Rats enter your home through small holes and cracks, and they have the ability to squeeze their body into spaces the size of a quarter. Once they have gained entry into your home or business, they begin to nest and breed inside your attic, floors, and walls, damaging your property and putting your health at risk.

First Choice Animal Solutions 3 step process
Step 1- Trapping
First Choice Animal Solutions will always begin the trapping process as soon as possible with either live cages, instant kill snap traps or one-way valves. The reason why is to ensure the rodents do not cause any further damages to any wires, insulation, ductwork or drywall. When First Choice Animal Solutions sets the traps, the technicians are on call 24/7 and will come back every 2-3 days to check, bait or rearrange any traps that need attention.
Step 2- Full home Exclusion
Once the traps are set and baited it’s imperative to close up all potential entry points on the roofline and ground level. With rats being food source dependent, they usually will stick to their main food source. This is why trapping and exclusion work needs to be done at the same time, so the rats are drawn to our bait source.
First Choice Animal Solutions does not use any foam or wood products when closing up entry points. With our industry-leading 2-year guarantee, it crucial to always seal entry points with a metal-based product that we paint exactly to match the exterior soffits. That way it blends right into the structure and can go unnoticed to the untrained eye.
Step 3- Fogging Treatment
After First Choice Animal Solutions has eradicated the rodent issue, it’s important to treat the entire attic space with our three-phase fogging system. Rodents leave not only a lot of bacteria but a pheromone scent that will attract another colony of the animal to that attic space. In the most severe cases, our professional Wildlife Technician will recommend changing out the attic insulation. This happens when the attic space has a strong urine odor, meaning the pheromone scent is too strong.
We will thoroughly inspect your property, identifying and sealing off potential points of entry. We will look for evidence of infestation and provide you a detailed treatment plan that guarantees the total removal of rats- as well as prevents them from ever returning.
Interesting Facts
• An adult rat squeezes into your home through a hole as small as the size of a quarter.
• Because rats are awake and active at night, you may hear evidence of their activity like scratching or scurrying in the middle of the night.
• Rats have strong teeth that allow them to chew through glass, cinderblock, electrical wire, aluminum, and fiberglass insulation.
• Rats have 4 to 6 litters per year, with 6 to 12 babies per litter. That means one female rat can have 24 to 72 babies in one year!
