Rat Removal in South Brisbane Apartments and Homes

South Brisbane sits just across the river from the city centre, so the crew we book reaches it in a short drive over the Victoria Bridge or the William Jolly Bridge. The suburb is now mostly apartment towers around Grey Street and the South Bank Parklands, with older timber houses and small unit blocks in the streets further back toward Boundary Street.

In apartment buildings, rat calls usually start in bin rooms, basement car parks and ground-floor units. Brown rats come up from drains and move through service ducts and gaps around pipes. In the older houses, roof rats climb palms and fences, then nest in the ceiling above the kitchen or bathroom.

With parkland, restaurants and the river all close by, rats have food and water year round. The crew checks where they are getting in and sets baits, traps and proofing to suit the building. Apartment residents can pass the crew's notes on to their body corporate.
