Noises in the Walls at Night: Mouse, Rat, Squirrel, or Something Else?
The time of the noise, its height in the wall, and its rhythm are almost always enough to identify the animal. Here is how to read those three clues.

Costs, timelines, and guarantee in Plateau-Mont-Royal
The price of a commercial Pest Control treatment depends on three variables: the area to cover, the number of units involved, and how much preparation is already done. That is exactly why we do not quote over the phone without seeing the site — a blind number always ends up being revised. The inspection is free and the resulting quote is firm. The usual lead time in Plateau-Mont-Royal is 24 to 72 hours depending on the season, with priority given to emergencies and food businesses. All our treatments carry a results guarantee: if activity resumes within the covered period, we come back at no charge.
Landlord or tenant in Plateau-Mont-Royal: who does what
In Quebec, the landlord must keep the dwelling habitable, which includes the absence of vermin: extermination is at their expense when the infestation is not caused by the tenant. The tenant must give prompt notice and provide access. In practice, nearly every dispute brought before the Tribunal administratif du logement turns on those two obligations, not on the principle. That is why we systematically recommend a dated written notice — email or letter — describing what was observed, where, and since when. On our side, for every building in Plateau-Mont-Royal we supply a dated intervention log: visit dates, products used, units treated, follow-ups scheduled. It is the document a municipal inspection asks for, and the one that protects the owner in a dispute.
Commercial Pest Control: what Plateau-Mont-Royal's building stock demands
The area's structuring constraint is original wood floors and mouldings, whose cracks provide harbourage the treatment must reach one by one. In practice, that means a treatment limited to the room where the problem was noticed leaves the source untouched. Our technicians therefore map the building before applying anything: a survey of unit separations, plumbing and electrical penetrations, floor voids, and attics. That map determines the treatment's extent — sometimes a single unit, often an entire vertical stack. The Plateau’s very high tenant turnover means a unit can be reinfested by a move-in weeks after a successful treatment.
Our commercial Pest Control protocol, step by step
The free inspection identifies the species, the extent, and the entry points, and leads to a written quote detailing products, method, schedule, and guarantee. Treatment follows, applied with Health Canada-approved products and a preparation whose instructions are given to you in advance — the part clients most underestimate, and the one that separates a successful treatment from one that must be redone. One or two follow-up visits then verify the outcome in the following weeks, with free touch-ups if activity persists. In Plateau-Mont-Royal, we schedule those follow-ups against the species' reproductive cycle rather than on a fixed date.
