Rats contaminate food, chew wiring, and carry diseases. We find how they get in, eliminate them, and seal every entry point — guaranteed.
Rats and mice are among the most destructive and dangerous pests found in Shah Alam properties. They contaminate food supplies, chew through electrical wiring (causing fire hazards), damage insulation and structural components, and carry serious diseases including leptospirosis, salmonellosis, and hantavirus. Shah Alam's mix of residential estates, commercial zones, food outlets, and open drains creates an environment where rat populations can thrive if left unchecked.
Mr Pest Control Shah Alam provides comprehensive rodent control services for homes, restaurants, warehouses, and commercial buildings across the entire Shah Alam district. Our approach combines professional trapping, tamper-proof bait stations, and thorough entry point sealing — because killing rats without blocking how they get in only provides temporary relief.
Strategic placement of snap traps and live traps in high-activity areas. We position traps along travel paths identified during inspection — along walls, near entry points, and in ceiling spaces.
Secure, lockable bait stations placed in strategic locations. These are safe around children and pets — only rats can access the bait inside. Particularly effective for outdoor and commercial applications.
We identify and seal every gap, crack, pipe opening, and structural weakness where rats enter your property. Using steel wool, cement, metal flashing, and wire mesh — materials rats cannot chew through.
We assess your property for conditions that attract rats — exposed food waste, open bins, standing water, overgrown vegetation — and provide practical recommendations to make your property less inviting.
Scratching noises: Sounds in the ceiling, walls, or under the floor at night indicate rats moving through your property.
Droppings: Dark, pellet-shaped droppings (about 12-18mm for rats, 3-6mm for mice) found near food sources, along walls, or in cupboards.
Gnaw marks: Rats chew through wood, plastic, cables, and even aluminium. Check for gnaw marks on food packaging, door corners, and wiring.
Ammonia-like smell: A strong, stale odour — especially in enclosed spaces like the ceiling void or under the kitchen sink — indicates an active rat nest nearby.
Grease marks: Rats travel the same paths repeatedly, leaving dark, oily marks along walls, pipes, and beams.
Burrow holes: Holes in the garden, near the foundation, or along drain edges indicate Norway rat burrows.

Book Free InspectionMost rat control fails because it focuses only on killing the rats already inside. Without sealing entry points, new rats simply replace the ones removed. Our service always includes a thorough proofing component — we identify every potential entry point and seal them with materials rats cannot penetrate.
Common entry points we seal include: gaps around air-conditioning pipes, spaces where drainage pipes enter walls, broken air bricks, gaps under doors, damaged soffit boards, and openings around cable entries. Rats can squeeze through a gap the width of a 20-sen coin, so even small openings must be addressed.
We offer a complete range of pest control solutions for every situation.
Rat control for a typical home starts from RM300 to RM800 depending on severity and property size. This includes trapping, bait station placement, and entry point sealing. Commercial properties are quoted individually based on size and requirements.
Most rat problems are resolved within 2 to 4 weeks with our combination approach. Severe infestations in larger properties may take longer. We monitor progress throughout and adjust the treatment plan as needed.
Yes. Our tamper-proof bait stations are locked and can only be opened with a special key. The design prevents children, pets, and non-target animals from accessing the bait inside.
This is a common concern. We position bait stations in areas where rats are most likely to return to their nests after feeding, which is typically outside the property. If a rat does die in an inaccessible area, the smell usually dissipates within 1 to 2 weeks.
Roof rats are excellent climbers. They access ceilings through gaps in the roof eaves, around air-conditioning pipes, broken air bricks, or by climbing nearby trees and jumping onto the roof. We identify and seal all these access points.
Yes. Our rat control service includes warranty. If rats return during the warranty period, we will retreat at no extra cost. The key to long-term success is proper entry point sealing, which we always include.
