How to book

Through the enquiry form only

We offer full-cycle rodent control in Riga — from a single treatment in a flat to regular servicing of premises with control points.

All enquiries come through the form, and we reply within 5 minutes.

One-off treatment

Suited to flats and private houses where the problem has only just been noticed. It includes an inspection, placement and a repeat check.

Regular servicing

Suited to warehouses, production sites, restaurants and shops. Periodic checks, monitoring of control points, replacement of used products and a written record of the work carried out.

Emergency callouts

We work around the clock. If rodent activity calls for quick action — in a restaurant or a food business, for instance — we take the enquiry at any time.

How the service begins: from the form to the appointment

It all starts with a completed form on the website. We prepare a reply within 5 minutes — at night and at weekends too, because the controller works around the clock. That first reply does not usually carry a final price straight away, but it does carry two or three clarifying questions: what type of property it is, how large the floor area is, and where the rodents have been seen. Those questions are not a formality. A mouse in a kitchen cupboard and a rat in the pallets of a warehouse call for a different product, a different type of control point and a different amount of time on site. Once the picture is clear, we offer a specific appointment window. For a flat in Riga that is usually the same or the next day; for commercial premises it is fitted around the trading hours. In urgent cases a specialist sets out straight away, and that does not change the price: the minimum callout charge stays at €40 whatever the hour.

What happens on the first visit, step by step

The first visit to a typical flat takes about an hour; to commercial premises, from two to four. To begin with the specialist places nothing: first comes the inspection. We look for droppings, chewed edges on food packaging, greasy smears along walls and holes around risers, ventilation shafts and cable entries. These traces show where the rodents move — and the control points go on those routes, not in the middle of the room. The second stage is the choice of product and the installation of the points. In a flat these are usually tamper-resistant containers under the sink, behind the cooker and by the riser; in a production site or a warehouse, marked bait stations around the perimeter and by the entrances. The third stage is the conversation: the specialist shows you what was found and says which places need sealing so the problem does not come back.

What the client receives after the treatment

Three things remain at the property after the work. First — the control points that have been placed, with a clear description of where they are, so that staff or residents know where they sit and why they must not be moved. Second — a written record of the work carried out, setting down the date of the inspection, the level of rodent activity found, the type of product used and the number of points. For commercial premises this document is genuinely useful: it can be shown to a landlord, at an internal audit or at an inspection as a description of what was done at the property and when. Third — specific recommendations for sealing up. They are usually entirely practical: mortar up the gap around a water pipe, fit mesh over a ventilation opening, move the waste bin further from the wall, replace a damaged seal on a basement door. Without that work, any treatment is only buying time.

How the plan differs for a flat, a private house and commercial premises

In a flat the work is concentrated and quick, because the problem almost always comes from the communal parts — the basement, the waste room or the risers in the stairwell. The price here is €40–80 depending on the number of rooms, and one treatment plus one check is often enough. In a private house, where the price is €90–110, the treatment is not confined to the interior: the perimeter of the foundations, the basement, the plant room, the log store and the compost area all have to be checked. Control points also go outside, so that rodents are intercepted before they get in. In commercial premises, where the price starts from €70, the logic changes completely — a one-off treatment is only the starting point. In a warehouse, a production site or a restaurant the important thing is a permanent scheme of control points and regular monitoring, because the flow of goods and the volume of waste create a continuous attraction.

What regular servicing includes

Regular servicing is not simply more frequent bait replacement. At every visit the specialist walks round all the control points that have been placed and records how much product has been consumed at each. Those figures are the most important information in the whole process: if consumption is rising at one particular entrance, it means a new route, and an additional point or structural sealing is needed there. Product that has been consumed or damaged by moisture is replaced, and damaged containers are swapped out. At the same time we check whether points have been moved, blocked in by goods or ended up in a zone where they should not be. After each visit we prepare a written record of the work carried out, so over time a history of the property builds up with a visible trend. At food businesses in Riga that rhythm of visits is usually once a month; at warehouses, once every two months.

One-off treatment or a regular contract: how to choose

The choice is determined not by budget but by the character of the property. A one-off treatment is right when the problem is new, localised and has an understandable cause — a wall opened up during renovation, a damaged basement hatch, a treatment carried out in a neighbour's flat that has moved the rodents on. In cases like these, once the cause is sealed, the likelihood of recurrence is low. Regular servicing is needed where the attraction does not go away: a food production site, a restaurant kitchen, a warehouse holding grain or animal feed, the service floors of a shopping centre. There rodents are not eliminated once and for all — a state is maintained in which they do not establish themselves at the property. A practical rule of thumb: if rodents have been seen more than once in the past year, or the property has a constant flow of food, a one-off treatment will only postpone the problem.

How we plan the work around a business's trading hours

No shop wants to see a specialist with bait containers in front of its customers, and no kitchen can stop at lunchtime. So at commercial premises we fit the timing of the work to the rhythm of the property. In restaurants and cafés in Riga the treatment usually takes place after closing or early in the morning before deliveries arrive. In retail premises — before opening or late in the evening. In production sites working shifts we pick the break between shifts, or a day off when the line is idle. In warehouses the most convenient time is often Saturday morning, when the movement of goods is lighter and all the racking is accessible. Night and weekend work does not raise the price — it is part of round-the-clock availability. The only condition is agreeing in good time and having access to the service rooms, the basement and the waste area, because that is where the most important control points are.
