Can Fumigation Kill Rats

Fumigation with Vikane® results in the near-instantaneous death of rats in a building, and it doesn’t leave any residue after the building has been aired. While costly, fumigation is an effective and fast method to eliminate a dangerous rat population throughout an entire building.

What kills rat instantly?

Traps are one of the most effective ways to get rid of rats fast. For best results, consider using snap traps, which are a fast method to kill rats instantly. To prevent other animals from getting into the traps, place them inside a box or under a milk crate.

How much does it cost to fumigate a house for rats?

Fumigation for rats is usually a last resort, since it’s such an expensive and disruptive treatment. This usually costs between $1 and $3 per square foot, so a 2,000-square-foot house would cost between $2,000 and $6,000 to fumigate. Fortunately, most mice and rat infestations can be controlled with traps.
