What pack rats do

Pack rats, also called woodrats, build bulky nests known as middens out of sticks, cactus, trash and anything they can haul. They favor sheds, woodpiles, rock features and parked vehicles, where they chew through wiring and hoses. A car left sitting near the foothills can pick up a nest in days.

A foothills problem

From Sandia Heights and Glenwood Hills down through Four Hills and out into the East Mountains, homes that back onto desert and rock carry the most pack rat pressure. The dry, brushy edges that make these areas beautiful also give woodrats cover and nesting material right up to the garage.

Breaking the cycle

our team removes the active midden, clears the debris, and treats the runways and harborage around the property. Sealing sheds and protecting vehicles keeps the spot from being reclaimed once the current rats are gone.

Frequently asked questions

A parked vehicle near brush offers warmth, cover and chewable wiring. Woodrats move in fast, especially in the foothills. We clear the nest and recommends simple steps to make the engine bay a poor target.

They damage wiring, insulation and stored items, and their nests can harbor other pests. Their droppings also need careful cleanup, which we handles with the right gear.

Removing the midden is step one. We then treats harborage, seals shed and garage gaps, and advises on clearing woodpiles and debris near the home.
