About My Rat Inspection Service

When I carry out a rat inspection, my goal is to catch the problem early before it grows into costly damage. I personally check entry points, nesting areas, food sources, and hidden spaces where rodents are likely to settle. By spotting activity early, I help you avoid bigger infestations down the line.

Rat Inspection Issues

What Happens If Inspections Are Skipped

If inspections are ignored, rat activity often goes unnoticed until major damage is done. They can chew wires, contaminate food, spread diseases, and weaken structures. What starts as a few droppings or scratching sounds can quickly turn into health hazards and expensive repairs if not dealt with early.

How I Handle Rat Issues

Once I’ve completed an inspection, I put together a clear action plan tailored to your property. That usually means sealing off entry points, using safe removal methods, and setting up prevention strategies to make sure the problem doesn’t return. My aim is to leave you with a home or business that’s secure, safe, and rat-free.

I needed some mice removed from my home. I called Matt at Rodent Round up, he responded quickly, made an appointment , he was timely and evaluated my situation. Matt was very thorough in his inspection and made his recommendations for a plan and upon my approval proceeded to lay mouse traps, covered access holes to keep the mice out within my home and outside. Matt repaired vents on my roof etc. Matt is very skillful in what he does. I will call him the mouse whisperer. Matt is very personable asks the right questions and is a good listener. I recommend his Rodent Roundup!

Rodent Roundup did a fantastic job of handling my issue of rodents in my attic. Matt quickly returned my initial call, listened to my problem and clearly advised me of the services he would provide (trap setting and return visit to check traps) and the cost. Additionally, he provided pictures of his findings and remedial work needed to prevent entry. While having this problem was not pleasant, choosing Rodent Roundup made the fix pleasant.
