Rat & rodent control built around Port Moody properties

Port Moody’s mix of shoreline, mountainside lots, and dense townhome clusters means pest issues vary street by street. We inspect for moisture, entry points, and greenbelt contact, then build a plan that matches your property, not a generic checklist.

Rodents can cause significant property damage and health risks. Our rodent control specialists use integrated approaches including trapping, baiting, exclusion, and habitat modification to eliminate infestations and prevent recurrence.

The Rat Vac is a motion-sensor rodent catching system designed to work with a compatible wet/dry (shop) vacuum: rodents are drawn to a baited entry, and when movement is detected the vacuum triggers so the animal is pulled into containment in the drum, useful along known travel paths and for wary individuals that sidestep some traditional traps. We deploy it as part of a larger IPM plan (placement, baiting, exclusion, follow-up), not as a standalone gimmick.

Roof rats, Norway rats, and house mice exploit different routes, roof lines, utility penetrations, garage doors, and overgrown perimeter. We look for droppings, gnaw marks, grease rubs, and burrows, then sequence control so you are not just killing individuals while the population rebounds. We prioritize tamper-resistant stations where regulations allow, pet-safe placements, and clear communication about what to expect week to week.

Strata documentation

We help councils understand scope and timing when units share walls or common garbage rooms.

Seasonal wasps & spiders

Exterior treatments and de-webbing reduce pressure before outdoor events and peak summer use.

How service usually works

  1. 1

    Rodent Inspection

    We conduct a thorough inspection to identify rodent species, entry points, nesting areas, and the extent of the infestation. Our inspections use motion sensor cameras, a borescope, and a thermal camera to locate pest activity in voids, wall cavities, attics, and rooflines that a visual walkthrough alone can miss.

  2. 2

    Customized Treatment Plan

    Based on our findings, we create a targeted plan using traps, baits, and exclusion methods appropriate for your situation.

  3. 3

    Implementation & Monitoring

    We implement the treatment plan and provide ongoing monitoring to ensure complete rodent elimination and prevention.

Frequently asked questions

How do you prevent rodents from returning?

We focus on exclusion by sealing entry points, removing food sources, and habitat modification. We also provide prevention recommendations for ongoing rodent control.

What is the Rat Vac you use?

We deploy the Rat Vac motion-sensor rodent catching system, the shop-vac–based station where bait draws rodents in and movement triggers suction into a wet/dry vacuum drum for removal. Product details from the manufacturer: https://shoprodentfree.com/products/rat-vac-motion-sensor-rodent-catching-systems. We use it when placement, species behavior, and regulations make it the right tool alongside traps, bait stations, and proofing; your technician confirms fit at inspection.

Do you handle dead rodent removal?

Yes, we safely remove dead rodents and thoroughly clean affected areas to eliminate odors and prevent disease transmission.

Are your methods humane?

We use humane trapping methods whenever possible and follow ethical pest control standards. Our goal is effective control with minimal suffering.

I hear scratching in the walls, what should I do?

Avoid sealing holes blindly before the population is controlled; we inspect first to locate access and activity, then combine trapping and proofing so animals do not die inside voids.

Do you provide rat control in Burnaby?

Yes. Burnaby sees heavy rat and mouse pressure near greenbelts, lanes, and multi-unit buildings. We inspect for species, entry points, and food sources, then use trapping, secured stations where appropriate, and exclusion so populations do not rebound.
