HOW WE WORK
Our services begin with apreliminary analysis of rat activity on the site using a team of two dogs.
Our dogs can sense areas of rat activity, such as nests, that are not always visible
to the human eye.
The data that the dogs’ senses provide is combined with our expert human knowledge
about rat behavior.After our visit, we will present a written report documenting factors on
the site contributing to rat activity. This will include a plan for changes that can be made to
the built or natural environment to minimize rat incursions.
In many cases clients are unable to make the necessary changes because of the uses on site,
or because of immutable factors on adjacent sites. In these cases, we offer a subscription hunt
service. These weekly or bi-weekly hunts vary for the level of rat activity on-site when we begin to
visit regularly. These hunts include the use of two dogs, and a hand-held smoke machine.
The smoke machine burns vegetable oil and expresses the smoke into the rat burrows.
It is no more toxic than burning a pan in the kitchen. After a couple weeks, these hunts
restore balance between the rats on-site and other dominant species.
