What rat repellents work best in professional pest control?


In our rat treatments, we use 34 different products, and at most facilities we use a complex of 3-4 drugs and devices. Moreover, what works well in one room or area may turn out to be completely ineffective in another. Therefore, at each specific facility, we select one main anti-rat remedy, and two or three auxiliary ones, and sometimes we find that those same auxiliary ones actually work better and kill more rodents.

Rat in the simplest rat trap

Consequently, there is no universal remedy that is effective and safe always and everywhere. Especially if you need to destroy both rats and mice at the same time. You should always choose either a product or a device based on the conditions in a particular room.

However, it is precisely this arsenal that we have collected that allows us to choose the best rat repellent for a particular object and remove these pests in almost all situations.

Therefore, we will now describe our entire arsenal, dividing the funds from it into groups according to their types and principle of action. For each group, we will indicate the properties, advantages, disadvantages (including implicit ones discovered during application), and say in what cases we use these means. Let's go in order.

About rats

Many centuries ago, a rodent living in natural conditions expanded its range, getting as close as possible to human habitation. Having become synanthropic (that is, living in populated areas), rodents feel at ease in almost any building, barn, garage and structure. They are voracious and often omnivorous; with the onset of cold weather they prefer to move to heated rooms. The ideal option is an apartment that is warm and always has food. Possessing high fertility, they reproduce throughout the year, regardless of the season, due to which the population quickly increases.

Reasons for the appearance of rodents in the home

The rodent survives well in an urban environment (Moscow is no exception), settling next to a person who provides it with food. These small mammals have long chosen city landfills, basements, apartments, private houses, food warehouses, garbage chambers of apartment buildings with garbage chutes, back rooms of grocery stores and other premises with free access to leftover food and food products - vegetables, fruits, grains, bread and other delicacies , which they can handle.

The rodent enters the home through cracks, ventilation shafts and other openings accessible to them. In this case, the apartment can be located not only on the ground floor, but also above. The main bait for mice to enter and the reason for their establishment in human housing is free access to food, especially cereals, grains, and vegetables.

The most common causes of rodents:

  • unsanitary conditions;
  • presence of nearby landfills;
  • migration from neighboring buildings and structures;
  • food establishments and food stores located on the ground floor, where cleanliness is not maintained and sanitary and epidemiological measures (deratization and disinfection) are not carried out.

Signs of rats

  1. A characteristic pungent odor emanating from droppings and urine, as well as from dead individuals. The appearance of a musky stench, first of all, begins to be felt by pets that show increased activity near a rat's nest.
  2. Chewed food packaging. With its sharp teeth, the rodent chews not only cellophane and cardboard, but also plastic. If you notice damaged packaging, dispose of it along with its contents to avoid infection with infectious diseases. Check all cupboards and areas where food is stored within easy reach of rats.
  3. Traces of rat teeth. Chewed wires, furniture, wooden baseboards, books, cardboard boxes are clear evidence of the presence of rodents. The need to regularly chew on interior items arises in these mammals due to the fact that their teeth are constantly growing and need to be ground down. Even plastic water pipes can be chewed - this is how mice provide themselves with access to water.
  4. Detection of rat droppings. Rat feces pose a danger to humans because they spread bubonic plague, hantavirus, salmonella and other viral infections. The shape of the droppings resembles grains of rice, the size depends on the type of rodent.
  5. Live running individuals. These animals go to a secluded place to die, so their living representatives are most often seen. They are most active at night and when there are no people nearby.

If you notice at least one sign that a rodent has settled in your neighborhood, do not delay calling the specialists of the sanitary and epidemiological service. They will carry out professional pest control of the premises.

How to properly seal rat holes

A rat's teeth are constantly growing, so the rat is forced to chew something all its life in order to wear down its incisors. Rats are very powerful rodents that can even chew through concrete! In order to be sure to close the rat passage and get rid of rats from your facility forever, you need to add crushed glass or crushed shells to the concrete mixture, you can also add rodenticide. When trying to gnaw the exit in this place again, the rat will injure the gums and stop this thankless task. It is also effective to seal holes with a thick metal sheet. If you don’t take the above into account, you will end up with even more chewed through moves!

Harm from rats

In nature, wild rodents destroy agricultural crops. Often in contact with them, their urban relatives become carriers of infections. Other negative factors of the presence of rats near humans include:

  • destruction of stocks of vegetables and grain;
  • damage to property and building materials;
  • attacking people;
  • extermination of small domestic animals.

Pathogenic risks posed by a rodent

Rodents that pose a potential danger to humans include mice and rats. They are carriers of at least 20 types of infectious diseases. Among them:

  • leptospirosis;
  • salmonellosis;
  • listeriosis;
  • pseudotuberculosis;
  • tick-borne encephalitis;
  • rickettsiosis;
  • helminthic infestations;
  • tularemia;
  • yersiniosis;
  • tapeworms;
  • lymphocyte;
  • hemorrhagic (rat) fever;
  • tularemia;
  • choriomeningitis;
  • Bubonic plague;
  • hantavirus;
  • murine typhus;
  • Lyme disease.

Routes of infection

Infectious diseases are transmitted from rats to humans in several ways:

  • through water and food products with which the infected rodent has been in contact (fruits, vegetables, water);
  • by airborne dust, through the respiratory tract (in the process of inhalation in a room where mice live and contaminated air entering the lungs):
  • through bites;
  • as a result of contact with pests accompanying rats.

Foam for blocking burrows

In fact, such foams can be considered a type of poison that rats simply cannot help but eat. If over time they learn to avoid briquettes, pickled grain and crackers, then they are forced to gnaw the frozen foam that clogs their hole in order to get out. And of course, after that they die.

Interestingly, rats often die before they can chew their way out. We believe that this happens when one rodent uses a hole or a network of tunnels - in this case, the holes simply remain blocked and rats are no longer seen in the room.

In general, such foams are very safe, since no one except rats and mice will chew them. Therefore, they can be used in gardens and open areas, as well as in any premises that have earthen floors and holes in them - in basements, in garages without a concrete screed, hangars.


Rat holes that can be sealed in minutes

An important nuance: the foam works most reliably when all exits from one hole are blocked with it. Since rats usually create a whole network of underground tunnels, there can be many such exits, sometimes more than ten. Therefore, to reliably kill rodents with this product, all such exits must be found, which is sometimes difficult.

In our professional practice, we use foams in almost all industrial facilities and in many residential buildings. However, they are almost never the main remedies for rats, but complement others. As a main remedy, foam can be used where there are few rats, and the owners of the site or house can find all the exits of their rat holes.

Frequency of deratization

Sanitary rules 3.5.3.3223-14 indicate that preventive work should be carried out quarterly. If live rats, their droppings or traces of their presence are found, exterminatory deratization is carried out. Focal measures are regularly carried out in rodent habitats.

If you do not follow the recommendations of the rules, the population will decrease only for a while. Complete extermination is achieved only with a systematic approach and complete deratization work every six months.

Bait houses (containers) for rats


If your enterprise operates according to European standards, you need to purchase plastic bait containers for rats so that deratization work is carried out efficiently and accurately.
Each container is locked with a key, marked with the date of installation and the name of the rat poison that is located inside each house. Having bait containers for rats makes it much more convenient to work on site; the results of taking baits are easier to track, because they will not be demolished by machinery or swept away when cleaning the premises. They also contain drinking bowls for rodents, which can also be effectively used in the fight against rats. To protect a warehouse or production from rat attacks, it is necessary to install bait houses not only indoors, but also outside the building. For this purpose, there are metal anti-vandal houses, inside of which plastic containers with bait are placed. Such houses are not afraid of either rain or snow. They withstand any weather conditions, and the rat poison remains dry and fresh for a long time.

Deratization methods

Modern sanitary and epidemiological measures include several effective methods of controlling mice:

  • food pesticides (baits);
  • poisons in gaseous form;
  • spraying reagents;
  • hot fog;
  • mechanical traps (mousetraps);
  • electronic devices;
  • glue traps.

Traps are used when the pest distribution area is small. The chemical method involves the use of drugs, after trying which the rodent dies from poisoning. Toxic substances are deposited in the habitats of the population - in basements, attics, next to garbage containers.

To prepare hot fog, special generators are used that spray fine drops of liquid containing a toxic substance. The advantage of this method is that the poison penetrates into all cracks and passages, including mouse holes.

The gas method is rarely used in homes and only in extreme cases. This is due to its negative effects on human health. If it is necessary to spray gas, residents are asked to temporarily leave the residential building until it is completely ventilated.

Important! In the struggle for survival, the rodent adapts to living conditions; its body develops immunity to drugs used for a long time. In this regard, deratization, treatment and destruction of pests must be carried out by professionals.

Gases for aeration of premises

The gases used for aeration are the strongest, most effective and most dangerous remedy for rats. Treating a room with their help is called aeration, and this method of deratization, with proper preparation, allows you to destroy all the rats in literally an hour and a half. And not only rats - there are no live cockroaches, moths, bedbugs, or even ants left in the treated room, since the gas that fills the house kills all living things that are not protected by respirators.

The essence of such persecution is simple: the room is sealed and filled with poisonous gas. The gas penetrates absolutely into all cracks, cavities and rat holes, leading to poisoning of the rats in them. The room is infused in this way for about a day, then it is ventilated and washed, after which people can return to it.

However, this is simple only in essence. In fact, a huge, sometimes insurmountable difficulty is to really seal the room and prevent the gas from escaping outside. In any room there are always cracks and holes that are difficult to find and even more difficult to cover. Moreover, such holes can be the same rat holes. And the rats themselves, sensing a gas dangerous to them, can get out of the house through their own holes and escape from poisoning on the site, in the fresh air. To prevent this from happening, all the holes need to be found and sealed, but if this can be done, then it is easier, cheaper and safer to blow powder into the holes, foam the exits from them and forget about the rats.

As a result, aeration from rats is carried out extremely rarely : it costs many times more than rodent control by other methods, but at the same time it requires very complex preparation and strict adherence to safety measures. We carry it out when it is critical for clients that the rats are destroyed literally on the day of departure, and the cost and complexity of the work is of secondary importance for them.

These are the means we use in 99% of calls for pest control. In another 2% of situations, other methods can be used, usually improvised - flooding holes, killing with improvised tools, and others. For example, at one of the sites, an exterminator was digging up a rat hole in the garden with a shovel, and the owner’s dachshund caught the rat pups running out of it.

We very often receive questions from readers, or we are asked by phone about the possibility of using other anti-rat remedies and the effectiveness of these remedies. Now let us briefly mention all the means for which we have information.

Types of baits

The modern chemical industry offers to destroy rodents with different types of poisonous food baits. This:

  • Absolon grain from a Russian manufacturer based on bureaudifacoum;
  • grain bait Pestkiller - in the form of soft briquettes, which are laid out on substrates and in bait containers;
  • mummifying briquettes Mortorat based on the active substance brodifacoum (the peculiarity of this bait is that the poisoned rodent is mummified, and its corpse does not emit an unpleasant odor).
  • granular rodenticide bait Sturm;
  • Stoprodent based on a grain mixture (active ingredient – ​​brodifacoum);
  • hard wax briquettes Rodent;
  • other highly effective products.

Baits can be ready-to-use or in the form of additives that must first be mixed with food (minced meat, seasoned dough, soup, finely chopped boiled egg, milk or beer). In the latter case, the proportions recommended by the manufacturer should be followed. Depending on the chosen remedy, the death of adults and rat offspring occurs on days 4–12.

Deratization with the baits listed above is carried out by disinfectants, who select the most effective product for specific conditions. Correct selection of poisons and calculation of the required dose ensures maximum coverage of the population.

Important! The baits should not be touched with your hands, as the rodent may be frightened by the human smell and refuse the “treat”. When laying out preparations, rubber gloves are used. They completely eliminate contact of poisons with the skin.

Preparation for deratization measures

Before calling a pest control team to your home, you need to prepare your home. Owners must clean up and place food in an inaccessible place (for example, a glass container with a tight-fitting lid) so that the rodent does not have any sources of water and food. To dispose of waste, use a container with a sealed lid.

Warning. Since chemicals are toxic, it is worth taking care of the safety of pets.

The final stage

When the rodent is exterminated, the apartment must be cleaned - wet cleaning and disinfection are carried out. These activities are carried out in seals, a protective suit and a mask to avoid infection with infectious diseases.

How is disinfection performed?

A number of measures determined by specialists take into account the nature of the object, the survival rate of the pathogenic microbes being disinfected and the properties of the disinfectants used, taking into account the temperature conditions of use. Walls, floors, furniture, and all furnishings that could be infected are disinfected with special solutions. The procedure consists of two stages: mechanical cleaning to remove debris, dirt, rat feces and disinfection with disinfecting compounds. The amount of disinfectants depends on the size of the area being treated and the degree of contamination.

Mechanical method

If, after all, there is a rat in the cellar, you can get rid of it by installing special devices such as a trap or rat trap. The aroma of the bait placed in it will help attract a rodent to a mechanical device. It is enough for the animal to lightly touch it, and the trigger mechanism of the device will automatically work.

On a note!

A mousetrap is often used to catch mice. If you need to get rid of a pig or a gray rat, then it is preferable to use a rat trap.

You can also catch a rat in the cellar using a glue trap, the principle of which is based on the use of special glue against rodents:

  1. The adhesive is applied to the cardboard surface.
  2. In the middle part of the structure, bait is placed, which serves as a piece of bread, meat or lard, as well as seeds or nuts.
  3. The smell of the treat will attract the rodent, but once it steps on the sticky surface, it will no longer be able to free itself.

Choosing a company

Deratization and disinfection must be carried out by people who have special education and experience working with toxic substances. Since the apartment being treated is a person’s place of residence, methods and means are chosen that are absolutely safe for people, pets and indoor plants. This means that the work can only be entrusted to a specialized company specializing in getting rid of rodents. When choosing an organization, take into account its professional experience, working methods, guarantees, and cost of services.

How to quickly get rid of mice. Traps and mousetraps

They fight rodents such as rats, mice, shrews, moles in various ways, sometimes starting with humane ones. But they often end up radical. This is a forced defense, and therefore all means are good here.

There are mice in the apartment - how to get rid of them? Traditional methods will help - these are the well-known traps and mousetraps. A very old, win-win way to get rid of mice is to install a mousetrap. And preferably more than one.

Install only in areas where mouse droppings have been found. Don’t forget to pre-lubricate the trap with homemade sunflower oil to quickly attract thieves to the fishing spot.

Equip it with a seductive bait, anything will do. And don’t forget to periodically move them to different areas, change smells, and clean them on time. Traps can be in the form of special adhesive tapes, Chinese plastic, homemade, etc.

Cats and dogs

The classic solution to the problem is a cat. But this does not always happen, unfortunately. Because not all cats and even cats can catch mice. Many people completely lack the hunter's instinct.

Mice are afraid of cats, this is a known fact, but this will not make them smaller. Pets are often pampered by their owners and fed, and therefore they do not need to get their own food.

If you have a dog living in your house, then you need to get rid of mice as quickly as possible. Their immune system is not the same as that of cats. She does not always cope with diseases that mice carry.

Treating rat holes with rodenticides

If it is possible to find holes in an object occupied by rats, then first you need to understand whether they are residential or not. To do this, you need to take and crumple up a piece of newspaper, paper or bag and put it in the hole. If in the morning you see that the “plug” has been pushed out of the hole, then you are on the right track. One of the effective methods in the fight against rats is pollination of burrows with rodenticides. Rats are very clean animals. They lick their skin several times a day. While going back and forth into the hole, the rat involuntarily wraps poisonous powder around its paws and skin, after which it is forced to clean itself. Thus, rat poison enters the intestines and poisons the animal.
