There are several rat species in New Zealand. They're all prolific breeders and will eat anything. Their behaviour means they chew almost anything and cause a huge amount of damage to homes, including plumbing, electrical wiring, and appliances.
They're also a predator of our beautiful native bird species and, along with possums, stoats, and cats, are the reason native bird populations are struggling nationwide. Controlling these animals is hugely important to protect the health and structure of your home, business, and New Zealand's natural environment.
New Zealand only has one mouse species—the house mouse. As with all mice, the house mouse breeds quickly, reaching sexual maturity in just 35 days. These rodents are a nuisance in homes and businesses, causing a lot of mess and damage as they gnaw on and eat just about anything they can get their hands on.
Both mice and rats pose health and safety issues for any business, from hospitality, food production, and farming to accommodation and aged care facilities, making proper mouse and rat extermination essential.
As experts in all areas of extermination and pest control, including rodent, spider, and cockroach extermination, we understand the urgency of addressing infestations.
In particular, rodent infestations in homes or workplaces require immediate attention due to the numerous risks they pose. Hiring rodent exterminators who can provide professional rodent pest control services is not just about removing mice and rats from your property, but also safeguarding health and protecting property in the long term.
Here at Select Home Services, we frequently provide our services to commercial kitchens (restaurants, cafes), warehouses, nurseries, and plant barns.
Health issues
Rodents are carriers of diseases harmful to humans. It's not just about spotting a mouse or rat; it's about what they leave behind. From their droppings to their urine, these little critters can spread illnesses.
Protect your belongings
Rodents chew through just about anything. Effective rodent control keeps your belongings safe and sound.
Allergies and asthma
The allergens found in their droppings, urine, and dander can trigger allergic reactions and asthma attacks. Our rodent pest control services aim to allow everyone in your space to breathe easier without worrying about allergens lurking around.
Safeguard your kitchen
Imagine you're about to cook dinner, only to find your ingredients compromised by unwanted pests. Rodents are infamous for contaminating food. Mouse and rat extermination, specifically our restaurant pest control services, will ensure your kitchen stays pristine.
Discovering a rat or mouse in your home or workplace can be unsettling. Recognising the early signs of an infestation is the key to tackling the problem before it escalates. Here are some clear indicators that you might need to consider rodent control in Auckland:
One of the most noticeable signs of a rodent problem is the presence of droppings. They're dark, skinny, and vary in size—mouse gifts are tiny, around 5mm, but rat gifts can be up to 15mm long. Spotting these means it's time to chat with a rodent pest control expert.
Rodents, especially in large numbers, leave a noticeable ammonia-like smell from their urine. If you notice this smell around your home or business, it's a big hint that you need some help from rodent control services.
Being nocturnal, rats and mice love a good nighttime exploration. These sounds come from rodents moving around, seeking food, or building nests.
As mentioned, rats can chew through just about anything, from wood to cables to plastic.
Rodents build nests for themselves out of paper and fabric. These hideouts are often tucked away under floorboards, in ceiling spaces, or behind appliances.
Keep an eye out for small pathways and entrance holes in your garden or along the pavement, as these could indicate rodent burrows.
