A Focused Solution for Rat Infestations
Welcome to Orlando Rat Control, a local service built specifically to handle rat problems and nothing else. We focus exclusively on rats, which allows us to deliver faster diagnostics, more precise treatments, and stronger long-term results than general pest companies. From attic activity and wall voids to exterior entry points, our rat control services in Orlando address the problem at its source, not just the symptoms.
If rats have made their way into your home or commercial property, quick action matters. These rodents spread disease, damage structures, and multiply fast in Florida’s climate. Our team specializes in rat removal, targeted infestation treatment, and proactive exclusion work to stop repeat invasions. Every solution we use is designed for long-term control, not temporary relief.
Why Rats Require Professional Control
Rats in Central Florida thrive year-round, especially in neighborhoods with dense vegetation, older construction, or nearby water sources. DIY methods often miss nesting sites or fail to stop re-entry, which allows the infestation to continue unnoticed.
Common Rat Species We Handle in Orlando
- Roof Rats
Common throughout Orlando, roof rats are agile climbers that nest in attics, soffits, and trees near roofs. - Norway Rats
Larger and ground-oriented, these rats burrow near foundations, garages, and crawl spaces. - House Mice
Smaller but destructive, mice often accompany rat activity and require a different removal strategy.
