Where rats and mice have been living for a while, they leave a mess behind. Nests of shredded insulation, paper and fabric build up in roof voids, wall spaces, sheds and storage boxes, along with droppings and urine stains. This mess holds a strong smell and can draw new rodents in. Nests in roof voids can also soak insulation with urine, which leaves stains on the ceiling below over time. We book rodent nest removal across Mount Gravatt with a nearby independent pest crew.
Nest removal is usually done once the rodents themselves are under control, either on the same visit as trapping or baiting, or on a later visit. The crew we book wears gloves and a mask, dampens the area to keep dust down, and bags the nest material and droppings for disposal.
- Nest material cleared from the roof void or storage area
- Droppings bagged rather than swept or blown around
- Heavily soiled insulation removed where needed
- A deodorising spray on the affected area
- A note of any chewed wiring or pipes for you to have checked by an electrician or plumber
Please do not vacuum or sweep dry droppings yourself, because it stirs dust into the air. If you need to clean a small area, wear gloves, wet the droppings first and wipe them up with paper towel. Open a window or two while you work so fresh air moves through. Larger nests in roof voids are better left to the crew, who have the gear to work in tight, dusty spaces.
When you call, tell us where the nest is and how large the area looks, and we will give you an upfront price. Nest removal in Mount Gravatt is booked same-day or next-day where the run allows. Call 07 3543 7768 to book.
