Local ground: Seine-et-Marne
The largest and most agricultural département in the region, Seine-et-Marne alternates fields, forests and market towns. When the cold sets in, rats and field mice leave the crops for barns, garages and houses, and Asian hornets build their nests high in the trees.
In Melun, this context shapes the inspection: where to look for the first signs, which entry points to check first.
Signs to look for at home
- 01Small black droppings, a few millimetres long for a mouse, one to two centimetres for a rat
- 02Scurrying or scratching at night inside a ceiling or wall
- 03Greasy smears along skirting boards at running height
- 04Gnawed bags, electrical cables or insulation
Recognise one of these signs? Note where you saw it: the technician will start there.
Rodent control: rats and mice: what the technician does
Areas and situations covered
- Norway rat (brown rat)
- Black rat
- House mouse
- Wood mouse
- Cellars, basements and car parks
- Kitchens, bin stores and back rooms
- Lofts, ceiling voids and partition walls
- Gardens, courtyards and the base of walls
Rodents rarely get in by chance. A rat can squeeze through a gap of about two centimetres, a mouse through a hole the width of a pencil. In a flat, a house or a shop stockroom, the question is not only "how many are there?" but "how are they getting in?".
The technician follows the tracks back to the entry points: pipe openings, ducts, gaps under doors, drains, cellar vents. He then sets locked bait stations, or snap traps wherever food is handled, and seals the openings he has found. The follow-up visit checks bait take and the condition of the repairs.
Sentinel Protocol
Four stages, in this order, in Melun as everywhere else
The technician treats nothing before understanding the problem, and does not leave without sealing or flagging the entry points.
Step 1
Inspect
Droppings and runs recorded, ducts, traps and cellar vents examined, wall cavities checked with a camera when useful.
Step 2
Treat
Rodent control with locked bait stations children and pets cannot reach, or snap traps in food areas.
Step 3
Sanitise
Holes packed with steel wool and mortar, grilles on vents, brush door sweeps, soiled areas cleaned and storage advice given.
Step 4
Follow up
Follow-up visit built into the protocol: every station checked, photos of the repairs, recommendations to stay actively vigilant.
Melun: your questions before booking
Do I need to be there during the visit in Melun?
Yes, you or someone you trust: the technician needs access to the rooms, cellar or premises concerned, and explains what they found before leaving.
Is the price different in Melun?
No, it is the same across Île-de-France: from €111 incl. VAT for a first visit, then adjusted for floor area and number of visits. You see the total before paying.
Do you also work in Chelles and Pontault-Combault?
Yes. Chelles, Pontault-Combault and Torcy: these towns in Seine-et-Marne are covered on the same terms as Melun, with the same price and the same protocol.
What do I get after the treatment?
The same day, a photo report by email: signs found in Melun, treatment applied, entry points sealed or still to seal, and advice to limit the risk of a return.
A smell appears a few days later: what should I do?
Let us know. A rodent may die somewhere hard to reach. The technician locates the area at the follow-up visit and suggests the least invasive fix: removal if it is accessible, odour treatment if not.
How soon does the activity die down?
Noise and tracks usually drop noticeably in the days after the stations are set, as the rodents feed on the bait. The follow-up visit, 10 to 15 days later, checks that progress and adjusts the set-up if needed.
