Pet-Safe Rodent Control: How We Keep Your Family and Pets Protected

Having rodents in your home is stressful enough—but when you have children or pets, the stakes are even higher. Traditional rodent treatments often rely on poisons and traps that can pose a serious threat to your furry companions. So how do you keep rats out without putting your family at risk?

At Rats Pest Control Perth, we specialize in Pet-Safe Rodent Control that’s just as effective as conventional methods—minus the danger. Whether you’re dealing with mice in the kitchen or rats in the roof, our Rodent Control Perth solutions are designed with your family’s safety in mind.

 The Risks of Traditional Rodent Control for Pets

Many over-the-counter and outdated pest control treatments include:

• Toxic rodenticides (poisons)
• Snap traps that can injure small pets
• Scented bait that attracts curious cats or dogs
• Loose bait pellets scattered in crawlspaces or backyards

These products can lead to accidental poisoning, injury, or illness if ingested or triggered by pets. That’s why safe handling and professional-grade alternatives are critical.

 What Is Pet-Safe Rodent Control?

Pet-safe rodent control involves minimizing exposure to any harmful substances while maximizing rodent removal efficiency. Our Perth team uses a multi-step approach that’s:

• Safe for pets & children 
• Environmentally responsible 
• Custom-tailored to your property 

We avoid using exposed poisons or hazardous bait in areas where pets roam. Instead, we focus on secure placement, physical exclusion, and non-toxic deterrents.

 Our Safe & Effective Rodent Control Methods

Here’s how we keep your home rodent-free—without compromising safety:

1. Tamper-Proof Bait Stations

We use lockable, heavy-duty bait stations that only allow rodents to enter. These boxes are:

• Tempered-resistant lockable rodent stations
• Anchored to walls or hidden areas
• Impossible for cats, dogs, or children to open

The bait inside is secured and inaccessible, reducing risk even further.

2. Pet-Friendly Trap Placement

In homes where traps are used, we:

• Place them in walls, roof voids, or subfloors
• Avoid open-floor setups that pose risk to pets
• Use snap traps only as a last resort—and never in pet-accessible areasWe also recommend sealing up entry points so rodents can’t get in again.

 What You Can Do to Keep Pets Safe During Treatment

While we do everything possible to minimize risk, you can help by:

• Keeping pets indoors during service
• Blocking access to treatment areas for 2 hours (if bait is used)
• Informing our technicians about all your pets—dogs, cats, birds, or exotic animals
• Monitoring pets for signs of illness and calling a vet if something seems wrong

We’re always happy to explain our products and answer any safety concerns during your service.
