🐀 RODENTS IN ROOF SPACES — A GROWING PROBLEM DURING CAIRNS WET SEASON
Hearing scratching or movement in your ceiling during wet weather?
In Cairns, that’s often a sign rodents have moved into your roof space.
👉 Heavy rain and tropical storms frequently drive rats and mice indoors looking for shelter.
At Pro Pest Control Cairns, we see a major increase in rodent activity during the wet season.
🌧️ WHY THE WET SEASON DRIVES RODENTS INSIDE
During heavy rain, rodents search for:
❌ Dry shelter
❌ Warm nesting areas
❌ Easy food and water access
❌ Protection from flooding and storms
Your roof space becomes the perfect hiding spot.
🏠 WHY ROOF CAVITIES ATTRACT RODENTS
Rodents love roof spaces because they provide:
❌ Warm insulation materials
❌ Dark, quiet nesting zones
❌ Protection from predators
❌ Easy movement through ceilings and walls
⚠️ THE DAMAGE HAPPENS FAST
Rodents inside roofs can cause:
❌ Chewed electrical wiring
❌ Fire risks from exposed cables
❌ Damaged insulation
❌ Contamination from droppings and urine

You may notice:
❌ Scratching sounds at night
❌ Droppings in storage areas
