Permanent rodent removal requires unique expertise.
Our rat control process usually consists of
- In-depth assessment
- Address available resources and structural flaws

Start with a Pest Impact Strategy Audit
Maybe you want to take a step back and look at the big picture before you pull the trigger on a new program or provider. Or maybe you have a pest-related problem you are having trouble solving. If this sounds like you, starting with a PISA could be the best starting point.
For the cost of an average callout, a PISA will empower you to make cost-effective, sustainable pest management decisions.
Gone are the days of ineffective, unsustainable poison programs.
Make better, informed property and pest management decisions armed with your PISA.
You don’t need to stick with a program that isn’t working for you.
If you are paying monthly for pest control and not seeing results, it is likely because your money is not being used to target the root causes. The PISA will show you what pests are on-site, why they are sticking around, and how they are getting into your structures.
Armed with this information, you can prove inefficacy and demand better service from your provider, or you will likely have little trouble walking away from your contract.
Know your pest control program before getting quotes.
Provide your PISA to any companies quoting on your property to ensure you wind up with a service tailored to your needs. The pest control industry is notorious for untargeted, broad programs that revolve around recurring poison applications. Ensure you get the bang for your buck.
Who is responsible for the pests?
This is a common dispute between landlords and tenants, property managers, and even neighboring properties. These arguments can be ongoing and often end up costing more in the long run, as the pest problems are usually left unchecked until a party takes responsibility.
Your PISA will determine the root cause of your pest problem as well as layout the steps forward for a permanent result. With this knowledge, the responsibility becomes clear.
Prioritize results and ethics on your property.
Of course, simply wanting to pursue a more sustainable relationship with your property and environment is reason enough!
Your PISA will provide you with everything you need to understand your property and its needs, and effectively develop and implement a sustainable pest management program.

British Columbia’s Ban on Second-Generation Anticoagulant Rodenticides
- There is little evidence proving rodenticides have a meaningful and long-term impact on micro and macro-rodenticide populations and their associated problems.
- There is mounting evidence of the environmental degradation caused by the mass use of rodenticides.

Nope. You have likely purchased your stations and their contracts typically don’t hold water. Simply call them and state you won’t tolerate poison on your property and if they can’t provide an equal trapping alternative, you don’t want their services. Usually, they pull you from the route and leave the equipment for us to deal with.
This works most of the time. We’re here to help at any point.
