How To Get Rid Of Rats

Rat droppings or bite marks on wood or plastic are sure signs of rats. For many businesses, rats are huge pests that can cause food contamination, spread deadly diseases such as Leptospirosis, cause property damage by chewing electrical wires and causing fires. 

Furthermore the presence of rats can cause severe financial losses through product recalls or forced shutdowns, disrupt operations as well as jeopardise business reputations. Once it is known to the public that your premise may be infested with rats, you can be sure public backlash and business avoidance is sure to follow. Therefore proper rodent management can help to avoid these disasters and ensure business operations are running smoothly. Additionally, learning how to prevent them can help to reduce the risk of reinfestations and avoid unwanted scandals.

Our 4-Step ERDM Approach to Rodent Control

The Rentokil PCI approach is based on four principles that together we call ERDM.

This ERDM approach ensures long-term protection for your business through a systematic approach to pest management.

Our 4-Step ERDM Approach to Rodent Control

At Rentokil PCI, our proactive pest management approach is built on four core pillars: Exclusion, Restriction, Destruction, and Monitoring (ERDM). This system ensures long-term control and prevention of rodent activity.

Exclusion

The first and most important step is to prevent rats from entering your facility. Our experts assess your premises to identify possible entry points and recommend structural proofing measures, waste handling practices, and sanitation upgrades to create a strong first line of defense.

Restriction

If rodents manage to gain access, limiting their ability to move within your premises is key. We implement internal proofing and control solutions that restrict access to critical areas, minimizing the risk of widespread infestation.

Destruction

We deploy safe, effective, and environmentally responsible treatments to remove existing rodent populations. Depending on the site requirements, we also offer non-toxic options that comply with industry regulations and ensure workplace safety.

Monitoring

Rodent control doesn’t end with removal. Our experts continuously monitor pest activity through regular inspections and reports, helping you stay ahead of potential issues and maintain compliance with regulatory standards such as AIB and BRC.
