Rodent control

1. The brown rat, sewer rat, or Norway rat (Rattus Norvegicus)

It primarily lives in humid places, where it digs burrows and tunnels in the basements of buildings and around homes, and frequents sewers. It is mainly nocturnal and is perfectly omnivorous; in addition to animal and plant matter, it gnaws on everything in its path: paper, wood, pipes, electrical cables. Its range of activity is very wide: 50 to 100 meters.

The measures to be implemented

Following the preliminary analysis and taking into account the specifics of the premises, we will determine the most suitable baits, namely :

• whether a specific or non-specific active substance.
• a targeted preparation.

As well as the quantity of rodenticide and the most appropriate locations to place the baits.

Inside buildings, baits will never be placed directly on the ground, but always placed in bait stations to protect them from dust and moisture, as well as to prevent pets from accessing them. When combating mice in apartment buildings, intervention in all infested premises is necessary.

To do this, in consultation between Una désinfection and the owner or the property manager, occupants will be informed of the intervention date through notices, allowing our personnel to have unrestricted access to their apartment. Occupants can either be present themselves or leave keys with the concierge or a neighbor.

Occupants are informed not to move the bait boxes that have been set up in order to optimize the treatment.

2. The black rat (Rattus rattus)

It lives in the upper and dry parts of buildings, such as in attics, false ceilings, and roofs. It does not dig burrows or tunnels. It is primarily nocturnal, very cautious, and avoids traps and unfamiliar objects. Additionally, it is highly intelligent and has an excellent memory. It consumes various provisions such as fruits, seeds, and flours. Its range of activity is approximately 30 meters.

Outside buildings, we use paraffin blocks or sealed sachets, always placed out of reach of other animals. In both cases, bait stations must be monitored and replenished if consumption has occurred, and degraded baits should be removed.

3. Mice

The small gray mouse is a rodent that causes significant damage in our homes and in food storage areas. Its reproduction rate is very fast; after 6 weeks, a litter of 8 to 10 pups can be born, and the cycle repeats every 6 weeks.

It is important to treat the entire building to achieve guaranteed results because mice invade all living areas through technical ducts, disappear under baseboards, and through small cracks.

It is almost impossible to close off access points because the small mouse has a skeleton that allows it to squeeze through spaces of 1 to 2 cm.

We guarantee effective treatment with next-generation rodenticides that have a highly attractive bait to stop the invasion.
