Eliminating Rats From the Garage

Eliminating Rats From the Garage

Rats have the very annoying tendency to end up in all the places that matter to you, and utterly spoil them, including your bedroom, bathroom, attic, and of course, the garage. Your garage is a place frequented by you on a daily basis, since your vehicles are over there, and in any case, it is a cool spot to hang out in and work on projects.

Clearly, the looming presence of rats in the garage is against your interests, and you would quite like to see them disappear. Let us see now how we can get rid of these pesky rodents from the garage. However, why do these critters end up here in the first place?

Why do rats invade your garage?

Rats don’t normally venture into places that they have no right to be in unless of course something is inviting and attractive in said place. If you throw leftover food in the garage (which is completely disgusting, by the way), the rats are sure to come. 

If the pipes are leaking, or puddles of water are present, the hungry critters are definitely going to be attracted. Furthermore, garages tend to be dark and have a lot of cramped places, which is heaven as far as our whiskery friends are concerned. 

Your garage is probably going to be pretty filthy as well, and that gives rats all the more reason to make an entry.

Clean up your garage

It is clear that dirty and smelly garages will attract more rats, so it is common sense that a squeaky clean garage is imperative in order to keep away these pesky critters truly.

Invest in a garbage can; throw all of your litter in it and be mindful of cleaning it on a weekly, if not daily, basis.

Don’t leave foodstuffs

Yes, you just bit on a burrito, but you realise that it’s not compatible with your taste buds, so you simply throw it away. Or perhaps the ice cream cone fell out of your hand, and you didn’t bother picking it up.

Either way, just know that you have basically dished out invitations to every rat in the vicinity. Keep leftover food in the refrigerator, or throw it in the garbage can.

Hire a rat exterminator

If your preventative techniques don’t work, you should definitely resort to calling rat professionals for help. These are licensed individuals who have years of experience and a ton of relevant knowledge under their belt, which will allow them to give you excellent advice and even handle the rat infestations that have brought your garage to its current predicament.
