The destruction of rodents in a private house is fraught with a number of difficulties. Animals are quick adaptation to chemical components, quick wits. Cleverly bypass the traps prepared for them, traps. However, it is necessary to fight rats and mice, because these rodents carry dangerous diseases, some of them can even cause death. In addition, rodents, depending on the object in which they settled, are capable of causing serious material damage. They spoil furniture, food, wiring.
If it is not possible to exterminate pests at home, there is a reason to contact specialized services that exist in almost every city. The advantages of calling specialists are many. How is the processing of premises from rats and mice, consider the example of the work of Moscow companies.
On a note!
A set of measures to destroy harmful rodents is called deratization. It can be preventive, aimed at preventing the appearance of pests, as well as fighter.
How is the deratization
In medical, children's institutions, catering facilities, and trade, disinfection from rats and mice is a mandatory procedure and is carried out on a mandatory basis quarterly, annually, depending on the epidemiological status and significance of the facility. The destruction of rats under the contract is carried out by the selected sanitary service, which conducts the direct event to control rodents and controls the process.
Private individuals order deratization on their own initiative when they do not want to fight harmful animals on their own. Treatment from rats can be carried out in apartments, houses, basements, in attics, in garages, outbuildings. After contacting a specialized service, an employee of the company usually arrives and estimates the extent and degree of contamination of the premises. Depending on the results of the audit, the client may be offered rat rat ratization in the following ways:
- The mechanical method involves installing traps, rat traps. Often used in small areas, mainly for rat control in private homes, apartments, cellars. Modern rat exterminators are far ahead of the primitive homemade rat trapsmade by handicraft in terms of efficiency and safety. The mechanical method is preferred by those people who are opposed to the use of poisons. An important advantage of this method is the low cost of the service.
- Poisoning rodents with raticides is an affordable method and the most effective when it is necessary to destroy a large population as soon as possible. For this purpose, long-acting baits are used that can poison rats for a long time. According to experts, the effectiveness of the chemical method is 100%. Disinsectors will poison rodents' favorite food, add rat poison into the water and along the routes of their movement.If there is a need to process the holes, they will carry out the aeration of the nests.
- The combined method involves a combination of chemicals and rat trapping. The algorithm is selected taking into account the area of the room and the population of pests.
- Gasification - an option that is applicable in the field or at large facilities; rats in houses are not destroyed by gas. Another name for the method is fumigation. The essence of the procedure is to fill the hermetically sealed room with carbon monoxide or phosphorous hydrogen. All rodents in the processed object die. Gas does not cause harm to existing products, but it is capable of etching pests. Protection against rats in the building is short-term, since after weathering the smell there is no guarantee that new individuals will not come. Therefore, aeration should be combined with preventive measures that will prevent subsequent colonization of rats.
Processing from rodents can be carried out in two stages. This approach allows you to get a guaranteed result. The duration of the procedure ranges from half an hour to 3 hours and is determined by the area, contamination of the room. In a number of companies, employees clean up dead animals and dispose of them.
On a note!
During the destruction of rodents, simultaneous disinfection and pest control operations are possible. There are frequent cases when, after the deratization of the cellars of the inhabitants, fleas began to attack. Left without their owners, insects are forced to look for new sources of nutrition. Rat fleas not only bite painfully, but also are carriers of dangerous diseases.
The benefits of professional disinfestation
Almost everyone can poison rats. Only the result may not always live up to expectations, even if the most effective rat remedies. Rodents are by no means stupid and they will not succeed in catching them in primitive traps or on poorly prepared baits. It is not enough to calculate the dose of the poison and the effectiveness of the procedure will be reduced to zero:
- if there is too little poisonous component, rodents can adapt to it and subsequently with pleasure, without harm to themselves, absorb bait with this chemical substance;
- excess poison will negatively affect the taste characteristics of the bait and its aroma, which in turn will lead to the fact that the rat will not eat it.
Experienced disruptors do not face such problems. In addition, the extermination of rodents is not limited to the preparation of baits. It is necessary to know the physiology of the rat, its habits, the ability to find their nests, to distinguish residential from abandoned and many more nuances that the ignorant person does not even suspect.
Advantages of contacting a specialized rat extermination service:
- No need to test poison for ratsthat do not always have the desired effect, to build structures for trapping rodents - all these concerns are automatically transferred to specialists.
- Guaranteed rat kill.
- The use of highly effective poisons, which are not available for the average buyer in hardware stores. The drugs used are safe for people and pets.
- Reasonable cost of services. Often, calling a specialist is cheaper than buying rodenticides.
How much does deratization cost

For the installation of long-acting baits about 2500 rubles. Ordering a comprehensive service, which additionally includes fog treatment with a deterrent effect, costs about 4,500 rubles.

Concluded a pest control agreement with one of these companies. I was satisfied with the work of the guys.
I think that such a service is necessary only for legal entities. A simple layman of a city apartment does not need to get rid of rats. Where do they come from?
We got rats in the basement. At first, all the residents waved away, saying that they did not bother anyone. Until the rodents began to roam around the porches and scare the children. Quickly everything came together and ordered deratization.
So it was necessary to apply to the Housing Office and state sanitation, then everything would have worked out for free.
When I saw a rat in the cellar, I immediately called the sanitary service. I am afraid of rodents to death.
If you do not experience material difficulties, then they did the right thing. Specialists should be engaged in each business. And we are pensioners, we drive the rats the old fashioned way: traps and rats.
I work in a grocery store, we have a contract and the guys come every quarter. They set up some houses for the hunters, change them.
My neighbors and I ordered a disinfestation in the basement. There are no more lives from rats. And now, after the persecution, it has become good. And the products can be stored and walk safely.
Not so low rates for baiting rats.
