DIY Rodent Control vs Professional Treatment
While store-bought traps and baits can sometimes catch a few rodents, they rarely solve the root cause of an infestation. Common DIY issues include:
Rodents avoiding traps due to incorrect placement.
Baits not strong enough for established infestations.
Missed entry points allowing pests to return.

Why Rodent Control Matters in Melbourne
Rats and mice aren’t just a nuisance—they pose serious health and property risks. These pests can:
Spread disease such as salmonella, leptospirosis, and hantavirus through droppings and urine.
Cause property damage by gnawing on electrical wiring, insulation, and timber, increasing fire hazards.
Contaminate food supplies with droppings and nesting materials.
Reproduce rapidly, turning a small problem into a major infestation within weeks.
Fast, professional action is the only way to protect your home and health.

FAQ – Rats & Mice Pest Control Melbourne
Q: How do I know if I have a rat or mouse problem?
A: Common signs include scratching noises in walls or ceilings, droppings around food storage areas, gnaw marks on furniture or wires, and unusual pet behaviour. Our licensed technicians can confirm an infestation with a professional inspection.
Q: Are rats and mice dangerous?
A: Yes. Rodents spread diseases such as salmonella, contaminate food, and cause fire hazards by chewing through electrical wiring. Quick, professional treatment is essential to protect your health and property.
Q: What’s the difference between rats and mice?
A: Mice are smaller (usually 7–10cm long) with fine features, while rats are larger (20cm+) with thicker tails. Both can cause significant damage and require professional control methods.
Q: Do DIY rodent traps and baits work?
A: While traps and supermarket baits may catch a few rodents, they rarely eliminate the full infestation. Without targeting entry points and nesting sites, rodents often return quickly.
Q: How does First Defence Pest Control treat rats and mice?
A: We use safe, targeted rodent baiting, trapping, and exclusion methods. Our approach not only removes current infestations but also prevents rodents from re-entering your home or business.
Q: Is rodent treatment safe for kids and pets?
A: Yes. We only use professional-grade products in locked bait stations placed out of reach of children and pets. Safety is always our top priority.
Q: How soon can I expect results?
A: In most cases, you’ll notice a major reduction within days. Complete elimination may take 1–2 weeks, depending on the infestation size and property conditions.
Q: Do you offer rodent prevention advice?
A: Absolutely. After treatment, we’ll provide tailored advice on sealing entry points, storing food securely, and reducing nesting opportunities to keep your property rodent-free long term.
