Rat Extermination
Expert Rat Extermination Services for Fast, Permanent Results. Extreme Solutions
If you’re dealing with a rat problem, don’t rely on DIY traps or home remedies that only offer short-term relief. At Extermination Extreme, we specialize in fast, professional rat extermination services that provide long-term protection for homes and businesses across Montreal.
Rats are more than a nuisance — they pose serious risks by chewing through electrical wiring, damaging insulation and structures, spreading dangerous diseases like leptospirosis and salmonella, and contaminating food supplies. These smart, adaptable rodents often nest in walls, basements, attics, and sewers, and can enter through holes as small as a quarter.
Our licensed rat exterminators use proven, humane, and highly effective methods to eliminate infestations and prevent re-entry. We go beyond surface-level solutions by identifying nesting zones, sealing access points, and implementing strategic baiting and trapping systems tailored to your environment.
Whether you’ve spotted a single rat or are dealing with a widespread infestation, Extermination Extreme offers custom rat control plans that are safe, discreet, and designed for lasting protection.

Our Rat Extermination Process: Safe, Proven & Customized
When it comes to rat control, no two infestations are alike — entry points, nesting areas, and the severity of the problem can vary widely. That’s why Extermination Extreme uses a strategic, customized approach tailored to your home or business. We assess the unique structure of your property, locate the source of the infestation, and develop a precise plan to eliminate all rat activity and keep them from coming back.
The Process
Step 1: Detailed Inspection & Assessment
We start with a comprehensive inspection of your property — inside and out. Our licensed technicians identify signs of rat activity, such as droppings, gnaw marks, nesting materials, and entry points. We examine basements, attics, kitchens, garages, and exterior areas to understand the scope of the infestation and how rats are accessing your home or building.
Step 3: Exclusion & Prevention
Once active rats are being eliminated, we move to prevention. We seal all identified entry points using rodent-proof materials — such as metal mesh, steel wool, or caulking — to block future access. We also provide practical recommendations on sanitation and storage to remove attractants like food, water, and shelter.
Step 2: Customized Extermination Plan
Based on our findings, we create a tailored treatment plan that fits your property’s layout and the severity of the infestation. This may include a combination of:
-
Tamper-resistant bait stations
-
Snap traps and multi-catch traps
-
Strategic placement of traps in high-traffic rat zones
-
Monitoring tools to track rodent movement
All our methods are designed to be safe for families, pets, and the environment.
Step 4: Follow-Up & Monitoring
Our service doesn’t stop after initial treatment. We conduct follow-up visits to ensure full extermination, check traps and bait stations, and adjust strategies if needed. For ongoing protection, we also offer long-term monitoring plans, especially for multi-unit buildings or businesses with higher risk of reinfestation.

Rat Removal; The Process
The Complete Guide to Rat Extermination in Montreal & Surrounding Areas
What Every Homeowner Needs to Know About These Unwanted Intruders
So, What Are Rats Exactly?
Rats are larger rodents that commonly invade homes and businesses across Montreal, Laval, the South Shore, and surrounding regions. They are particularly active during colder months, looking for warmth, food, and shelter. Despite their relatively large size, rats are extremely agile, adaptable, and capable of causing significant damage to property and health.
The most common species in Quebec are the Norway rat (brown rat) and the roof rat. These rodents are typically 15–25 cm in body length, with long tails and sharp claws. They are nocturnal, fast breeders, and excellent at squeezing through small spaces to gain access to buildings.
Rat Biology & Behavior
Rats reproduce rapidly, which can cause infestations to grow exponentially. Their life cycle includes:
Pups: Born in litters of 6–12, they develop quickly.
Juveniles: Start exploring and eating solid food at 2–3 weeks.
Adults: Reach sexual maturity in about 5 weeks, capable of producing multiple litters annually.
A single pair of rats can lead to hundreds of offspring in a year, making early detection critical.
Where Rats Hide in Your Home
Rats are opportunistic feeders and look for places that offer shelter, warmth, and easy access to food and water. Common hiding and nesting areas include:
-
Inside walls and attics
-
Under floors, behind large appliances, and in basements
-
In garages, sheds, and crawl spaces
-
Inside storage boxes or behind furniture
Rats can fit through openings as small as the size of a quarter, so sealing entry points is essential.
Why Rats Are a Serious Problem
🐀 Health Risks: Rats carry diseases like leptospirosis, salmonella, and hantavirus. Their urine, droppings, and saliva can contaminate food and surfaces.
🛠️ Property Damage: Rats are notorious for chewing through wires, insulation, walls, and personal belongings. Their gnawing can cause electrical fires and structural damage.
📦 Rapid Infestation: Rats breed quickly, meaning a few rats can multiply into a large problem within weeks.
💰 Contamination: They can ruin food supplies and cause health code violations, particularly in commercial settings.
Signs of a Rat Infestation
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
-
Droppings (large, dark pellets) near food or nesting areas
-
Gnaw marks on food packaging, wires, or wood
-
Scratching or scurrying sounds in walls, ceilings, or attics, especially at night
-
Nesting material like shredded paper, fabric, or insulation
-
A musky or ammonia-like odor in hidden spaces
