Mobile County, Mobile Rat Control Situation:
Hi, I recently went to the bathroom at night and a huge rat ran into the wall heater.how can I can trap these rats because I know where there's one there's more. The wall Heater is the living room so I can't set traps there. Also I have yet to find any droppings or ruined food. Please help me before this rat problem gets bigger. I have a really small house that used to be a garage more than 20 years ago. Thanks in advance. Laura F
Do you live in Mobile AL? If so, we can help you. The key is to find out how they are getting inside the building, from the outside. Are you available for an appointment tomorrow?
Mouse in my basement. He climbs right up to a high table and comes close to me and my dog...and the cat hasn't caught it. I am quite bad with this so ran away and put towels at the basement door so he may not get upstairs and also wooden pictures to deter him..not sure any will help. If I make enough noise will he leave wherever he came from? Please help, Jaime
Noise will not make it leave.
I read your article and I had someone pound my gable ends in because of some gaps, but I am still getting mice in my attic. I use snap traps. I don't know where they are getting in. Should I seal with spray foam maybe at the corners of cable ends? Kinda at a lost right now. Thanks Jacque
Hello, we had mice in the house. The cats caught a few but I heard one in my bedroom ceiling. I can't see killing it so I purchased a humane trap. Well I caught one last night. The problem is where the heck to take it to set it free? I want to make sure it's safe after going to the trouble of not killing it. What kind of environment would be best, other than my home full of snacks for it? I live in Mobile, AL. Thank you, I would appreciate some advice. I got your email from your website. Than you again, Ken
Mobile Rat Control Tip of The Week
Different Rat Traps That Are Humane
A rat infestation is a big problem for almost every household. If you are having the same issues, you need to understand the fact that you are not alone in this problem. Although, you need to take quick removal actions because the rats won't leave unless you make them.
To help you achieve this, we will be sharing different rat traps that are humane that you can use to remove rats from your home. With the following traps, you won't have to bother about rats causing a nuisance in your home anymore.
Glue Boards
Glue traps are perfect for rats nesting in an enclosed area. These traps are designed with plastic and a semi-solid liquid that is believed to glue rats to its surface when they try to walk on it. To use a glue board, all you need to do is place it along the routes of the rat. The trap will intercept the rat's path and it will be trapped in the process.
The only issue with the use of this trap is that you will have to keep inspecting it from time to time in order to dispatch the rat from the board when it finally is trapped.
Fenn Traps
Fenn traps are designed for use in tunnels. The design of this trap makes it possible for it to trap rats only and prevent interaction with other non-target species. It's a special mechanism that makes it possible to kill the rat humanely by constricting and suffocating it.
Snap Traps
Snap traps are one of the most commonly used rat traps and are most suitable if you want to trap rats in your attic and other places in your home with limited access. It also kills rats instantly and is very effective in removing rats.
