Baiting is the main way most rat and mouse problems are brought under control. Done well, it puts bait exactly where rodents travel and feed, in stations that keep it away from children, pets and wildlife. Done badly, it means loose blocks thrown into the roof, which rodents can carry off and drop anywhere. Placement also matters for how quickly things settle. Stations sitting on a busy runway usually get eaten from within a night or two, while blocks dropped in random spots can sit untouched for weeks as rodents keep feeding in the pantry.
When you call, we ask about the home, the signs you have seen and who lives there, including pets. We give you upfront pricing and book an independent crew that works on the Sunshine Coast. The crew we book inspects first, then decides how many stations are needed and where they should go.
- Lockable bait stations secured in place in the roof, garage and outside
- Stations set along runways, near nests and at entry points
- Bait chosen to suit the rodent and the home
- A list of where every station sits so you can check them
- Advice on topping up or removing stations later on
Rodents usually take bait over several nights, so it takes a week or two to see a clear drop in activity. Keep food and pet bowls put away during this time so the bait is the easiest meal around. If you have young children or animals, tell us on the call and the crew can use traps in some spots instead.
Baiting can be booked on its own or with rodent proofing so the gaps are sealed at the same time. We book baiting for homes and units across the Sunshine Coast. Call 07 3543 7768 to get a price.
