Rat Control Service Process

The Rat Control Process

A proven process to permanently eliminate rat problems

Effective rat control isn’t about reacting to rats once they’ve appeared — it’s about following the right process, led by the right experts, to remove the cause of the problem completely. At Pestology, rat control means rat elimination. We don’t attempt to manage rats with short-term measures; instead, we prevent rats from entering your property in the first place. This prevention-led approach is why we achieve consistently successful outcomes, provide a rat control guarantee, and are trusted by so many homeowners and businesses to resolve serious rat problems properly.

From the moment you contact Pestology, you’re in safe hands. Our experienced office team will take the time to understand your situation, ask the right questions, and explain how the rat control process works. This initial conversation allows us to understand what you’re experiencing, what you want to achieve, and how best to move forward — ensuring the solution is tailored, not generic.

Expert investigation — because the cause matters

Every successful rat control solution starts with a detailed survey. Rats don’t enter buildings randomly, and guessing leads to failure. Our specialist rat control engineers carry out thorough inspections of the building fabric above and below ground to identify exactly how rats are gaining access. This typically includes advanced CCTV drainage surveys, which we conduct ourselves using professional-grade equipment and specialist knowledge — even if another contractor has already inspected the drains. We know what to look for, where others often miss it, and how to interpret what the evidence is really telling us.

Once the investigation is complete, we clearly explain our findings and put together a written scope of works. This outlines how the rats are entering the property, what remedial measures are required, and how we will eliminate the problem at its source. You’ll receive a fixed price — not an estimate — and, where applicable, a one-year rat control guarantee. This clarity means you know exactly what needs to be done, why it needs doing, and how it will permanently resolve the infestation.

Delivered properly, guaranteed to work

If you choose to proceed, all rat control works are carried out by Pestology’s own directly employed specialists — never subcontractors. We use our own equipment, follow proven methods, and maintain full control over every stage of the process to ensure the work is completed to the highest standard. Our projects are supervised, documented, and delivered with care because getting rat control right depends on precision, experience, and accountability.

This end-to-end process is what sets Pestology apart. We don’t cut corners, we don’t rely on quick fixes, and we don’t walk away once traps are set. We identify the cause, fix it properly, and stand behind our work with confidence. If you’re dealing with rats and want the problem resolved permanently, Pestology offers a professional, expert-led rat control service you can trust.
