Crawl space rat infestations are one of the most common rodent problems in Seattle and King County homes. Dark, damp, and rarely visited, crawl spaces create the perfect nesting environment for rats. If left untreated, infestations spread quickly into living areas, insulation, HVAC systems, and electrical wiring.
At AMPM Exterminators, we provide professional crawl space rat removal and prevention for homes and businesses across Seattle and Eastside cities like Sammamish, Issaquah, Redmond, Kirkland, and Bellevue.
Signs of Rats in Crawl Spaces
- Scratching or scurrying noises under floors, especially at night
- Rat droppings or urine odors near floorboards and vents
- Chewed insulation, wires, or stored items
- Nesting debris such as shredded paper, cloth, or insulation
If you notice these signs, your crawl space may already host a growing colony.
Why Crawl Spaces Attract Rats
Crawl spaces provide rodents with warmth, shelter, and direct access to walls, ductwork, and flooring. Once inside, they cause:
- Structural Damage – Rats gnaw through wood, wires, and pipes.
- Health Risks – Urine and droppings spread disease.
- Energy Loss – Destroyed insulation drives up heating and cooling costs.
Eastside homes with large crawl spaces or unfinished basements are especially vulnerable.
