    What to Expect

    In order to eradicate rats from your property and prevent their return, our expert technicians go through a 5-step process that addresses infestations, indoor removal, and outside action. But what does that really mean?

    Let’s take a closer look at what you can expect with rat and rodent management.

    Inspection

    Technicians will do a thorough inspection of your home, identifying rat activity, active and potential areas of entry, and rat identification.

    Documentation & repair

    During the inspection, our experts look for potential structural damage, such as soiled insulation or damaged wiring, often caused by rats. All damage is documented, and our technicians will recommend repair through our pest repair services.

    Strategy

    Once the infestation is identified, our team creates a treatment protocol for rat extermination. Treatment options will be discussed with you, as well as when you can expect to see results.

    Prevention

    Once the rats are removed from inside the property, our experts will discuss prevention methods and treatment options, such as rodent control stations, to prevent future rodent infestations.

    Treatment

    Treatment for rats begins with sealing all interior entry locations and a 3-week “trap-out” program with regular visits from our experts to remove and dispose of all rats.

    Rat Infestations Pose
    Significant Health Risks

    Have you seen rats or mice within your home or business? Have you discovered and cleaned up rat feces? While seeing these rodents and traces of their presence is unsettling enough, the fact is their presence in your home or business can actually contribute to health complications. 

    Throughout history, rats have played a role in many major medical events, such as the Black Plague. These days, the presence of rats in your location can contribute to an increase in allergic reactions due to their dander and feces, but they can also spread harmful diseases such as Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome, Leptospirosis, Rat-Bite Fever, Tularemia, and Salmonellosis, either directly or by carrying other vectors such as fleas or ticks.

    Addressing a rat problem immediately after seeing your first rat is essential for your health and the team at Insight Pest Management is ready to help. Better yet, let our team come out and put preventative measures in place so you don’t have to worry about rats in the first place.

    Provide a Safe Environment
    for Your Family and Customers

    Rat remediation by our experts helps to ensure your family or your business is safe from the dangers a rat infestation can cause. 

    Once the rats are removed and entry points are secure, the team of experts helps to ensure that the damage done by rats is removed as well. 

    This includes the professional removal and replacement of insulation within the property that is contaminated by feces and nesting material. This is done with a specialized mounted vacuum that collects rat droppings and insulation material without spreading germs throughout your home or property. 

    The area is then sanitized and deodorized before new R-30/38 Rolled Batten insulation is replaced.

    Thank you Setton. He is very comforting and honest. Termites can a nightmare and when you meet good people who comforts you you get an assurance that you will get best treatment and help. Thank you for him and your company.

    Both Elvis and Nate were great. Job went smoothly

    5

    First impressions are important. Krista in the main office assured me that the consultation would not pressure me to take on something I wasn’t comfortable with. Elivis Hernandez was top notch – knowledgeable, curious, and kind. Everyone I had contact at with Insight Pest Management was a pleasure to work with! This is a high bar, especially since pest management is a notriously unpleasant task to perform.

    5

    Thank you Setton for your hard work, the technician was here for several hours, sealing up rodent entrances in attic and around my home. Thank you insight pest management

    5

    Thank you Setton for a great job. I highly recommend insight pest management services to anyone in need of a reliable pest control. Great experience overall thank you again. Appreciate you explaining the process and address all my concerns.

    Setton was such a huge impact to our quality in our home , there is a huge decrease in the insects around our home , he explained everything very thoroughly and was very punctual on time with our appointment

    Insight was amazing. Extremely accomodating, knowledgable, and professional. I highly recommend them!

    Called around for different quotes after recently moving out and finding the previous renters didn’t notify the landlord of a roach infestation. All the other places we called had ridiculous contracts and first time fees, along with bad reviews. We decided to go with Insight and we’re very happy with the results so far. The first visit we had Setton Wheat who was very good and helped ease our anxiety. After the first treatment we noticed a huge reduction in activity, then the second treatment we had Steven Lovio who was also very good. They both showed up on time and were very thorough, gave us good advice to manage the problem and helped us a ton by going above and beyond our expectations. Since the second treatment we feel like we can actually live more comfortably as there’s been almost no activity since. Especially with how severe our issue was we were worried we’d need to tent the house, but having these two experienced techs come out and do such a good job has kept us from needing to do that. I’ll definitely recommend using this company for your pest treatment and management as they guarantee their results and the reviews speak for themselves. You won’t get the same quality as you would with big companies like Terminex either, especially if you see the reviews for other companies like that. Thank you all so much for the help and I look forward to continuing business with you all!

    I am new with Insight Pest Management and so far, so great!😀

    This is a very well run and efficient company. I received a text prior to my technician coming out stating the time window he would be at the house. He was very punctual.

    After he left I received an e-mail with a detailed report stating the time he arrived and left, exactly what he did, suggestions of activity to look for, and the materials used in both the sprayer and rodent stations.

    I later called the office and spoke with Krista about my work order just to get clarification regarding what was stated in it. She was patient, kind and very helpful. If I could give more than 5 stars, I sure would!🥳

    Roaches !! UGH!!! the last thing you want in your home! but if you have them, the first person you want to call is Setton W. with Insight Pest Management. He took his time to investigate possible points of entry in every inch of my kitchen and bathrooms. He carefully moved everything out of the way and proceeded to treat the rooms, explaining to me what he was doing every step of the way. He gave me thorough instructions on what I should do after the treatment. He was conscientious, polite, and thorough. Thank you Sutton!

    Highly recommend insight and more specifically Elvis, he’s been great and now my home is insect free!

    Insight pest management was a great experience, they took care of all my pest issues I had and was very professional and punctual and knowledgeable, they educated me on the problem I had and took care of it immediately. Haven’t had any issues since. Krista and Raeanne in the office was amazing and will recommend insight pest management to everyone I know that needs a great pest control company.

    We just had a guy named Tim come by and seal up some places he determined mice were coming in our house. He was a terrific guy to have him do the job. He came by the previous day and did a free inspection and took his time to find the places that he thought should be sealed … I would not have found those places. The price for him sealing up those holes was really fair and I feel that we’re not gonna have much of a problem anymore. I definitely would recommend insight pest management. I picked them because of so many great reviews I saw and I guess this will just be another great review!🙂

    5

    Tim was a personable, knowledgeable and conscientious tech. We had a host of services including trapping, spraying and gopher control. These guys blow the doors off of the big national pest control franchises.

    5

    Elvis was awesome. So knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommend him!

    5

    We had an excellent experience with Insight Pest Management. They were quick, thorough, and professional in all of their communications. Their operations manager went above and beyond over the weekend for extra information we needed for inspection reports. They understand the demands of real estate transactions and will work with escrow companies. Would highly recommend.

    5

    I have been with Insight for five years and Krista in the front office always answers any questions I have big or small. You can tell she enjoys providing great customer service and we appreciate her outgoing attitude.

    Elvis was so helpful. Sprayed everywhere I requested. Flipped over all my furniture to spray underneath. Very nice and professional!

    I would like to thank the young man Setton for getting rid of my Spider and Insect problem. He was sent out by Insight and he was very thorough and professional. I will use Insight again should I need a pest service. We’ll worth my money!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    • What is the best way to get rid of rats?

      The recent passing of the California Ecosystems Protection Act bans the use of second-generation anticoagulants traditionally used for baiting and killing rodents such as rats.

      Now, eliminating rats from your home becomes a time-consuming and multiple-step process that includes trapping and removing rats, identifying and sealing potential entry points, addressing your outdoor property to include rat deterrents, and adding rat trapping stations.

      Unfortunately, rats are often not just an individual property problem, but a neighborhood problem, so the treatment options must address every possible attraction.

    • What attracts rats to my house?

      While a nice comfy shelter may attract some rats, the most common thing that makes your home attractive to rats is food. They are not picky eaters and will eat anything.

      Things like pet food, open garbage cans, barbeque grills, bird feeders, and fallen fruit from trees are enough to bring them onto your property and then they just follow the smell of food into your home.

    • How do I know if rats are gone?

      When there are no longer signs of a rat infestation, such as new signs of droppings, you can feel secure that the rats are no longer in your home.

      In order to make sure they stay away, you will need to continue with your outdoor rat management program, especially if there is a history of rats in your neighborhood.

    • How long will it take to get rid of rats?

      Rat removal and management can take at least three weeks, with longer periods necessary in the case of severe rat infestation.
