Rat Bait

It isn't the answer to permanent rat control

Rat bait is designed to kill rats, but killing individual rats doesn’t solve the real problem — how they are getting into a property in the first place. Rats are highly selective feeders, cautious of new food sources, and increasingly resistant to the toxins used in bait. As a result, rat bait often fails, is ignored altogether, or provides only a short-term reduction while the infestation continues unseen. Even when bait appears to work, it treats the symptom rather than the cause, allowing rats to return again and again.

Effective rat control comes from prevention, not poison. By identifying exactly how rats are accessing a building and permanently blocking those entry points, the infestation is stopped at the source. This is the approach Pestology takes: no rat bait, no traps, and no temporary fixes — just expert investigation, targeted rat-proofing, and long-term solutions that keep properties rat-free for good.
