Louisville Rat Removal

Hearing Scurrying In The Walls At Night?
Rats are among the most common - and most destructive - nuisance animals in Louisville and Southern Indiana. Norway rats and roof rats squeeze through openings as small as a quarter, then set up shop in wall voids, crawl spaces, basements and attics. Once inside, they gnaw constantly to keep their teeth worn down, chewing through wiring, plumbing, ductwork and structural wood. Rat-chewed wiring is one of the leading causes of unexplained house fires.
Rats also multiply fast. A single pair can produce dozens of offspring in a year, which means a small rat problem becomes a full infestation quickly. If you're hearing scurrying, finding droppings, or spotting gnaw marks, you need Louisville Critter Ridder!

When you call Louisville Critter Ridder, we start by inspecting your structure to find exactly where the rats are getting in - foundation gaps, utility penetrations, garage door corners, roof returns and vents are the usual suspects. We then remove the rats from the structure and monitor activity until it has completely stopped.
Unlike pest control companies that put you on an endless monthly baiting contract, our goal is to solve the problem permanently. Once the rats are out, we seal every entry point and potential entry point with rodent-proof materials so new rats can't move in behind them.
Our 10 Year Animal-Free Guarantee
Our exclusion work typically comes with a 10-year guarantee that no animal will re-enter the structure from an entry point we closed. That's the difference between wildlife exclusion done right and a bait-box subscription that never ends.
Rat Damage Cleanup & Sanitization
Rats contaminate everything they touch. Their droppings and urine can carry pathogens, and their nesting destroys insulation. After removal, our team can clean and sanitize affected areas, replace soiled insulation, and repair the damage the rats left behind - all quoted upfront at a flat rate. Call us 24/7 for a free quote over the phone.
Rat Hotspots In Louisville
Norway rats concentrate in Louisville's older, denser neighborhoods - Portland, Germantown, Old Louisville and the downtown restaurant corridors - where aging sewer infrastructure, alley dumpsters and older foundations give them everything they need. Construction and demolition projects reliably displace rats into surrounding blocks, something we see every time a major project breaks ground. Cold Kentucky winters drive rats indoors hard in October and November, making fall the critical season for getting exclusion work done before they move in.
