps behind fitted units — and tell you which ones need sealing. Some of that is basic maintenance your own team can do.

Warehouses, godowns and shops

Commercial rodent work is usually an ongoing programme rather than a one-off visit, with stations mapped and checked on a schedule. For food businesses that also gives you a record to show during an audit. Tell us the size of the premises and what is stored when you enquire.

Preparing for the visit

• Tell us where you have heard or seen activity — it narrows the search considerably.
• Clear access to the back of racks, under equipment and along skirting lines.
• Store food and stock in sealed containers and off the floor wherever possible.
• Keep children and pets away from bait stations, and tell us in advance if you have pets.
• Report any dead rodent smell afterwards so we can locate and remove it.
