BEHAVIOUR
Garden shrews typically venture out of the nest and explore their surroundings.

INSPECTION
Our Technicians are trained to meticulously seek out bed bugs and signs of booklice. They also take into consideration structural issues, housekeeping practices as well as surrounding environments.

MONITORING DEVICES*
Set up along potential pathways, these devices pick up motion to identify rodents movement. The data collected is used to improve the program strategy to achieve higher success rates.

GLUE BOARDS
Placed where rodents typically travel, glue boards trap rodents when they go past it. Our technicians add baits that colour the rodents droppings so that we can monitor their activity.

SNAP TRAPS
A bait is placed on the trigger plate so that when the rodent enters and tries to reach it, the spring-loaded bar snaps down on the rodent.

DATA COLLECTION*
We track the larval count to monitor mosquito activity. Based on data analysis, we adjust the treatment to achieve optimal results with minimal use of chemicals.
SERVICE REPORT
After the service is done, a digital report will be emailed to you. This report contains photos of the problematic spots and the treatment done, along with suggestions specific to your site.

BEHAVIOUR
House mice are excellent climbers and can scale walls and other vertical surfaces with ease.
BREEDING
House Mice can breed all year round and produce litters every 20-30 days.
BREEDING
They are social animals that live in large groups where there are multiple breeding pairs within.
FEEDING
House Mice feed on a variety of food including grains, seeds, fruits, insects and small animals.

IDENTIFY
Droppings are small, dark and cylindrical in shape with pointed ends.

BEHAVIOUR
Norway Rats tend to hoard food and store them in burrows to eat later.
BREEDING
Norway Rat can get pregnant again soon after given birth which means they can produce multiple litters in a year.
FEEDING
They eat almost anything, grains, fruits, vegetables, meat and insects. Norway rats scavenge in rubbish bins and other sources of waste.
IDENTIFY
The Norway Rat have relatively small ears and small, beady eyes. Its tail is hairless, scaly and shorter than its body length.
SIZE
They are significantly larger than other rodents like the House Mouse or Roof Rat.
