What will the Pest control officer do?
The pest control officers are trained to recognise signs of infestations and will advise you whether there is likely to be a nest nearby or if you have a ”rat run”. After discussing the problem with you the pest control officer will often lay bait in a secure location. After a few days the pest control officer will return to your property to see if the rat has taken the bait. If no bait has been taken, the pest control officer may remove the bait if practicable. If the bait has been taken and the pest control officer feels it necessary they will lay more bait and return again. Once the problem has been resolved the pest control officer will return and collect any spare bait. If they are unable to gain access to the baited area they will leave a card with instructions on how to dispose of unused bait.
