Scranton Rat Removal and Rodent Control

The best rat removal company in Scranton, PA is Attic Rat, Inc. This is because Attic Rat is not a traditional pest control company or exterminator. They are an animal removal company that specializes in rodent control. Rats and mice are not like insects, but most Scranton pest control companies treat rodents like insects - they use poison. Poison is a stupid and even harmful way to treat a rodent infestation. Poison will never kill all the rats, and the process is never-ending, with never ending invoices. Attic Rat does rat removal the correct way, with PERMANENT results in as little as a week. Once you hire them, you'll never have to see them again. See their year 2021 prices below. This is the process:

Inspection of the entire house, in the attic and top to bottom, including roof
Identification of all rat entry holes, and sealing them shut with steel repairs
Trapping and removal of 100% of the rats inside the home or building
Cleanup of rat feces and odor, and repair of rat damage such as chewed wires

Lackawanna County, Scranton Rat Control Situation:

Hello, I've seen your website and wanted to thank you for supplying such helpful information. Are you located in Wilkes Barre? Is so, do you ever accept jobs in Scranton? Scranton is about 1.5 hours north of Allentown. Even if you don't accept jobs out of your home area, I wondered if you would give me some information about cost and details as to what the service includes.I have rats in my attic. I have seen an entry place they use at the edge of my screened porch. Several months ago I also had some rats inside my house. Before I realized That I had a rat problem, I had the habit of leaving my sliding glass door open for the breeze. I believe the rats entered that way and/or via a ceiling vent in my laundry room that has been bent. I was able to get rid of the rats in the house but not the rats in the attic. I can hear them and I periodically see one or two when I go on my porch. That is how I know one of the places they are entering the attic. I will need these services: 1. Finding and sealing entry holes 2. Setting snap traps for any rats that are in the attic 3. Removal of dead rats caught in traps 4. Decontamination of attic areas where rats have been 5. Decontamination of the area of the house where I think they were hiding. I know it is not possible to give an exact quote without seeing the house/attic, but I do need a ball park figure for the services above because I am retired and live on a fixed income. I will need to know how much to budget for having the services done. Thanks in advance for the information.

I moved into an apartment complex a week and a half ago. A nice quiet one on the outside looking in. First issue were flies piling in one window so maintenance sealed the window. Then lizards under my sink in the bedroom. Now rats are using the restroom throughout the kitchen and living room. One hole was patched behind the toilet in my bedroom last week. I was awakened just now by the rat trying to chew through the patch. I'm exhausted by all of this. If maintenance patches all of the holes that I can find to point out then what happens to the living things in the wall? I signed a lease for 13 months, so I definitely don't want dead things in the walls while I'm here. I tried glue traps they won't walk on them. I just feel that being a new tenant yet to cook a meal here that this is a lot to deal with. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Scranton Rat Control Tip of The Week

Why Glue Traps Are An Inhumane Option For Rats

Glue Traps Won't Kill An Animal:
A glue trap will not humanely kill an animal; the glue is not toxic in any way. A glue trap merely traps the animal in one place and ensures that over the course of several days the animals will die of dehydration, starvation, or eventually suffocation. Many animals end up removing their own skin and fur to get away. Some rats will even take off some of their limbs trying to get free and can be successful in doing so with glue traps.

They Can Be Harmful To Your Pets:
Getting a pet stuck in a glue trap can be just as damaging. If your pet happens to stumble across one of these traps they could end up with it stuck to their fur and the need for shaving or immediate medical care.

They Lead To Harmful Smells In Your Home:
Because the animal will likely die of suffocation this can often lead to the glue trap starting to smell depending on the area of your home that it is in. Rather than having harmful odors throughout your home, it would be wise for you to consider a different option that is much faster for killing a rat.

They Don't Remove The Problem:
Glue traps don't target nests and they don't take away the chance that rats could continue to breed and increase their numbers. Choosing a different type of trap could be a better option for targeting parents that can breed in the area.

They Don't Seal Up Other Areas Where Rats Could Get In:
A glue trap is a temporary solution and it will only work on the rats that you have inside your home. If rats find a different area to get into or they are able to burrow deeper, the glue trap will not stop them.

Rats Are Quite Intelligent:
If you have a glue trap that's in a regular spot, rats may soon start to avoid it over time. No matter how tempting the glue bait may seem, a rat may actively avoid a trap after it's been in an area for some time.
