    Rodent Pest Control with CPS

    Rodents are among the most destructive and costly pests facing Australian homes and businesses. More than just an inconvenience, rats and mice contaminate food, spread dangerous bacteria, and damage property with their constant gnawing. Their ability to chew through packaging, wiring, insulation, and even structural materials creates fire hazards, stock losses, and expensive repairs. To make matters worse, rodents reproduce rapidly, meaning a small problem can become a full-blown infestation in a matter of weeks.

    At Competitive Pest Services, we know that by the time you see a rat scurrying along a wall or hear scratching in the ceiling, the infestation is often well established. That’s why we take a proactive, thorough approach that combines inspection, exclusion, treatment, and prevention — ensuring rodents are not only removed but kept out for good.

    How CPS Manages Rodent Infestations

    Our process begins with a detailed inspection of your property. Our technicians identify signs of rodent activity, entry points, nesting areas, and vulnerabilities that could allow pests to return. Every property is unique, whether it’s a warehouse, restaurant, office, or home, and our recommendations are tailored to your specific environment.

    Once risks are identified, we implement exclusion measures to block access, sealing cracks, utility gaps, and hidden openings that rodents exploit. This step is essential, because eliminating rodents without addressing how they got in leaves you exposed to repeat infestations.

    Treatment follows, using safe and effective methods that may include traps, baits, or non-toxic alternatives, depending on your needs and compliance requirements. We apply these strategically to target rodents without disrupting your operations or putting staff, customers, or pets at risk.

    But rodent control doesn’t stop once the immediate issue is resolved. CPS provides ongoing monitoring to ensure populations don’t rebound. Regular checks of bait stations, activity indicators, and sanitation practices allow us to adapt and fine-tune your pest management program over time. Detailed service reports are provided at each visit, ensuring you have a clear record of compliance and an evidence base to guide future prevention.

    Why Prevention Matters

    Rodents are opportunistic and highly adaptable. They can squeeze through openings as small as a coin and thrive anywhere food, water, and shelter are available. That’s why prevention is the most effective and cost-efficient approach. With CPS as your partner, you don’t just get a one-time treatment — you get a comprehensive management plan that protects your property long-term, reduces operational risks, and safeguards your reputation.

    Why Rodents Are a Serious Risk

    Rats and mice are among the most destructive pests in Australia. They contaminate food, spread dangerous bacteria, and gnaw through packaging, wiring, and even structural materials. Infestations can damage stock, create fire hazards, and put your compliance at risk. Because rodents breed rapidly, a small problem can quickly escalate into a major infestation.

    Signs of Rodent Activity

    Rodents are nocturnal and secretive, but they leave behind clear evidence. Common signs include scratching sounds in walls or ceilings, droppings, gnaw marks on food or packaging, unusual odours, or sightings of live rodents. If you notice any of these indicators, it’s time to act.

    Risks to Your Business or Home

    Left unchecked, rodents can cause:

    • Contamination of food and surfaces, spreading salmonella and leptospirosis

    • Structural damage to buildings and equipment through constant gnawing

    • Fire hazards from chewing electrical wiring

    • Loss of stock and costly repairs

    • Reputational damage and potential compliance breaches

    Our Rodent Control Process

    At Competitive Pest Services, we take a proactive, tailored approach:

    Inspection — Our technicians conduct detailed site assessments to identify activity, entry points, and vulnerabilities.
    Exclusion — We block access by sealing cracks, gaps, and openings rodents use to enter.
    Treatment — Safe, effective solutions are applied strategically to remove infestations with minimal disruption.
    Monitoring — Regular follow-ups ensure pests don’t return, with ongoing reporting for compliance and peace of mind.

    Prevention Is the Best Strategy

    Rodents are opportunistic. Once they find food and shelter, they are difficult to dislodge. That’s why prevention is always more cost-effective than reacting to an outbreak. With CPS, you get long-term protection, reduced risk, and the confidence that your property remains safe, compliant, and pest-free.
