Rat and Rodent Pest Control in Goregaon

Godowns and storage units in Goregaon

Rats do their worst where goods sit still. Small storages on Aarey Road, units in the Kama Industrial Estate and the logistics warehouses on Ram Mandir Road all hold stock for days or weeks at a time, and a rat will chew through cartons, sacks and wiring to get what it wants.

For these places, you can book once or take a monthly visit. We can come at night, once the unit shuts, so that nobody has to stop work. Stations get checked on each visit, and you know what was found. Read more on commercial pest control in Goregaon.

The four parts of a rat job

If you do not want them killed, humane traps and live trapping are available. Say so when you call.

• Inspection. We see how many there are, which kind, which route they use and where they get in.
• Traps and bait stations. A few rats can often be handled with traps alone. More than that needs secure bait stations. Rats avoid new things at first, so where the station sits matters more than how much bait it holds.
• Closing the way in. Wire mesh, sealed pipe gaps, door sweeps and vent screens. Skip this step and new rats simply walk in.
• Coming back. We check stations, take out nests and confirm that it has stopped.

How long it takes and what it costs

The first treatment takes 1 to 2 hours. Activity should fall in 7 to 14 days, and the rats should be gone in 2 to 4 weeks, with follow-up visits. During this time keep food shut away and bins closed, because a rat with an easy meal will not touch the bait.

Rat control starts at ₹2,000. A one-room shop and a large godown are very different jobs, so the price follows the free inspection. Societies can ask for meter rooms, garbage rooms and basements to be done together. See pest control for flats and societies.

• What is the charge for rat control in a Goregaon flat?

  It starts at ₹2,000, with a 1-year warranty. The final figure depends on the size of the flat and how many rats there are. The technician inspects for free and gives you the price in writing. There is no extra charge for travel inside Goregaon, East or West.

• Do you do rat control at night for godowns on Ram Mandir Road?

  Yes, night visits are possible once the unit has shut. That goes for warehouses on Ram Mandir Road, storages on Aarey Road and units in the Kama Industrial Estate. Tell us your closing time and where you keep the most stock, so that we can plan the bait stations.

• Rats are chewing cartons in my storage. How soon will it stop?

  Expect activity to fall in 7 to 14 days and the rats to be gone in 2 to 4 weeks with follow-up visits. Rats do not trust new things, so they may walk around the stations at first. Keep stock off the floor where you can, and clear out loose food.

• How does a rat reach my upper-floor flat?

  Black rats are good climbers. They use drain pipes, cables, shafts and duct gaps to get up, and they can squeeze through small openings. The inspection traces the route they take, because closing those gaps is what stops the next rat from following the same path.

• Is rat bait safe with kids and a dog at home?

  We use secure bait stations that keep the bait inside, and place them on rat routes rather than in open rooms. Tell the technician about children and pets during the inspection. In places they can reach, traps can be used instead of bait, so nobody has to worry.

• Can you catch a rat and let it go instead of killing it?

  Yes, we have humane traps and live trapping, so ask for that when you book. Closing the gaps matters even more with this method. A rat let go too close by can find its way back, and any opening left in the wall will let in another.

• There is a bad smell in the false ceiling. Could it be a dead rat?

  It could be. If you can reach it safely, wear gloves, take it out and wipe the spot with disinfectant. If it is inside a false ceiling or duct, tell us when you book, and the technician can check. The smell normally goes in a couple of weeks.

• Can our society treat the garbage room and meter room together?

  Yes, and it usually does more good than one flat at a time, because many rat problems start in shared spaces. The society gets one inspection and one written quote for the basement, meter room, garbage room and drains, and can choose regular visits under a yearly plan.

• What can a shop near the market do about rats between visits?

  Keep stock and food in closed containers and off the floor. Take rubbish out each night, sweep under racks, and shut gaps under the shutter and door. Shops close to a market get rats from the waste around them, so these small steps make a real difference between visits.

• Can I get rid of rats in one night?

  No, not properly, and nobody should promise you that. The first treatment takes 1 to 2 hours, but rats are careful and do not take bait straight away. Expect 2 to 4 weeks with follow-ups. If it is urgent, call 80979 41077 and we will start as soon as we can.
