RODENTS
Safe, Professional Rat and Mouse Removal for Homes & Businesses
Rodents are more than just a nuisance they can cause damage, contaminate food, and create health risks if left untreated. At Gladiator Pest Control, we provide targeted rodent control services across Sydney, using safe, effective methods that solve the problem at the source. Whether you’ve heard scratching in the walls, found droppings in the kitchen or spotted a rat outside, we’re here to help calmly, professionally, and without fuss.
Why Do I Have Rodents in My Home or Business?
Rats and mice are attracted to warmth, shelter and food — especially in cooler months. Common signs of a rodent problem include:
- Scratching noises in walls, ceilings or under floors
- Droppings in kitchens, pantries or storage areas
- Chewed wiring, food packaging or furniture
- A musty or urine-like smell in enclosed spaces
- Rodents are good at hiding, so even a small sign can mean more are nearby.
Have been using Matt and his team for years, and never disappointed. He was very careful and understanding of our needs as we have a new kitten and wanted to be careful even though the spray is pet and child friendly. Highly recommend the service.

How to Get Rid of Rats and Mice
DIY traps may catch one or two, but they rarely fix the full problem. Rodents breed quickly and often nest in hard-to-reach places — inside roof cavities, behind appliances or under floorboards.
At Gladiator, we use a strategic mix of baits, traps and exclusion techniques to remove rodents completely and prevent them from returning. Our treatments are discreet, humane where possible, and always tailored to your space.
FAQs
-
Rodents in the ceiling are often heard before they’re seen light scratching, scurrying, or chewing sounds, especially at night. The most effective way to remove them is to combine targeted baiting and exclusion.
Our technicians locate how the rodents are entering, place tamper-resistant baits in safe, concealed areas, and block access points to stop new ones getting in. Once the existing rodents are removed, sealing gaps and trimming back tree branches can help prevent a repeat problem.
-
Yes. When handled professionally. We use lockable bait stations that are designed so children, pets, and wildlife can’t access the bait inside.
Every product we use is Australian-approved and applied in strict accordance with safety guidelines. If you have pets that roam freely indoors or outdoors, we’ll discuss this before treatment and tailor our approach to make sure your home stays completely safe.
-
Absolutely. Once rodents have been cleared, we can set up an ongoing protection plan to keep them from returning especially through the cooler months when they seek warmth and shelter.
Our prevention service includes regular inspections, bait station checks, and recommendations on proofing your home or business. It’s a simple, hands-off way to stay protected year-round and avoid another surprise in the ceiling.
