Droppings and nesting material can build up in a roof, subfloor or garage over the time rats have been active, and most Brisbane callers want this cleared once the rats themselves are dealt with. The crew we book can remove droppings, old nesting material and any damaged insulation from the roof or subfloor space. Old bedding, cardboard and other soft materials rats had gathered for nesting are also removed, since they can hold odour long after the rats themselves are gone.
This is usually done after bait or trapping has confirmed the activity has stopped, since clearing droppings too early just means doing it again if rats are still moving through. The crew will check the space again while cleaning, so anything missed on the first inspection, such as a second nest, gets picked up. Surfaces are wiped down where droppings have been sitting, and any stored items nearby are checked in case they need to be cleaned or set aside as well.
For a Brisbane home where droppings have built up over months, insulation in the affected area may need replacing rather than just cleaning, since it can hold onto odour. The crew can point this out during the visit and give you a separate price if replacement is needed. For a Brisbane roof that has not been checked in some time, this stage can take longer than the removal itself, simply because of how much has built up.
