Call (209) 563-1650Frequently asked questions
Why am I seeing rats in my Joliet yard?
Norway rats burrow near reliable food and shelter — under sheds and decks, along fences, near pet food or bird feeders, and in cluttered alleys. Removing those draws is part of the control plan.
Do rats come up through toilets?
It is uncommon but possible for rats to travel sewer lines, which is one reason persistent rat issues sometimes need a drain inspection alongside standard trapping and exclusion.
Who handles rats on a shared alley?
Shared-alley rat problems often need neighboring properties to act together, since burrows cross lot lines. Treating one yard while the source stays next door usually leads to re-infestation.
