Rats and mice around Mount Gravatt tend to move indoors as the weather cools or when a nearby building site or overgrown yard disturbs their usual shelter. Roof voids, subfloors, wall cavities behind kitchens and the gap behind stoves and fridges are the usual spots, along with garages and sheds where pet food or stored boxes are kept. Scratching noises at night, droppings along skirting boards and gnaw marks on food packaging are the usual first signs.
The crew we book will inspect the roof void, subfloor and other likely entry points before deciding where to place bait stations and traps, since rodents tend to run along the same fixed routes close to walls rather than crossing open floor space. Entry points such as gaps around pipes, vents without mesh and gaps under doors are noted so they can be sealed, since ongoing control depends as much on blocking access as on baiting.
Older highset homes in Mount Gravatt with timber subfloors are particularly attractive to rats, while units and townhouses more often see mice coming in through gaps around shared service risers or car park entrances. Bait stations are placed out of reach of children and pets where possible, and the technician will explain where they have been placed before leaving.
