Rodents Are Not Just a Nuisance. They Are a Health and Safety Risk
A single rat or mouse sighting is rarely the full picture. Rodents are nocturnal, fast-breeding, and highly capable of staying hidden until an infestation is well established. By the time most property owners notice the signs, droppings, gnaw marks, scratching sounds in the walls or ceiling the problem is already significant. At Khera Care, our licensed pest control operators conduct a thorough inspection of your property to identify the species, locate nesting sites, assess the scale of the infestation, and determine how rodents are gaining access.
We then apply a targeted treatment programme using bait stations, trapping, and proofing measures designed to eliminate the current population and prevent re-entry. We serve residential homes, commercial kitchens, warehouses, offices, and industrial properties across Gauteng and surrounding provinces, providing honest assessments and effective solutions that address the root cause not just the symptoms.

Elimination Is Only Half the Job. Proofing Is the Other Half
Many rodent treatments fail in the long term because they focus entirely on eliminating the current population without addressing how the rodents are getting in. Rats and mice can squeeze through gaps as small as a two-cent coin, and they will return through the same entry points if those gaps remain open. At Khera Care, our inspection process specifically identifies cracks, gaps, broken vents, open drainage points, and other entry routes that rodents are using or could use to access your property. We eliminate the current infestation and provide you with a clear, practical proofing report so those access points can be sealed permanently.
All rodenticides and bait products used by Khera Care are registered with and approved by the relevant South African regulatory authorities. We place bait stations in strategic, tamper-resistant locations that are accessible to rodents but out of reach of children and pets. Our team will advise you on hygiene practices, food storage, and environmental factors that may be attracting rodents to your property because treatment works best when the conditions that encouraged the infestation in the first place are also addressed. If signs of activity persist after the initial treatment, we return at no additional call-out cost until the problem is fully resolved.
