Norway Rat vs. T-Rex

The T-Rex dinosaur might be extinct, but T-Rex Rat Traps are still to be feared.  This Norway Rat found that out this week:
This particular rat was 13 inches long.  He was found in a crawl space and lured out by peanut butter.

Norway rats have thick, heavy bodies and blunt noses.  They are also known as the brown rat, gray rat, barn rat, and sewer rat.  It is common to find them in sewers, warehouses, docks, and basements.

Norway rats can transmit diseases and contaminate food.  If that wasn't enough, they can also cause structural damage to buildings by burrowing.  They have also been known to gnaw on electrical wires and water pipes.

If you think a rat has taken up residence in your home, call us today.  We'll introduce him to Mr. T-Rex!

  1. Are there any other way we can tackle with this breed of rat? Other than traps?

    1. You can use rodenticide for a quick kill. Just be careful of where you apply the poison.
