How much does rat removal cost?

Rat removal will cost differently depending on the type of company you opt for. There are two types of rat removal companies - there’s the type that uses poison, and then there’s the one that doesn’t. It's the latter you will want to go for. It might not be the cheapest option, but in the long run, it will be.



If you hire a rat removal specialist who uses poison, you're going to end up with dead rats somewhere in your home. You're going to need to find those rats, sometimes cutting out entire sections of dry wall, and then dispose of them, as well as finding every rat poop and urine splash, and every piece of contaminated material (such as attic insulation) to dispose of those also.

If your guy is using poison, they probably won’t help you with the rest of the task. That’s when you’ll end up calling in the kind of rat removal expert who DOESN’T use poison.

These guys - the good guys - don't use poison because they use snap traps instead. Although live cage traps are probably the option you were expecting to hear, they’re not as humane as you’d think, and as a rat removal option, they rarely work effectively. Lethal rat traps, on the other hand, has an excellent success rate, but only when you use them on conjunction with a thorough inspection and sealing / repair mission around the infested property.

The good guys - the guys who don't use poison - they will help you with all of this. The snap traps, the finding of the rats, removal of the babies, cutting out of walls and then repairing them again, and even removing corpses, feces, and all contaminated matter. They’ll find the holes (we use a 32-point inspection process), and then they’ll seal them up, using only the very best rat-proof materials. These include copper wire wool, steel mesh wire, and even woven hardware cloth. Plastic, wood, and even drywall are NOT rat-proof.

Call around to get free quotes for your rat removal job before you make your final decision, and always do your research. We would NEVER advice using a rat removal company who recommends poison as a first choice. As any choice, in fact.
