Baiting is one of the main ways to bring rat and mouse numbers down, especially where rodents are nesting in hard-to-reach places. We book rodent baiting across Mount Gravatt with a nearby independent pest crew, and you get an upfront price when you call.
The crew we book uses lockable bait stations rather than loose bait. The stations have a small opening that rodents can enter, and the bait is held inside so it does not spill or get carried around. The crew places them along the runs rodents use, which are often next to walls, behind sheds, along fence lines and inside the roof void. Each station is held in place or weighted so it cannot be dragged away.
- Bait stations placed where the signs of activity are strongest
- Stations kept out of reach of pets where possible
- A note of where each station is so you can find it
- Advice on removing other food sources nearby
- Refills on a later visit if needed, priced upfront
Bait usually takes several days to work, and rats can be slow to try something new. Keep pet food and fallen fruit cleaned up so the bait is the easiest meal around. If a rodent dies in a wall or ceiling space, there can be a smell for a week or two. The crew can talk through ways to reduce this, including using traps in some spots instead of bait. Avoid moving the stations yourself unless the crew says it is fine.
Tell us when you book if you have dogs, cats or young children, so the crew can plan the right mix of bait and traps. Baiting visits in Mount Gravatt are same-day or next-day where the run allows. Call 07 3543 7768 to book.
