Why West Farms Has a Rats Problem
West Farms' proximity to the Bronx River and the Bronx Zoo creates unique pest pressures, with rats often seeking shelter in residential buildings along West Farms Road and the streets surrounding West Farms Square. The mix of pre-war apartment buildings, single-family homes, and commercial corridors in the area requires specialized rodent control approaches that address both structural vulnerabilities and sanitation challenges.
Why Choose Us for Rat Extermination in West Farms
Rat extermination in NYC requires a combination of population reduction and structural exclusion — trapping or baiting without sealing entry points is a temporary fix that invites re-infestation from the surrounding population. We start with a full exterior inspection to identify burrows, runways, gnaw marks, and entry points, then deploy tamper-resistant bait stations and snap traps in key locations along rat travel routes. Exclusion work — sealing gaps around pipes, foundation cracks, utility penetrations, and door gaps with steel wool, hardware cloth, and caulk — is included in our service to block re-entry. Our 30-day guarantee means if rat activity continues after treatment, we return to assess and re-treat at no charge.
