eliminating rat scent in attic

February 19, 2013 By Tech Support 3 Comments

 

Hi. Can you recommend anything for sanitizing the attic and eliminating scent and bacteria left by rats? I am trying to get after some rats that are getting into my attic. I live across from the beach and close to a bunch of restaurants. I need help!

The company here that seems to specialize in this, “Wildlife Solutions”, wants a huge amount of money to use some kind of spray and to trap them.

We should be able to help. First, you’ll want to remove all droppings, contaminate insulation and any other mess they’ve made. Use a good RESPIRATOR to avoid breathing contaminates.

The exposed areas should be sprayed or misted with ROUGH AND READY. This ready to spray solution will sanitize the area removing all bacteria and virus immediately.

Next spray or mist NNZ. This stuff works instantly and will remove any odor such as dead body smell, smoke, food, feces and more. Use 8 oz to a gallon of water and plan on getting about 500 sq/ft per mixed gallon.

Use a good PUMP SPRAYER to apply the NNz.

For large areas, our MINI FOGGER is well suited to distribute the treatment.

After one treatment (assuming you have access to all areas), the odor will be gone 99% of the time. Give it a few days to confirm its clear and then prepare the area as desired.

Lastly, be sure to install some of our SOUND REPELLERS for ending the problem permenantly. Sealing holes can help but as our post on “How to keep Rodents from Returning to your Home” explains, there is no way you can keep them out if they want in.

How To Stop Invading Rodents: https://bugspray.com/eliminate-animal-odor-stop-rodents-returning.html

As our article explains, rodents rely on nothing but “odor” or “scent” to track their way around homes and yards. And once a house is marked as a good place to live, well, you’ll be subject to ongoing invasions unless you take these scent trails away. NNz will get that job done for sure so use it outside the homes perimeter too. And of course, installing our sound repellers will greatly help.

Give us a call if you need more help but no doubt you can tackle this problem yourself if you’re so inclined. And in the process, you’ll be able to save yourself a lot of money.

    We have just moved in a house that has been empty for over a year. The odor was horrific. It took a Month to clean paint, air out and repair. Lately I’ve noticed the smell has returned. The attic is filled with the last owners belongs.. Please Help

      Yolanda,

      If you read our article above, you’ll see we detail exactly what you need to do. First remove all droppings and mess the rodents left. Next, treat with Rough and Ready. Next, with NNz and lastly, install some of our sound repellers for a “permanent” solution.
