I just went through some crawlspace exclusion. I fought rats for a week or so; they either started eating each other or going after stored food (e.g., snail shells). I stuffed one small opening with steel wool (about the size of a dime) that the smart ones exited through by removing every night... I don't know how they fit because they were big (caught a 5" one outside the house). The final one chose to stay inside and ate some baking soda balls; it hid itself in some crawlspace insulation when it died, and I had to fish it out because of the stink. I learned all these skills from The Twins videos!
I use to work with insulation. So that meant attics and crawspaces, still have nightmares about it. The smallest attic we ever crawled threw was about 17inches. We use to stuff main entrances (rat holes) with mesh and foam. Horrible times
I really enjoy watching the twins. I actually work for a Rodent Proofing company in Santa Clara, Ca and watching these videos really helps me educate myself on rat and mice behavior and how to be a better technician. Thanks Alot Guys!! Your work is great!!
I’m no expert but I have no idea how or why homes would ever be designed this way. It’s absurd to me that ducts would be hanging low like that in a damp crawl space laying in the dirt essentially. And why in the world do crawl spaces exist…. Seems way more logical that if you’re going to have something like this, it be a much larger area in case maintenance and repairs like this needs to be done. Then again I’m not a builder nor an engineer, perhaps homes are built like this for some specific reason. I have no clue, just seems absurd. You’re only making it harder on yourself to have such a tight space like this. Respect to you guys for getting under there. You couldn’t give me enough to go anywhere near a hazardous environment like that. Great content fellas!
The unseen areas like the crawl space and attic are always very shoddy, it seems to me. So many wires just hanging around. What if maintenance is needed or if something breaks. It would be horrible to have to work there. The Twins are so good at checking those kinds of spaces out. I understand why they wear hazmat suits and masks.
Another great and informative video fellas. I am suprised the fiberglass insullation doesn't deter the rodents. We had a few visitors in my loft this winter but suprisingly little damage just a small mouse nest was found in my old school books maybe the were learning francais during the cold english days, usually the visitors are field mice in my location. A few years ago my neighbour's had such a overgrown garden and usually missed the fortnightly refuse days and rats moved in and i only noticed what we had when my farthers shed smelt like urine. Never had them again after the garden next door was cleared of all vegetation. Regards 🇬🇧
Great idea to mark location of trap. Sometimes in a large area, I will use light chain to secure the trap. Many times I have found a rat in the trap , and the chain is taut. With the trap secure, I don't have to go looking for it.
I had a street behind mine get 4 new houses built in what had just been a large wooded field and ever since them my cats have been catching a lot of displaced rodents coming on my property
Love those VICTOR 'M26' Rat traps those ones have the yellow plastic bait retainer which the wire catch it located to, thus you can set same on a hair trigger and have more successful with same rather than their older models even caught young mice on same being so sensitive... great Idea with those trap location market Flags, Great Upload...
Dave i noticed you guys sanatize even under a crawl space like spraying the enzymes is there a specific reason for that or are you guys going above and beyond here
Great question! It’s best to remove the pheromones to help with attracting rats back in. Not really a big issue if everything is sealed up properly, but just a added benefit to get rid of bacteria too.
I was JUST thinking about you guys and if you posted a new video and here it is! 🥳 🎊 Was feeling pretty crappy today but you guys cheer me up. I enjoy learning from you guys. Thank you!
The sewer rat i had pulled down 12 ft of insulation. The worst part about that is i live in canada , it was febuary, average temperature is about a high of -17
Greetings from the UK…your videos are both informative and entertaining. You should do an international episode like here one day! I wanted to ask…what happens to the rats you catch alive…are they euthanised or do you release them?
Please tell me you are in Lancaster County, PA or can get here! So desperately need this type of service! Pest control companies out here are just not helpful and it feels like I’m throwing money away. Help me!!
Hey twins I have big promblem we moved to 25 bragaw ave and there mice every were we tired traps nothing working u be a life savor please get rid of mice please help
how you get rid of mice/rat urine smell out the house if you never needed to open up walls ? i see you guys spray your solution to disinfect inside the walls but if no walls were need to be opened what do you do?
@@TwinHomeExperts no good...they could of been anywhere in the house....we subposed to open up every wall??? ......isnt there like a fogger thing you can use that'll get inside walls? has to be a easier way!!!
@@johnny0253 we use our purocleanze that off gases into the air and attacks odors too. It all depends on the situation. This is probably what your talking about.
Had the same problem in a house. Had to find the nest and entry points. Made holes in walls in suspect areas using process of elimination. Found nest and possible entry points, sealed entry points with steel wool, removed nest and affected insulation, treated with nature's miracles, patch and painted holes no smell now. It was quite the process and seemed impossible at first to figure out. Start with process of elimination. Happy fixing
I would like to know how to keep them away from going in under the porch. I covered around it with woods and metals but they still figured out how to go in and out. It’s my in laws’s house and my wife and I started living there. The rats are trying to taking over the house but I started doing something to get them out. So far I get them out of the garage and inside the house, but they are in the backyard now and chicken coop. Pls help us before they take over our house
Hello, we have some rodent dust you can spread around the outer perimeter. Send us a email at support@twinhomeexperts.com. We also have other ideas for you.
Mice are my issue. I put traps down and did not catch them. Ugh! We've had them off and on since 2002. They never got on my counters, and now they are. I'm tired of the mice! 😱 Called pest control, $600 was estimated to put traps and bait down. They didn't see a point of entry outside.
Having to work in attics or any enclosed spaces that have been insulated with rockwool or whatever you call it in the US is an absolutely horrible job especially when its warm, very itchy and sweaty and hard to breathe. Yeah it's an awful job to do and to imagine that when you have rats running around aswell, there's plenty of shitty jobs in this world but that would be among the worst for me. I don't know how much guys charge to do this type of work but I'd understand if they don't come cheap, me and my mates used to hunt rats with our dogs and ferrets when we were kids, we loved it and was a lot of fun but rats are horrible little fuckers and do loads of damage anywhere they live. We used to go to a pig farm and it was shocking how many rats we used to find at that place.
Weird how places you decide to cut the wall open to get the rat has already been cut open and patched before as you can tell by the different color and texture. Things that make you go hmmmm
The rats are back at it again today I think they are still making a lot of noise and making more masses at the house they are still working on getting their favorite food to eat and getting some more drinks to stay hydrated with water to keep them all clean by taking a nice warm bath to keep their feet and they are very tired but I think they will be in your bed room if you don’t clean up your room in your house tonight for today please let me know?
WHERE is that *Inspection Camera?* I Know you have one - Use it. yes? I'd like to STOP Moles from tunneling Underground, and now Rats, plus the fact Armadillos may have Joined the Race. This, i believe is a very old 'runway' w\ Holes, now larger, causing even older Shrubs to suddenly DIE! Probing - it Drops.
North Americans need to change the way a house a build. all of the outside wall should be made from cement blocks, no rat is going to chew through cement blocks.
My Grandpa says back in his day when a farm house got to infested with rats the just filled the house with TNT and blew it up have you guys ever tried that technique before he says it works real good u can rebuild on same spot and the rats somehow know not to infest that house he gave a speech before the ignited " To the rats of this humble abode ur infestation has crossed the line and broken the 2015 Farm House Accord and you and ur arny have invaded a FHT "Farm House Territory" and an attack on any house in the alliance is deemed an attack on all and u have left us no choice 2 days ago on my orders a top secret mission was given the go and in tbminus 2min 145lbs of tnt is going to be ignited on my orders destroying the entire kingdom of ratington to all those who stay in salute you going down and fighting to the end and to those who run like cowards I beg u stay and BE A MAN
Damn tap in with me asap for that exclusion work......I can help and I know what I'm doing and that a C+.... Lol call me out I'll for sure shock the both of you☑️👍🙏
That wasn't a good idea!! There's not to many people that would allow you to cut in the wall. There's a easier way to solve that Rat problem.... That company probably does most of it's work in the Suburbs.... Work in N.Y.C... And grab a rat by its tail and see what happens....😂😂😂🤣

When you say rats leave grease marks, what do you mean exactly ? How do they cause grease marks ?
They create a sebum on there hair and body. This leaves a greasy trail
Rats in my area eat the bait without it flying. What's the best poison you recommend?
Try the baking soda mixed with peanut butter trick
@@chrisgianti8776 This worked for me too, except you powder it with cinnamon!
@@ehenyor what does that do?
@@pepecognito it just makes it more appealing for the rats, and the dust helps carry the scent.

For the love of God invest in a pellet gun to get those in sight but out of reach.
Do you any video on rats in the RV?
Not RVs, but mobile homes is the closest. Thanks for the great question.

I didnt think you could catch them by their tail. I figured they were more aggressive and likely to fight back and bite.
I saw the tail long before when u first said he saw it but lost it
