Miami-Dade County, Miami Rat Control Situation:
I have rats and more of them now. I paid an animal control company alot of money, called them back multiple times and still had problems so i finally gave up even though they had a "lifetime garantee". I am going to look carefully at who i get help from as thousands of dollars on my budget is sorely missed. So Why do all these other places that you recommend have the same pictures and ads/ how are you all connected? Valerie
I recommend companies that I have spoken to personally. What company did you hire? If they gave you a guarantee, they should honor it.
Hello, Approx 5 years ago, I moved into a 20+ yr old, 3 level condo with finished basement. Shortly after moving in, I came home to find a dead mole lying in living room (main level). I also used to own a cat, whom I'm sure spent the day playing with the mole before it met its maker. That was the one & only rodent I have seen since living here - however - every winter, and in the same location of my basement wall, I hear scratching & gnawing. It comes & goes. I'm guessing it is probably a mole. The annoying sound is coming from near the baseboard and I'm on a concrete slab. I have sheetrock walls. Will it eventually dig its way through my wall? I reluctantly purchased a RID-X plug-in and that's not working. Any suggestions? Valerie
I'm not sure what animal is causing that scratching. Rats and mice tend to try to break in during cold weather.
Miami Rat Control Tip of The Week
What Surfaces Are Rats Able To Climb?
Discovering rodents on your rooftop or in your attic may surprise you. These are places that are, to some degree, difficult to reach and require some uncommon climbing capacity. For rodents, however, that isn't that difficult to manage. Rats are astonishing climbers. They can climb anything. If there is something to hold on to, they can climb it. To get to food and water and their home, they will climb anything. From trees to blocks to stone, they will climb it. This implies they can get into pretty much anything. It doesn't make a difference if it is an opening at base level or in the rooftop, they can get to it.
Extraordinary Climbers
Most rodents are good climbers. Squirrels, mice, rats, and other rodents can climb pretty much anything. It is of nothing unexpected to individuals who see them frequently; however, the degree of their climbing capacity despite everything is surprising to a few. Climbing trees, plants, and anything with a good foothold is no problem. They can snatch on and climb any of that to get to where they need to go. A lot of people expect this as they see it often in rodents like squirrels.
What It Means For You
It is impressive, however, it tends to be a real torment for homeowners. Since rodents are astounding climbers, they can get into any place. If there is an opening anyplace in your home, rodents can arrive at it. They get into these openings and make their homes in a matter of moments, causing chaos. This is why extra care is required when it comes to sealing any potential holes. Since rodents can fit through even tiny spaces, you want to limit their options.
