Residential Rat Removal in Lawrenceville
Most of our Lawrenceville work is residential. Homes here range from older pier-and-beam houses near Downtown to newer builds in Sugarloaf and Collins Hill, and each type has its own rat problems. Families call us because they hear scratching at night, find droppings in the kitchen, or smell something dead in a wall. We handle the whole job: trapping, sealing, sanitation, and follow-up. You get a flat quote, a clean work area, and a house that stays rat-free.
We set snap traps, live traps, and bait stations in the attic and crawl space, then check them every few days until activity stops. In Lawrenceville homes, most jobs need 8 to 20 traps depending on the size of the infestation. We remove dead rats and droppings as we go.
We seal every gap wider than a quarter inch with copper mesh, steel wool, hardware cloth, and exclusion sealant. Common Lawrenceville entry points include soffit gaps, foundation vents, dryer vents, and plumbing penetrations. Sealing is what keeps rats from coming back next season.
Rats ruin insulation and vapor barrier with urine and chewing. We remove contaminated material, spray disinfectant and deodorizer, and install new insulation and vapor barrier. This restores the R-value and removes the odor that attracts new rats.
A dead rat in a wall or attic can make a whole Lawrenceville house smell for weeks. We locate the carcass with inspection mirrors and flashlights, remove it, and treat the area with disinfectant and deodorizer. Most dead rat calls are finished in under two hours.
