PERTH’S BEST RODENT REMOVAL SERVICES
Rats and mice can do serious damage in a matter of weeks — chewing through electrical wiring, contaminating your food, and exposing your family to harmful bacteria and parasites. If you have heard scratching noises at night, found droppings in the kitchen, or noticed gnaw marks on furniture or cables, it is time to call in a professional.
EcoSafe Pest Control Perth provides safe, eco-friendly rodent control across Perth and the surrounding suburbs. Our licensed technicians use APVMA-registered products in tamper-resistant bait stations — effective against rats and mice, and safe for your children and pets.
Signs You Need Professional Rodent Removal in Perth
Many Perth homeowners only call for rodent removal once the infestation is already severe. Catching the problem early saves significant time, money, and damage. Watch for these warning signs:
Scratching or scurrying noises in walls, ceilings, or roof spaces — especially at night
Small, dark droppings (5-15 mm) in cupboards, pantries, behind appliances, or along skirting boards
Gnaw marks on food packaging, electrical cables, timber beams, or plastic piping
Greasy rub marks or smear trails along walls where rodents run regular pathways
Nesting material — shredded paper, insulation, or fabric — in hidden spaces
A strong, musky odour in roof voids, under-floor areas, or wall cavities
Damaged food containers or wiring with unusual bite marks.
If you are noticing any of these signs and searching for rodent control near me, our Perth team can inspect your property the same day.
Common Rodent Species in Perth, WA
Identifying the species is the first step in effective rodent pest control. Different species behave differently, nest in different locations, and respond to different baiting strategies. Perth properties are typically affected by three introduced species:
Norway Rat (Rattus norvegicus) — Brown Rat
The Norway Rat is the largest of the three common species, typically 200-300 mm in body length with a shorter tail. Brown or grey-brown in colour with a blunt nose and small ears, this species burrows in gardens, under concrete slabs, and along drainage systems. Norway Rats are ground dwellers — they are rarely found in roof spaces. They cause significant structural damage through burrowing and gnawing on foundations, pipes, and cables. Treatment focuses on ground-level bait stations and burrow baiting.
Roof Rat (Rattus rattus) — Black Rat
The Roof Rat is a skilled climber and the species most commonly responsible for the scratching sounds Perth homeowners hear at night. Sleeker and lighter than the Norway Rat, with a longer tail than body length and large, prominent ears. Roof Rats nest in roof voids, wall cavities, and dense vegetation such as palm trees — very common in Perth’s northern suburbs. They contaminate large quantities of food and are particularly destructive to roof insulation. Treatment targets elevated bait stations, roof access points, and trapping in roof voids.
House Mouse (Mus musculus)
The House Mouse is much smaller than rats — typically 60-100 mm in body length — and often underestimated. House Mice breed rapidly (a single pair can produce up to 60 offspring per year) and can fit through a gap as small as 6 mm. They contaminate far more food than they consume through droppings and urine, and their constant gnawing damages wiring, insulation, and packaging. Treatment requires a combination of snap traps, glue boards, and secure bait stations placed in concealed locations behind appliances and under furniture.
Our 4-Step Rodent Removal Process in Perth
Every rodent removal in Perth begins with a thorough understanding of your property, the species involved, and the extent of the infestation. Here is what to expect when you book with EcoSafe:
STEP 1: Professional Inspection — We inspect the full interior and exterior of your property. Our technicians identify the rodent species, locate active nesting sites, map entry points (gaps, weep holes, pipe chases, vents), and assess the infestation level. You will receive a clear verbal report with findings.
STEP 2: Tailored Treatment Plan — No two infestations are identical. We design a treatment plan specific to your property type (house, apartment, warehouse), the species confirmed, and your household requirements (pets, children, food preparation areas). We use eco-friendly APVMA-registered rodenticides in tamper-proof bait stations.
STEP 3: Treatment & Exclusion — Our licensed technicians place bait stations at strategic locations: ground-level around the perimeter, inside roof voids, behind appliances, and in any identified runways. Where possible, we seal entry points using appropriate materials to prevent re-entry — a step that most DIY solutions skip entirely.
STEP 4: Follow-Up & Prevention — We schedule a follow-up visit (included as standard in most treatments) to check bait uptake, remove deceased rodents, and confirm the infestation has been resolved. We also provide a written prevention report advising on hygiene practices, vegetation management, and any further exclusion work recommended.
Perth Rodent Season Guide — When to Act
Autumn (Mar-May):
Activity increases as temperatures drop. Rodents seek indoor shelter. First scratching sounds often appear.
Book a pre-winter inspection. Block entry points before rodents establish nests.
Winter (Jun-Aug):
Peak infestation season. Cold, wet conditions drive rats and mice indoors aggressively.
Act immediately. Professional treatment most effective during this period.
Spring (Sep-Nov):
Breeding accelerates sharply. A single pair of roof rats can produce 40+ offspring in spring alone.
Post-winter follow-up. Check roof voids and seal new vegetation access points.
Summer (Dec-Feb):
Outdoor food sources abundant. Rodents less aggressive about indoor entry but spring populations remain active.
Monitor bait stations. Garden and bin hygiene critical to prevent attracting rodents.
Why Eco-Friendly Rodent Control Matters in Perth?
Many conventional pest control companies use first-generation anticoagulant rodenticides that pose significant risks of secondary poisoning — when predators like raptors, owls, and domestic cats consume poisoned rodents. Perth’s urban areas are home to native wildlife including kookaburras, wedge-tailed eagles, and native lizards that are vulnerable to this secondary poisoning chain.
At EcoSafe, we use second-generation, APVMA-approved rodenticides in tamper-resistant, lockable bait stations that are inaccessible to non-target species. Our treatments are designed to be effective against Norway Rats, Roof Rats, and House Mice while protecting Perth’s native wildlife and minimising environmental impact.

For businesses — particularly in hospitality, food service, warehousing, and property management — a rodent infestation is not just a health hazard. It is a legal liability and a reputational risk. Perth food businesses found with active rodent infestations face immediate compliance action from the Department of Health WA.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How much does rodent removal cost in Perth?
Professional rodent removal in Perth ranges from $199 to $350 for most standard residential properties. The final price depends on property size, species involved, severity of infestation, and whether entry point sealing is required. Dead rodent removal starts from $150. Call 0424 800 001 for a free phone quote.
How long does rodent treatment take to work?
Most properties see a significant reduction in activity within 5–10 days, with complete elimination typically within 10–21 days. A follow-up visit at 10–14 days is included to confirm success and refresh bait stations if needed.
Is rodent control safe for my children and pets?
Yes. We use tamper-resistant, lockable bait stations that children and most pets cannot open. All products are APVMA-registered in Australia. In most cases, you do not need to vacate during or after treatment.
Do I need to leave my home during rodent treatment?
No. Standard residential treatments use secured bait stations with no airborne chemical exposure. You may need to keep pets confined during the 30–60 minute service, but normal activity resumes immediately after.
Why do I keep getting rats even after treatment?
Recurring infestations almost always come down to unsealed entry points, an unremoved attractant, or re-infestation from neighbouring properties. If recurrence happens within our guarantee period, we will re-inspect at no charge.
What is the difference between rats and mice — does it matter for treatment?
Yes, significantly. Mice approach new bait stations within 1–2 days; Norway Rats take 3–7 days due to neophobic behaviour; Roof Rats require elevated station placement in the roof void. Using the wrong approach for the wrong species is the most common reason DIY treatment fails.
Can I use rodent poison myself instead of calling a professional?
You can, but retail products are limited to slower first-generation rodenticides in unsecured baits. Licensed professionals use stronger actives in secured stations and address root causes. For anything beyond a single-mouse situation, a professional is the more reliable and ultimately more cost-effective solution.
Do you offer same-day rodent removal in Perth?
Yes. Same-day appointments are available across most Perth suburbs — call before 10am for the best chance of a same-day booking. After-hours emergency callouts are also available on 0424 800 001.
How do I know if there are dead rats in my roof or walls?
A strong, sweet-putrid odour concentrated in one area — particularly on warm days — is the clearest indicator. The smell typically peaks 3–5 days after death. Our dead rodent removal service includes full inspection, safe carcass removal, deodorising treatment, and entry point identification.

Hear from Our Happy Customers
Rats Pest Control Perth (same company) came today and installed rodent stations around the house. The solution was more expensive than I expected, but I'm hoping this will resolve the problem on a longer term basis.
Very positive experience. Quick response, very knowledgeable.
I’m a returning happy customer for ant pest control after 2 years. The granular solution was done professionally by Sam for the whole house again. It worked wonders and ants took the bait within the next few minutes. Overall, it was a great experience with the team, I didn’t have to wait long to organize for Sam to come out. Also, job was done efficiently. Thank you. Hopefully my house will be ant free in no time. I’ll definitely be using them every year for a pest free home.
We have had an ant problem every summer for a few years and have fought them ourselves until this year. Eco Safe Pest Control were very fast at responding to my request. They were a bit late on arrival, but did advise of this. Relatively thorough inspection of property conducted; wanted to see where any activity was. We were then advised of the best course of treatment (which was the granules) which was fine (a little on the pricey side). The ant activity has decreased since treatment (treated 3 weeks ago). Thank you.
I had a B problem, it took a few tries to get it sorted, but they persisted and did a great job. Very happy with the service. would recommend.
Passionate bloke , gave great information and helped me out with a treatment for my home . Definitely would recommend
Emailed ECO safe and had a quick one day response they were out to assist me with our ant problem, they were timely and knowledgeable, reasonably priced and this is my 4th time using them great company.
After hearing rats in our roof I was after a fast and painless solution to our problem. I googled for a rat exterminator close by, requested a call back and within 3 hours had someone come to my house and taken care of our Rat problem. They treated both outside and in the roof cavity and provide a great warranty for re-treatment if required. We have a lot of pets and a child and knowing the treatment is safe for both was a huge bonus.
Great experience with Eco Safe. Googled closest to my suburb, placed a call and he was here within 20mins. Very knowledgeable, and worked quickly to tackle our problem with ants. Unfortunate our backyard is sizeable as this added to the cost but within minutes I watched the granular bait in action. He stands by his work with a guarantee so fingers crossed our ant problem will soon be a goner. Thank you very much, will definitely use Eco Safe in the future!!!
We have a bad ant infestation around our property and nothing we tried seemed to work. I contacted Eco Safe pest control and Lavlen was able to offer an appointment bit sooner that the other companies I contacted and suggested we only treat the ant issue for now. He is professional and knowledgeable and showed how the granule treatment works. Great service and will get in touch again for any other pest control issues. Thank you Lavlen.
Great service! Eco Safe were able to attend to our house the same day we contacted them. Very quick & efficient with their spraying of our ant problem. Also very knowledgeable. Will be using them again for all future issues with pests.
I searched for a pest control company in caversham and found ecosafe pest control and filled out a form to get a quote, I had a call within 30min to book an appointment for the next day. Very happy with the service and suprised at how many spiders and cockroaches came out after the spraying. Will definitely be using the company again.
The team at Ecosafe Pest Control Perth were so friendly, super responsive and provided some expert advice on Pest Control at our house. I made an enquiry online and they were here within two days! Would recommend to anyone needing an expert in pest control
We had an infestation all around the house of brown Ants. It was just getting worse and worse, even while we sprayed and baited. It only took a few minutes for Eco safe to deal with the issue using an granular solution. Lavlen was very professional and knowledgeable. Follow up: within 3 days there was significantly less ants around the house and on day 5 there was none. I was super impressed at how effective the bait worked compared to any off the shelf product. We'll worth the cost. I would have paid double to have this done 2 months ago and avoid all the headache
Yesterday I had Sam from Eco Safe Pest Control Perth spray my house for general pest control, I can highly recommend the company. Sam was very thorough and professional with his work spraying everything outside, in my garage and my garden shed. Not to mention turning up in 38• heat. I would highly recommend Eco Safe Pest Control Perth. I have used some other companies and their products just don’t seem to last. I have used these guys in the past and will continue on. Spiders dropping like flies along my fence and outside the next day!!! Now I have happy kids. Thanks 🕷️🕷️🕷️
Great friendly service and experience with Eco Safe. Very knowledgeable and gave breakdown of cause of ant problem. Could see the effects starting to take place within minutes. Would recommend and will use them in the future for any pest control
