How Do You Know That You Have a Rat Problem?
Discovering an infestation of rats early will save you headache, money, and time. Some of the key signs that you likely have rats are set out below:
Droppings: Rats' feces are most commonly a tell-tale sign that you have rodents. They are usually found in food spaces or along baseboards.
Gnaw Marks: Rats are big chewers, so look for gnaw marks on furniture, food containers, or electrical cords.
Noise During Night: Since rats are night-dwelling creatures, moving noises or squeaks during nighttime is an indicator of rat occupation.
Nesting Supplies: Presence of torn-up paper, fabric, or insulations in hiding spaces is definitive evidence that rat nests are around.
Sewer Odor: Rats will leave an odor because they tend to carry feces and urine with them, especially when nesting in inaccessible spots.
If you see any of the above, it is already time to take action before things get out of hand.
How to Successfully Manage Rats
Successful rat management is a mix of prevention, detection, and treatment. Below is how we manage rat control at Ows Repair:
1. Inspection
We begin with a good, old-fashioned walk-through of your property in an attempt to locate areas of potential entry, nests, and infestation areas. That is what allows us to diagnose the level of infestation and craft a tailored program for your unique situation.
2. Exclusion
Sealing all areas of entry is one of the first things that we will have to do in order to rid you of a rat infestation. Rats are small enough to fit into very small crevices, so our experts will seal holes and cracks in walls, doors, and windows. We will also check your foundation, roof, and vents for possible entry points.
3. Sanitation
A clean environment will discourage the infestation of rats. We suggest removing food, trash can cover, and clean areas. Sanitation will discourage the rats from taking occupancy of the area.
4. Trapping and Baiting
We deploy humane traps and bait stations conveniently placed to catch rats and discourage future infestation. Our experts will make sure that these traps are secure for your family members and animals but fatal for catching rats.
5. Rodenticide (if necessary)
If there is a need, we use rodenticide safely and securely to kill overly clever rats. Our personnel utilizes the most efficient and least hazardous methods available in order to limit exposure.
6. Regular Monitoring and Maintenance
Single treatment rat control isn't something that comes after the treatment. We visit and check to ensure the infestation doesn't come back again. Regular checks enable us to look into the future in order to avert any problem and leave you free from rodents.

Real-Life Case Studies
We have assisted numerous homeowners and companies in Courtland, Selma, and Prattville take back control of their property. Some examples of our work are as follows:
Residential Case: Rat Infestation in a Family Home The residents of one family in Courtland called us after they started hearing scratching sounds coming from their attic at night. Our professionals carried out a rigorous examination and identified proof of an enormous rat infestation in the walls and attic. We immediately closed all the entry points and arranged baited humane traps. The rats disappeared within weeks of observation, and the family could sleep soundly again.
Commercial Case: Restaurant Rat Problem A restaurant in Selma called us after they noticed rat droppings in their kitchen. We came by and found a few gaps in the building structure. We fitted rodent-proof barriers and installed a monitoring system with discreet traps and bait. The rats were eliminated, and the restaurant was successful in passing their health inspection without any problem.
