The roof space is where most rat activity in Albany Creek plays out, since it gives rats a dry, quiet spot close to food sources in the kitchen and yard below. Scratching after dark, grease marks along the beams or droppings near the manhole are the usual first signs a household in Albany Creek notices.
The crew climbs into the roof space with a torch and checks along the beams, around the water tank if there is one, and near any stored boxes or insulation for signs of a nest. Traps or bait are placed along the paths the rats are using, worked out from the droppings and grease marks rather than guessed at from the ground. The crew also checks the manhole cover and roof hatch for gaps around the frame, since a loose-fitting cover is an entry point that is easy to miss from inside the house.
Insulation that has been chewed through or soiled can be pointed out at the same visit, along with any wiring that shows gnaw marks, since both are worth having looked at once the rats are cleared. The crew will also flag the spot the rats are most likely getting in, so proofing can be added to the same booking if you want it done.
