Prevention Is Better Than Cure

Basic Rodent Prevention Tips

Rodents can enter your property through gaps as small as a 50-cent coin. Knowing how to prevent them is your first line of defence.

Seal Entry Points

Seal all gaps in doors, windows, walls and pipe conduits. Rodents chisel through continuously-growing incisor teeth — even through wiring that can cause fires.

Proper Sanitation

Keep garbage cans covered at all times. Dispose of rotten food properly as the smell quickly invites rodents. Clean bin areas and refuse chutes regularly.

Remove Shelter

Dispose of empty boxes and unused cardboard. They provide ideal nesting material and warm shelter for rats building nests for their young.

Airtight Food Storage

Invest in airtight food storage containers for all leftover food and pantry items. Do not consume food in areas where rodents may have been present.

Traps & Baits

Off-the-shelf traps and baits can help reduce numbers. For correct placement and a permanent solution, consult a professional rodent pest control specialist.
Try These First

Do-It-Yourself Rodent Control Remedies

Popular home remedies you can try before calling a professional — and why they often fall short.

Glue Boards

Widely available and easy to deploy, glue boards trap rodents on contact. Effective for detecting and catching individual mice or rats, but should be placed along walls and in areas of rodent activity for best results. They do not address the source of the infestation.

Cage Traps

Live cage traps allow rodents to be captured without harming them. Place near active trails, droppings or gnaw marks. While humane, knowing where and how to correctly position traps is critical — improper placement reduces effectiveness significantly.

Natural Repellents

Peppermint oil, mothballs and predator urine are popular home remedies. They may deter rodents in the short term but are rarely effective against an established infestation. They do not eliminate the colony or prevent re-entry through existing gaps in your property.
While DIY remedies can help reduce rodent numbers temporarily, they rarely eliminate the infestation at its source. Rodents breed rapidly and finding their harbouring locations requires professional training and experience. Getting a professional rat pest control company is the most effective and permanent solution — they can stop the population from multiplying and eradicate the infestation completely.

Rodent Control Treatment

The first step of our rodent control program is identifying the types of rodents in your area. Some of the most common species found in Singapore include the Norway rat, roof rat and house mouse. Rat vs mouse dropping identification is a critical step in determining the type of rodent and measuring the level of activity. This enables us to solve your rat issues faster.

Rodent baits and traps are placed at strategic locations without underestimating the size of the infestation. Our focus areas include zones where water, food or harbourage is available. Our experts also seal entry points such as gaps in walls, doors, windows, vents and pipes to prevent further ingress.

Treatment Options

Professional Rodent Treatment Methods

We select the right combination based on your rodent species, infestation severity and property type.

Tamper-Proof Bait Stations

Most Effective
Protective housing units containing rodenticide bait are placed at strategic locations. The casing protects bait from moisture, dust and contamination, while also safeguarding children and pets from direct contact. Bait is designed to attract and eliminate rodents within 3 to 7 days.

Snap Traps

Fast Results
The most reliable mechanical trap for rapid capture. As soon as a rodent triggers the mechanism, the bar snaps down immediately. Snap traps are positioned along active rodent trails, near droppings and entry points, where movement is most predictable and trapping is most effective.

Glue Board Traps

Detection & Capture
Plastic or cardboard trays evenly coated with an extremely strong adhesive capture rodents on contact. Glue boards are ideal for monitoring activity levels, capturing house mice and confirming infestation presence. They are commonly used in conjunction with baiting programmes.

Rodenticide

Population Control
An effective pesticide formulated to kill rodents including adult and juvenile rats and mice. Attractants such as peanut butter are used to entice rodents to consume the bait. Applied only in secured, inaccessible locations to ensure safety for non-target animals and people.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our rodent control services in Singapore.

Are rodents dangerous in Singapore homes and businesses? ⌄
Yes. Rodents spread serious diseases including leptospirosis, salmonellosis, rat bite fever and lassa fever through their droppings, urine and bites. They also cause significant structural damage by gnawing on electrical wiring, pipes and insulation — creating fire and flood risks. Any rodent sighting should be treated promptly by a licensed professional.
How do rodents get into my property? ⌄
Rodents can squeeze through gaps as small as a 50-cent coin. Common entry points include drain pipes, wall crevices, gaps around utility conduits, open vents and damaged window frames. Roof rats enter from above via overhanging tree branches and poorly sealed roof eaves. Norway rats enter through floor drains and basement openings.
What are the signs of a rodent infestation? ⌄
The most common signs are gnaw marks on food packaging or wires, dark capsule-shaped droppings along walls or inside cabinets, shredded nesting materials in secluded areas, scratching or scurrying sounds at night — especially from ceilings or false ceilings — and dark grease marks along skirting boards where rodents regularly travel.
How fast do rodents reproduce? ⌄
Extremely fast. A single female can produce up to 40 offspring per year. House mice reach sexual maturity in just one month; roof rats and Norway rats in 2 to 3 months. In ideal conditions a female can conceive again within 48 hours of giving birth. A small, undetected infestation can become a serious problem within weeks.
What is the most effective way to get rid of rodents permanently? ⌄
Permanent control requires a combination of professional treatment and proofing. A licensed technician will identify the species, locate entry points, place rodenticide bait stations and traps at strategic locations, then seal access gaps. DIY methods can reduce numbers temporarily but rarely eliminate the source population or prevent re-entry.
Is the rodent treatment safe for my children and pets? ⌄
Yes. All products used by Innovative Pest Management are NEA-approved. Bait stations are tamper-proof and designed to protect children and pets from direct contact. Our technicians apply treatments at the minimum effective dose. You will be advised of any precautions before and after the service.
Do you offer rodent control for commercial properties in Singapore? ⌄
Yes. We provide comprehensive rodent management programmes for F&B outlets, warehouses, factories, food production facilities and SFA-licensed premises. Our commercial contracts include scheduled inspections, baiting, proofing works and full documentation to meet NEA and SFA audit requirements.
How long does rodent treatment take and when will I see results? ⌄
An initial inspection and treatment visit takes 60 to 90 minutes. Rodenticide bait stations show results within 3 to 7 days as rodents consume the bait. Snap and glue traps capture activity immediately. A follow-up visit confirms elimination and assesses whether proofing or continued baiting is required.
