Montreal Rodent Control Services For Your Home or Business
Rats and mice can create a serious issue for homeowners and business owners in Montreal. Known for chewing through wires, insulation, and building structures, rodents can also physically contaminate food with droppings, hairs, nesting debris and spread dangerous diseases through their droppings, urine and saliva, creating dangerous health and safety risks as a result. Rodents also carry parasites such as fleas, ticks, mites and biting lice which are also carriers of diseases. Keeping your property protected from rodent infestations is essential for ensuring a healthy and safe environment.

Our rodent control services are designed to address both current infestations and prevent future problems, keeping your property safe and free from rodents in the long term.
Exclusion and Rodent Proofing
Rodents are notorious for finding their way into buildings through even the smallest openings. In many cases, a rodent infestation begins with an unnoticed crack or gap in a wall or foundation. That’s why Orkin Canada’s first step in rodent control is always a comprehensive inspection of your property to identify exterior rodent pressure points and entry points.
Once potential entry points are identified, we’ll seal these openings with rodent resistant durable materials to prevent rodents from gaining access to your property. This process, known as rodent proofing, is critical in stopping entry and infestations before they start. Proper exclusion and proofing are essential components of any rodent control plan, whether for a home or business, as they eliminate the possibility of rodents finding their way in.
Habitat Modification
Preventing rodent infestations goes beyond sealing entry points—it’s also about modifying the environment around your property to make it less attractive to rodents. Rodents are attracted to easy access to food, water, and shelter. By reducing these attractants, you can significantly decrease the likelihood of an infestation.
Your local Orkin Pro will help you implement habitat modification strategies, such as:
- Identifying and eliminating food sources: Properly store food in sealed containers and dispose of waste regularly. Clean up food spills and food debris promptly.
- Ensure garbage bins or compactors are never overflowing, lids secured.
- For residential, put out garbage on curb sides only on garbage collections days
- Ensure backyard composites are away from exterior of building and well maintained
- Removing water sources: Fix any leaks and eliminate standing water.
- Reducing hiding spots: Clear clutter both inside and outside your building to eliminate places where rodents can nest and hide.
- Store yard items such as firewood off the ground, about 18” away from exterior wall to prevent rodent nesting.
- Landscaping: Trim back shrubs, trees, and vegetation that provide shelter for rodents, particularly around building foundations.
By making your property less inviting to rodents, habitat modification helps to prevent an infestation before it even begins.
Trapping Services
If you already have a rodent infestation, Orkin Canada uses safe, humane trapping methods to address the issue quickly and efficiently. Your local Orkin Pro is experienced in setting up and placing traps in areas with high rodent activity. We offer a variety of trapping options, including:
Snap Traps
These traps use a quick, humane mechanism to capture rodents. They are effective for controlling smaller rodent populations and can be placed in areas with high rodent activity.
Multi-Catch Live Traps
These traps are designed to capture multiple rodents at once. They allow for live capture, so rodents can be safely relocated without harm. Trapping is an effective method for reducing rodent populations, and your local Orkin Pro ensures that all traps are placed discreetly and safely in areas where they won’t be seen or be impacted by customers, employees or guests.
Rodent Baiting
For outdoor rodent control options (where applicable), Orkin Canada uses Health Canada (PMRA) approved bait in tamper-resistant, locked bait stations placed around the perimeter of your property. The placement of these bait stations can be an initial way of controlling rodents from the outside, before they can enter a building or structure. The bait inside the stations is formulated to attract rodents, and the stations are placed in rodent strategic areas to maximise control.
Exterior bait stations act as a primary line of defence, helping to control the outdoor rodent population and prevent rodents from migrating into your home or business. These stations are secure, tamper-resistant, and designed to keep non-target animals and pets safe.
Why Orkin Canada’s Professional Rodent Control Service Is Essential for Homes and Businesses In Montreal
Rodents can cause extensive damage to your property. For Montreal homeowners and businesses rodent infestations can be a nightmare, rodents are known to chew wires, insulation, and even structural components of homes. This can lead to expensive repairs, fire hazards, and compromised safety. Additionally, rodents are carriers of diseases, such as salmonella, hantavirus, and leptospirosis, which can be transmitted through their droppings, urine, or bites. Their constant scratching, gnawing and squeaking noises can be annoying and unsettling, causing restless nights.
For Montreal businesses, the consequences of a rodent infestation can be even more severe. Beyond the physical damage to equipment, structures, and inventory, rodents can compromise hygiene and food safety standards, especially for businesses in the food service, hospitality, daycares, schools, and healthcare sectors. A rodent infestation can also damage a company’s reputation, resulting in lost customers, regulatory fines, and legal liabilities. No business is immune to the risk of rodent problems, which is why a proactive rodent control program is essential to protect your operations.
