Rat Removal in Glennville: Who We Are

Rat Removal in Glennville is the work of finding where rats are living, removing them, and closing the building so they stay out. We have run that play in Glennville since 2016. Glennville sits in Tattnall County, surrounded by pecan groves, row crops, and poultry operations, and that farmland pushes roof rats and Norway rats toward town every fall when the fields get cut and the weather turns. We see it in the older homes near the downtown commercial district, in rentals along Highway 301, and in the brick ranches off Barnard Street. Our technicians carry Victor snap traps, Havahart live traps, Catchmaster glue boards, and JT Eaton bait stations on every truck, plus inspection mirrors and respirators for attic and crawl space work. We hold a Georgia Pest Control License and follow NPMA and QualityPro standards on every job. If you have heard scratching above the ceiling at 2 a.m. or found droppings behind the refrigerator, we can be at your door the same day.

Glennville is a small town with a big rat problem, and it is not the town's fault. The surrounding agricultural land gives rats year-round food and burrow space, and the older housing stock gives them easy entry. We serve Glennville because the nearest large pest control companies treat it as a drive-by stop on the way to Savannah or Statesboro. We do not. Our trucks run Glennville routes weekly, so we know which streets flood after a heavy rain, which crawl spaces stay damp all summer, and which neighborhoods see the first roof rat activity each October. That local knowledge cuts inspection time and gets your problem solved faster.

Rat Removal Services Available in Glennville

Glennville rat calls fall into a few patterns: roof rats in the attic, Norway rats in the crawl space, and rats in the walls of older downtown homes. We handle all of them, plus the cleanup and repair work that follows. If you are searching for rat removal near me in Glennville, this is the full list of what we do. Every service starts with a full inspection, and every job ends with a written report and a warranty on our exclusion work.

01
␁

Attic Rat Removal

Attic rat removal in Glennville usually means roof rats that came in through a gable vent or a gap where the roofline meets the wall. We inspect with flashlights and mirrors, set snap traps and bait stations along the joists, and remove the rats before we touch the insulation. Most Glennville attics take two to four visits over 10 to 14 days to clear.

↯

Crawl-Space Rat Removal

Crawl-space rat removal in Glennville is common in the pier-and-beam homes near downtown and in rentals along Highway 301. Norway rats burrow under the vapor barrier and nest near plumbing penetrations. We seal the foundation vents with hardware cloth, set traps along the sill plate, and remove burrows. Damp crawl spaces here stay active year-round, so we check the moisture level too.

Roof Rat Removal

Roof rats are the acrobats of the rat world, and Glennville's pecan trees and oaks give them a highway onto your roof. They enter through gaps as small as a quarter. We trim back overhanging branches where the customer agrees, seal roof-to-wall junctions with copper mesh, and trap the rats inside the attic. Most roof rat jobs in Glennville clear in under two weeks.

◒

Rat Exclusion and Entry-Point Sealing

Exclusion is the part most companies skip. We seal every entry point we find with copper mesh, steel wool, hardware cloth, and exclusion sealant, then verify the seal with a second inspection. On Glennville homes, the usual culprits are foundation vents, dryer vents, plumbing penetrations, and gaps under garage doors. This is the only step that keeps rats from coming back next season.

Emergency Rat Removal

If you have a rat in the kitchen at midnight or a dead rat in a wall that is stinking up the house, call us. We run 24/7 emergency rat removal for Glennville and can usually be on-site within a few hours. Our techs carry respirators, protective suits, and sanitation sprayers so we can handle the problem the same night you call.

Rat Damage Cleanup and Sanitation

Rat droppings, urine, and nesting material carry disease, and the smell does not go away on its own. We remove contaminated insulation, spray disinfectant and deodorizer on every affected surface, and replace insulation where needed. In Glennville attics, we often find tunnels chewed through the vapor barrier and soiled insulation that has to come out.

See details ↓
07
␁

Dead Rat Removal

A dead rat in a wall or attic can stink for weeks. We locate the carcass with inspection mirrors and flashlights, remove it in a sealed bag, and treat the area with disinfectant and deodorizer. Glennville homes with older plaster walls sometimes need a small access cut, which we patch before we leave. Same-day service is usually available.

See details ↓
08
↯

Rat Burrow Removal

Norway rats burrow in the ground along foundations, under sheds, and in crawl spaces. In Glennville, the sandy soil around older homes makes burrowing easy. We locate the burrows, remove the rats, collapse and fill the tunnels, and seal the foundation so new burrows do not appear. This is often paired with crawl-space exclusion work.

See details ↓
09
≈

Rat Extermination

When trapping alone will not clear a heavy infestation, we use a combination of snap traps, bait stations, and rodenticide placed in tamper-resistant stations. All rodenticide work is done by an EPA pesticide applicator certified technician and follows Georgia structural pest control rules. We keep bait away from kids and pets, and we document every placement.

◒

Rat Trapping

Trapping is the safest way to remove rats from a home with pets or small children. We use Victor snap traps and Havahart live traps, placed along walls and in runways where rats travel. Traps are checked every 24 to 48 hours. In Glennville, most residential trapping jobs need two to three service visits before the house is clear.

Who we serve in Glennville

Two very different jobs. One local crew.

For homes

Residential Rat Removal in Glennville

Most of our Glennville work is residential. The town has a mix of older pier-and-beam homes near downtown, brick ranches along Barnard Street, rentals along Highway 301, and farmhouses on the outskirts. Each type has its own rat problem. Older homes have more entry points. Rentals often have crawl-space issues that go unreported. Farmhouses deal with both house and outbuilding pressure. We handle all of it with the same process: inspect, trap, seal, clean, verify. If you have kids or pets, we use snap traps and live traps instead of rodenticide inside the home.

01Attic and crawl-space inspections

Every Glennville residential job starts with a full inspection of the attic, crawl space, garage, and exterior perimeter. We photograph what we find and show you the entry points before we set a single trap. This is how you know the quote is based on your house, not a guess.

02Trapping and removal

We use Victor snap traps and Havahart live traps placed along the runways rats actually use. Traps are checked every 24 to 48 hours. For Glennville homes with pets or small children, we keep rodenticide out of the living space and use tamper-resistant stations only where needed.

03Entry-point sealing and exclusion

We seal foundation vents, gable vents, plumbing penetrations, dryer vents, and gaps under garage doors with copper mesh, steel wool, hardware cloth, and exclusion sealant. This is the step that keeps rats from coming back next fall when the farmland migration starts.

04Sanitation and insulation repair

We remove contaminated insulation, spray disinfectant and deodorizer on affected surfaces, and replace insulation where needed. In Glennville attics, we often find tunnels chewed through the vapor barrier and soiled sections that have to come out to remove the health hazard.

  • A written scope and fixed price before we start, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
  • Snap traps and live traps inside the home when you have pets or small children.
  • A follow-up inspection after exclusion work to verify every entry point is sealed.

For businesses

Commercial Rat Removal in Glennville

Commercial rat problems in Glennville tend to cluster along the Highway 301 corridor and downtown, where older buildings, shared walls, and dumpsters create steady pressure. Restaurants, retail shops, warehouses, and rental property managers all need the same thing: a discreet, documented service that keeps rats out of the building and keeps the health inspector satisfied. We schedule commercial work around your business hours, use tamper-resistant bait stations, and provide the documentation you need. If you are looking for commercial rat control near me in Glennville, this is what we offer.

  • Restaurants and food service
  • Retail and convenience stores
  • Warehouses and distribution
  • Rental property management
  • Offices and professional buildings
01Discreet scheduling around business hours

We work before opening, after closing, or during slow periods so your customers never see a trap or a technician. For restaurants and retail along Highway 301, we schedule early morning service before the doors open.

02Tamper-resistant bait stations and documentation

All rodenticide goes in tamper-resistant stations placed out of customer reach. We document every placement, every trap check, and every exclusion repair, so you have a paper trail for health inspections and corporate audits.

03Exclusion work built for commercial buildings

Commercial buildings have more entry points than homes: loading docks, dumpster pads, utility penetrations, and shared walls. We seal all of them with copper mesh, hardware cloth, and exclusion sealant, and we verify the seal on a follow-up visit.

04Quarterly monitoring for ongoing coverage

For Glennville businesses with steady rat pressure, we offer quarterly monitoring that includes inspections, trap checks, and bait station service. It costs less than emergency calls and keeps your building off the health inspector's list.

Attic Rat Removal in Glennville

Attic Rat Removal in Glennville

Attic rat removal in Glennville targets the warm, insulated lofts common in older downtown homes and newer builds near Wiregrass Trail. Our crew inspects gable vents, soffits, and HVAC chases where rats enter, then removes the colony and sanitizes the space. We know Glennville attics bake in summer and stay mild in winter, making them year-round rat magnets.

a

Signs of Attic Infestation

Glennville homeowners often hear scratching above bedrooms in the pre-dawn hours. Droppings along joists, greasy rub marks on rafters, and shredded insulation near the HVAC platform are classic clues. In historic Glennville bungalows, rats travel wall cavities to reach attic spaces. We document every sign before treatment.

b

Safe Attic Colony Removal

We set secured traps and monitoring stations along known runways, avoiding loose poison that can harm pets. For Glennville attics with blown-in insulation, we use extension poles and headlamps to reach tight corners. Removal typically takes three to seven days depending on colony size and access.

c

Attic Sanitation and Sealing

After removal, we vacuum droppings, apply disinfectant, and replace contaminated insulation. We then seal entry points with hardware cloth and foam, focusing on roof returns and vent gaps common in Glennville's older housing stock. This prevents re-infestation and removes lingering odors.

02
Crawl-Space Rat Removal in Glennville

Crawl-Space Rat Removal in Glennville

Crawl-space rat removal in Glennville addresses the damp, low foundations found under many ranch-style homes near the Glennville Recreation Department. Rats nest in pier-and-beam voids, using plumbing penetrations and foundation vents as doorways. Our team removes the colony, treats the soil, and closes access points to stop the cycle.

a

Why Crawl Spaces Attract Rats

Glennville's humid climate keeps crawl spaces dark and moist, ideal for rats seeking shelter. Homes near the Canoochee River floodplain have higher soil moisture, drawing rodents under floorboards. We inspect vapor barriers, ductwork, and pier gaps to locate nesting zones and travel paths.

b

Removal in Tight Voids

Crawl spaces under Glennville's older mill houses can be as low as 18 inches. We use low-profile gear and crawl-specific traps to work safely in these confines. Bait stations are anchored to prevent movement, and we check them daily until activity stops.

c

Moisture and Exclusion Fixes

After removal, we recommend repairing torn vapor barriers and sealing foundation vents with corrosion-resistant mesh. In Glennville's sandy soil, rats burrow under footings, so we pack and seal those gaps. These steps keep crawl spaces dry and rat-free long term.

03
Roof Rat Removal in Glennville

Roof Rat Removal in Glennville

Roof rat removal in Glennville focuses on the agile climbers that scale brick chimneys and tree limbs to reach gutters and eaves. These rats nest in soffits and between roof decking, especially in two-story homes near South Main Street. We remove them and seal the high access points they rely on.

a

Roof Rat Behavior in Glennville

Roof rats in Glennville prefer elevated travel, using power lines and oak branches to move between structures. They enter through gaps as small as a quarter. We inspect rooflines, fascia boards, and chimney flashing for rub marks and droppings that reveal their routes.

b

High-Access Removal Tactics

We place traps on roof surfaces and in attic voids near entry points, using safety harnesses on steep pitches. Glennville's frequent afternoon storms can delay work, so we schedule around weather windows. Removal usually completes within a week with daily monitoring.

c

Sealing Roofline Entries

After removal, we trim tree limbs back from the roof and install metal flashing over gaps. In Glennville's older neighborhoods, we repair damaged soffit vents and seal chimney gaps with rodent-proof mesh. This stops roof rats from returning to their favorite highways.

04
Rat Exclusion and Entry-Point Sealing in Glennville

Rat Exclusion and Entry-Point Sealing in Glennville

Rat exclusion and entry-point sealing in Glennville stops rodents before they get inside. We inspect foundations, utility penetrations, and rooflines of homes from the Tattnall County Courthouse area to the newer subdivisions off Highway 301. Our crew seals gaps with durable materials, denying rats the openings they exploit.

a

Common Entry Points Found

Glennville homes often have gaps around plumbing stacks, dryer vents, and garage door corners. Older houses near downtown may have cracked foundation sills. We map every opening larger than a quarter inch and prioritize the ones showing current rat activity.

b

Materials That Last

We use copper mesh, hardware cloth, and concrete patch rather than spray foam alone, which rats chew through. In Glennville's humid climate, we choose corrosion-resistant materials for crawl-space and exterior applications. Every seal is tested for durability and fit.

c

Exclusion After Removal

Exclusion works best after rats are removed, so we coordinate with trapping services. For Glennville properties with multiple structures, we seal sheds and garages too. A follow-up inspection confirms no new openings have appeared.

05
Emergency Rat Removal in Glennville

Emergency Rat Removal in Glennville

Emergency rat removal in Glennville responds when rats appear in kitchens, nurseries, or businesses along Barnard Street. We prioritize same-day dispatch for active infestations that pose health or safety risks. Our team arrives prepared to trap, remove, and secure the immediate area.

a

When to Call Emergency

Call us if you see a rat in living spaces, find droppings in food prep areas, or hear frantic scratching in walls at night. Glennville restaurants and grocery stores need fast action to protect inspections and inventory. We treat these calls as top priority.

b

Rapid Response Protocol

Our Glennville emergency crew carries pre-loaded traps and flashlights for immediate deployment. We isolate the affected room, set traps along walls, and advise on temporary food storage. Most emergency visits stabilize the situation within two hours of arrival.

c

Follow-Up and Prevention

After the emergency, we schedule a full inspection to find entry points and nesting sites. Glennville's older commercial buildings often have shared wall voids that need sealing. We provide a written plan to prevent repeat emergencies.

06
Rat Damage Cleanup and Sanitation in Glennville

Rat Damage Cleanup and Sanitation in Glennville

Rat damage cleanup and sanitation in Glennville restores spaces contaminated by droppings, urine, and gnawed materials. We serve homes and businesses from the Glennville Historic District to the industrial park. Our process removes biohazards, neutralizes odors, and documents damage for insurance claims.

a

Assessing Contamination Levels

We inspect attics, crawl spaces, and wall voids for droppings, nesting debris, and chewed wiring. Glennville's older homes may have years of accumulated contamination. We categorize affected areas by severity to plan safe removal and disinfection.

b

Safe Removal of Biohazards

Technicians wear respirators and protective suits while bagging contaminated insulation and debris. We use HEPA vacuums to capture fine particles before applying hospital-grade disinfectant. In Glennville's humid climate, we also treat for mold that follows rat urine.

c

Odor Neutralization and Repair

After cleaning, we fog affected voids with odor-neutralizing agents and replace damaged insulation. For Glennville properties with chewed ductwork or wiring, we coordinate repairs with licensed contractors. A final inspection confirms the space is clean and safe.

07
Dead Rat Removal in Glennville

Dead Rat Removal in Glennville

Dead rat removal in Glennville eliminates the source of foul odors that can linger in walls and attics for weeks. We locate carcasses using experience and inspection tools, then remove and disinfect the area. Glennville's warm months accelerate decomposition, making fast service essential.

a

Finding Hidden Carcasses

Dead rats in Glennville often end up in wall voids, attic insulation, or beneath appliances. We trace odor patterns and use borescopes to pinpoint remains without unnecessary demolition. In older homes, carcasses may be behind plaster or under subflooring.

b

Safe Removal and Disposal

We remove carcasses with sealed bags and disinfect the surrounding area to prevent secondary pests. Glennville's humidity can cause rapid mold growth on contaminated surfaces. We treat those areas with antimicrobial agents before closing access points.

c

Odor Control After Removal

After removal, we fog the void with odor neutralizers and verify airflow. For Glennville homes with persistent smells, we inspect adjacent voids for additional carcasses. A follow-up check ensures the odor source is fully eliminated.

08
Rat Burrow Removal in Glennville

Rat Burrow Removal in Glennville

Rat burrow removal in Glennville targets the underground tunnels rats dig in yards, gardens, and under sheds. Glennville's sandy soil makes burrowing easy, especially near the Canoochee River and in older neighborhoods with mature landscaping. We locate, treat, and collapse burrows to eliminate nesting sites.

a

Identifying Active Burrows

Active burrows in Glennville have fresh dirt piles, worn paths, and droppings at entrances. We probe tunnel openings and use tracking dust to confirm rat traffic. Burrows often connect to foundation gaps or shed perimeters, so we map the full system.

b

Treating and Collapsing Tunnels

We apply rodenticide or traps at burrow entrances, following safety guidelines for pets and wildlife. Once activity stops, we collapse tunnels and pack soil to prevent reuse. In Glennville's sandy loam, we add gravel to discourage re-digging.

c

Preventing New Burrows

After removal, we recommend removing debris piles and trimming ground cover near foundations. Glennville properties with bird feeders or compost bins attract rats, so we advise relocation. We also seal foundation gaps that connect to burrow systems.

09
Rat Extermination in Glennville

Rat Extermination in Glennville

Rat extermination in Glennville uses targeted methods to eliminate entire colonies, not just visible rodents. We serve homes and businesses from downtown to the Highway 301 corridor. Our approach combines trapping, baiting, and exclusion to deliver lasting results in Glennville's varied building stock.

a

Integrated Extermination Plan

We start with a full inspection to identify species, entry points, and food sources. Glennville's mix of older homes and new construction requires flexible strategies. We choose traps, bait stations, or a combination based on infestation severity and safety concerns.

b

Safe Product Application

All rodenticides we use are placed in tamper-resistant stations to protect pets and children. In Glennville's humid climate, we select formulations that resist moisture degradation. Technicians document every placement and monitor consumption daily.

c

Verifying Colony Elimination

We continue monitoring until no new activity appears for several days. Glennville customers receive a written report of findings and treatments. If rats persist, we adjust the plan and return at no extra charge within the service window.

10
Rat Trapping in Glennville

Rat Trapping in Glennville

Rat trapping in Glennville removes rodents without relying on poison, making it ideal for homes with pets or children. We set professional-grade traps along runways in attics, crawl spaces, and kitchens. Glennville's older homes have abundant wall voids where traps must be placed precisely.

a

Trap Placement Strategy

We identify rat runways by droppings, rub marks, and gnawed materials. In Glennville's pier-and-beam homes, traps go under floorboards and along foundation sills. Attic traps are secured to joists to prevent movement. Each trap is checked daily.

b

Types of Traps Used

We use snap traps, live-catch traps, and electronic traps depending on the situation. For Glennville customers concerned about disposal, live traps allow relocation. Electronic traps offer quick, humane results in high-traffic areas. We explain options before starting.

c

Monitoring and Removal

Trapping requires patience and daily monitoring. We record captures and adjust placement until activity stops. Glennville's warm climate means rats breed year-round, so we watch for new signs. Once trapping is complete, we recommend exclusion to prevent re-entry.

How We Execute Rat Removal in Glennville

Rat removal in Glennville runs on a simple schedule: inspect, trap, seal, clean, verify. On day one we do a full inspection of the attic, crawl space, garage, and exterior perimeter. We look for droppings, rub marks, bur

01

Pier-and-beam foundations on older downtown homes

Crawl spaces under these homes are open, damp, and easy for Norway rats to enter. Standard attic-only treatments miss the problem entirely.

How we handle it We inspect the crawl space on every Glennville job, seal foundation vents with hardware cloth, and set traps along the sill plate and plumbing penetrations. We also check the vapor barrier for burrows and replace damaged sections.

02

Pecan groves and farmland pushing rats into town

When the fields are cut and the pecans are harvested in fall, rats move from the groves into Glennville neighborhoods looking for food and shelter.

How we handle it We schedule extra Glennville routes in October and November and prioritize exclusion work during that window. Sealing entry points before the fall push is the single best way to keep rats out of your house all winter.

03

Hot, humid summers driving rats into crawl spaces

Glennville summers push rats underground for cooler air. That means more crawl-space activity and more dead-rat odor calls in July and August.

How we handle it We use respirators and protective suits for crawl-space work, set traps in the coolest, dampest corners first, and run deodorizer and disinfectant after removal. We also check insulation for moisture damage while we are under there.

These are real jobs from the past year in and around Glennville. We are sharing them because they show what the work actually looks like, what it costs, and how long it takes. Names and exact addresses are withheld, but the neighborhoods and results are accurate.

01 Downtown Glennville
The problem
A homeowner near downtown Glennville heard scratching in the attic every night for two weeks and found droppings on top of the insulation.
What we did
We inspected the attic and found roof rat activity along the north joists, with an entry point at a gable vent. We set Victor snap traps along the runways, sealed the gable vent with copper mesh and exclusion sealant, and removed contaminated insulation from a 40-square-foot section.
The result
Activity stopped in nine days after three service visits. The homeowner has had no new signs in eight months, and the attic passed a follow-up inspection.
02 Highway 301 corridor
The problem
A rental property on the Highway 301 corridor had Norway rats in the crawl space and a persistent odor that tenants complained about.
What we did
We sealed the foundation vents with hardware cloth, set JT Eaton bait stations and snap traps along the sill plate, removed two burrows, and ran disinfectant and deodorizer on the affected soil and vapor barrier. We replaced a 60-square-foot section of damaged vapor barrier.
The result
The crawl space was clear after 12 days. The odor was gone within a week of sanitation, and the property manager signed us up for quarterly monitoring.
03 Glennville outskirts, Tattnall County
The problem
A farmhouse on the outskirts of Glennville had rats in the attic and in a detached metal shop, with burrows along the foundation.
What we did
We treated both buildings on the same visit. In the attic we set snap traps and sealed two roof-to-wall gaps with copper mesh and steel wool. In the shop we used bait stations and collapsed the foundation burrows, then sealed the base with hardware cloth.
The result
Both buildings were clear in 14 days. The owner reported no new droppings at the 30-day follow-up and no new burrows after the fall harvest.

Common Rat Problems in Glennville

Glennville has a specific set of conditions that make rat problems worse than in many Georgia towns. The climate is hot and humid for most of the year, the housing stock includes a lot of older pier-and-beam homes, and the surrounding farmland keeps a steady rat population close to town. Here are the four problems we see most often.

01

Roof rats entering through gable vents and roof gaps

Why it happens Glennville's mature pecan and oak trees give roof rats a direct route to the roofline. Once they are on the roof, a quarter-inch gap at a gable vent or roof-to-wall junction is an open door. Older homes downtown have more of these gaps than newer construction.

Our approach We inspect the entire roofline, seal every gap with copper mesh and exclusion sealant, and trap the rats inside the attic. We also trim back overhanging branches where the homeowner agrees, which removes the highway they are using.

02

Norway rats burrowing under pier-and-beam foundations

Why it happens Downtown Glennville has a lot of older homes on pier-and-beam foundations. The crawl spaces are open, damp, and easy to dig into. Norway rats burrow under the foundation and nest near plumbing penetrations where it is warm and wet.

Our approach We seal foundation vents with hardware cloth, set traps along the sill plate, collapse and fill burrows, and check the vapor barrier for damage. We also look for plumbing leaks, because a wet crawl space attracts rats year-round.

03

Rats in wall voids of older downtown buildings

Why it happens Older commercial and residential buildings downtown have wall cavities that connect to attics and crawl spaces. Rats move vertically through these voids and are hard to reach with standard traps. The problem is worse in buildings with shared walls.

Our approach We use inspection mirrors and flashlights to map the wall voids, then set traps at the top and bottom access points. We seal the entry points at the exterior so new rats cannot get in, and we treat the void with disinfectant and deodorizer after removal.

04

Fall rat migration from farmland into town

Why it happens When the pecan harvest and row crop harvest finish in October and November, rats lose their field food supply and move toward town. Glennville sits right in the middle of that farmland, so the fall push is real and predictable.

Our approach We schedule extra Glennville routes in the fall and prioritize exclusion work before the migration peaks. Sealing entry points in September and October is the single best way to keep your house off the rats' winter list.

Glennville through the year

How Seasons Affect Rat Removal in Glennville

Glennville does not get a hard freeze, so rats stay active all year. That said, the type of call we get changes with the season. Here is what to expect month by month, and what you can do to stay ahead of it.

❊

Spring

Spring is breeding season for both roof rats and Norway rats. Activity picks up in attics and crawl spaces as females look for safe nesting spots. We see more calls about scratching noises in April and May than any other spring month.

Tip Get an inspection in March or early April before the first litter is born. Sealing entry points now prevents a summer of noise and damage.

☀

Summer

Glennville summers are hot and humid, which pushes rats into crawl spaces for cooler air. Dead rat odor calls spike in July and August because rats die in wall voids and attics where the heat accelerates decomposition.

Tip If you smell something musty or ammonia-like in a closet or crawl space, call us. Dead rat removal in summer is a same-day priority because the odor gets worse fast.

❄

Fall

This is the busiest season for rat removal in Glennville. The pecan and row crop harvest pushes rats out of the fields and into town. Roof rat activity in attics peaks in October and November, and crawl-space burrows appear along foundations.

Tip Schedule exclusion work in September or early October, before the migration starts. It is the highest-value thing you can do all year.

❅

Winter

Glennville winters are mild, so rats do not die off. They stay active and often move deeper into wall voids and attics for warmth. We see a lot of rat damage to insulation in January and February because rats tunnel through it for nesting material.

Tip Check your attic insulation for tunnels or soiled sections. If you find them, get an inspection before spring breeding season starts.
