Rodent Control in Johannesburg
Rats and mice live in your ceiling and walls, where you hear them long before you see them. We find how they are getting in, seal it, and put the bait in locked stations away from your pets and kids.
- You stop hearing them running across the ceiling at night.
- Nothing new moves in, since we close up the roof line, the eaves and the gaps they came through.
- The bait sits in locked stations your pets and children cannot get to, and you know where every one of them is.
Why Rodents Are a Serious Problem
Rodents spread diseases, damage your home, and move silently inside your walls. Here's why you should not wait to deal with them.
They Carry Diseases
Mice and rats carry salmonella, hantavirus, and other harmful bacteria. They leave droppings and urine everywhere they go, including your kitchen counters, pantry shelves, and storage areas. If your family is getting sick and you can't figure out why, rodents could be the reason.
They Chew Through Wiring
Rodents love to chew on electrical wires, and that creates a real fire hazard. A lot of house fires are caused by rodent damage that nobody even knew about.
They Move Silently
Rodents travel inside the walls and along the ceiling where you cannot see them. By the time you hear scratching or find droppings, the problem is already bigger than you think.
They Attract More Pests
Rodents bring fleas, mites, and even roaches with them. Once mice or rats settle in, other pests follow because of the food scraps and nesting materials they leave behind. Getting rid of rodents early stops a much bigger pest problem from building up.
Signs of a Rodent Infestation
Early detection helps stop rodents before they cause major damage. If any of these sound familiar, give us a call.
Scratching Noises at Night
Hearing scratching or scurrying in the walls, the ceiling or the roof after dark? That's one of the most common signs that mice or rats have moved in.
Droppings in Cabinets or Pantries
Small, dark pellets in your drawers, behind appliances, or in storage areas? That's rodent droppings, and it means they're actively getting into your food and supplies.
Chewed Wires or Packaging
Rodents chew on everything, including wires, insulation, food packaging, and even wood. If something looks gnawed on, you've got a problem.
Grease Marks Along Walls
Rats and mice leave oily, dark streaks along baseboards and walls where they travel. If you see dark smudges low on the wall, they're using that as a highway.
Strong, Unpleasant Odor
A musty, ammonia-like smell from behind the walls, up in the roof or in a store room usually means rodent urine and nesting material have been building up.
Holes or Gnaw Marks Around Doors
Finding small holes around doors, vents, or where pipes come through the wall? Rodents can squeeze through a gap the size of a quarter to get inside.
Store Traps Aren't Working
If you've set traps or bait from the hardware store and rodents keep coming back, the problem is too big for DIY solutions. There are more hiding than you're catching.

Rodent Control Near You
Rats and mice follow the roof line, the drains and the refuse, and every suburb has all three. We seal and bait right across Johannesburg. Pick your suburb below.

See Bryanston page
Douglasdale, Gauteng
Most homes here sit in complexes, where one unit with a problem quickly becomes four. We look at the shared walls and drains, not just your flat.
See Douglasdale page
Roodepoort, Gauteng
Older houses out west have the gaps and roof voids that rats love. We find where they are getting in and close it off.
See Roodepoort page

Saxonwold, Gauteng
Old homes with wooden floors, big roofs and mature gardens need a careful hand. We work around your finishes and your pets.
See Saxonwold page

See Linksfield page

The older houses on the hill have plenty of cracks and cavities for roaches to sit in. We treat where they live, not just where you see them.
See Brixton page

Houses sit close together and uncollected refuse feeds the rats, so treating one yard alone rarely holds. We plan the job around that.
See Soweto page

Newer homes on small stands, where rats move along the boundary walls from one yard to the next. We seal the runs as well as treating.
See Protea Glen page

Yes, completely safe for your family and animals. We use tamper-resistant bait stations and methods that target rodents only. Your kids and pets can't get into them.
Most people notice a big difference within the first week. Depending on how many there are, it can take a couple of weeks to fully clear them out. We check back to make sure everything is handled.
No, you can stay home. Our methods are safe and don't involve strong chemicals or fumes. We place stations and seal entry points, and none of that requires you to leave.
Having rodents does not mean your house is dirty. They come inside looking for warmth, water, and shelter. All they need is a small gap to squeeze through. Even brand new homes can have rodent problems.
No. We don't lock anyone into contracts. We take care of your rodent problem and if you want ongoing protection, we can set that up. But it's always your call.
