Rodent Prevention Tips Sydney – Expert Advice to Keep Rats & Mice Away
Keeping your property free from rats and mice is easier when you take a few simple preventive steps.
Here are our expert rodent prevention tips that every Sydney property owner should follow:
1. Seal All Entry Points
Rats and mice can squeeze through holes as small as a 10-cent coin.Inspect your walls, roof voids, under doors, and around plumbing pipes for any cracks or gaps.
Seal these with steel wool, caulk, or mesh to prevent rodents from entering.
2. Store Food Properly
Rodents are attracted to easy food sources.Always keep pantry goods, pet food, and grains in airtight containers, and clean up any spills immediately.
Avoid leaving food out overnight — especially fruit, bread, and pet bowls.
3. Maintain Cleanliness
Cluttered areas like garages, sheds, and basements provide perfect nesting spots.Regularly clean storage areas, vacuum floors, and keep garbage bins tightly sealed.
Outdoor rubbish bins should be stored away from walls and checked for gaps.
4. Eliminate Water Sources
Just like food, rodents need water to survive.Fix leaking taps, pipes, and outdoor hoses.
Avoid leaving standing water in trays, pet bowls, or pot plant bases.
5. Trim Vegetation & Garden Areas
Overgrown gardens, vines, and tree branches touching the roof provide easy access to your home.Trim back vegetation and store firewood at least 30 cm off the ground and away from walls.
6. Inspect Regularly
Even with precautions, rodents can still find a way in.Check for droppings, gnaw marks, and scratching sounds in walls or ceilings — especially during colder months.
7. Schedule Professional Rodent Inspections
A licensed Sydney rodent control specialist can identify early warning signs and provide tailored advice.Regular inspections and maintenance treatments are the most effective way to ensure long-term rodent prevention.

How to Spot Signs of a Rodent Infestation in Sydney
Rats and mice are sneaky, fast-breeding pests that can hide for weeks before being noticed. Recognizing the early signs of a rodent infestation helps you take control before they cause damage or spread disease.
1. Unusual Noises
If you hear scratching, gnawing, or scurrying sounds in walls or ceilings, it’s often a sign of rats or mice nesting nearby. Activity is usually loudest at night.
2. Droppings and Smear Marks
Fresh droppings are small, dark, and moist. Mice droppings are pointed at both ends, while rat droppings are larger and capsule-shaped. You might also notice greasy rub marks along skirting boards or baseboards where rodents travel.
3. Gnaw Marks and Damage
Rodents constantly chew to wear down their teeth. Look for gnaw marks on food packaging, wires, and furniture. Damaged electrical cables can cause serious fire risks.
4. Nests and Burrows
Rats and mice build nests using shredded paper, fabric, and insulation materials. Check behind appliances, in roof voids, garages, and cupboards.
5. Pet Behaviour Changes
Cats or dogs may become restless or fixated on certain areas if rodents are present. Pets often sense pests long before humans do.
If you notice any of these signs, contact Attack Pest Control Sydney for a professional inspection and same-day treatment.
Are Rodent Baits Safe for Pets?
One of the biggest concerns for pet owners is whether rodent control treatments are safe for cats and dogs. At Attack Pest Control Sydney, we use professional-grade products and strict safety measures to protect your family and pets.
Pet-Safe Rodent Bait Stations
All baits are placed in tamper-resistant safety boxes designed so only rodents can access them. These stations are secured in strategic locations, out of reach of children and animals.
Low-Toxicity, Professional Products
We only use baits approved for licensed pest technicians in NSW. They are effective against rodents but used in controlled quantities to minimise environmental impact.
Aftercare & Monitoring
Our technicians explain every safety step and can revisit to monitor bait consumption. Once dry, treated areas are safe for pets to return to.
What You Can Do
- Keep pets away from bait stations.
- Clean up pet food crumbs that attract rodents.
- Call us immediately if you suspect accidental ingestion — we can identify the bait type for your vet.
With our careful approach, you can enjoy a rodent-free and pet-safe home anywhere in Sydney.

- Mice: Smaller (up to 20 cm), thin long tail, pointed nose, and smoother fur.
Behaviour & Habitat

Rodents Life Cycle:
Rodents are warm-blooded mammals that, like humans, can be found throughout the world. They have oversized front teeth for gnawing and check teeth, which are adapted for chewing. Rodents chew on a variety of items available to them and cause great damage in and around homes.
Rodents tend to be rapid breeders. Some species breed year-round, and populations are maintained through constant reproduction. Because of the rodents’ body plan, they are capable of squeezing through spaces that appear to be much too small for them. All such holes should be sealed to prevent entry and reentry of rodents. A pest control professional should be contacted for assistance.
Rats and mice are both extremely destructive within agricultural communities. A number of species feed on seeds and grains. The feces and urine of some rodents may contaminate surfaces with which they come into contact.
Disease Information is not advisable to handle any wild rodent. They are equipped with large teeth and are capable of transmitting a variety of bacteria, viruses and diseases through their saliva, feces and urine.
If you locate a rodent within your home, it is best to contact a pest management professional for removal and identification. The presence of one rodent within a home could signal an infestation.
Keep all children and pets away from the rodent. If cornered, the rodent will bite to defend itself.
