Tired of Your Rodent Control Provider Not Solving the Problem?
Not everyone understands how to solve rat problems. Most companies set traps and move on — but if the entry points aren't sealed, the rats just keep coming back. We specialize in finding and closing every way in, so the problem gets solved once and for all.
Know Your Enemy.
Memphis homes deal with two very different rats — and solving the problem starts with knowing which one you have.
Roof Rats
Rattus rattus
The most common rat in Memphis. Sleek, agile climbers that nest high — in attics, soffits, and along rooflines. They enter through gaps near the roofline, vents, and overhanging trees. If you hear scratching above your ceiling at night, this is almost certainly your culprit.
Warning Signs
- Scratching sounds in attic or ceiling
- Droppings near rafters or insulation
- Gnaw marks on wood and wiring
- Grease trails along beams and joists
Norway Rats
Rattus norvegicus
Larger and stockier than roof rats, Norway rats burrow and stay low — under slabs, in crawlspaces, and along foundations. Less common in Memphis attics but a serious problem when they establish a colony under your home. They enter through foundation vents, utility penetrations, and gaps at ground level.
Warning Signs
- Burrows along foundation or under slabs
- Droppings near floor level or in crawlspace
- Gnaw marks on pipes and lower wall framing
- Greasy rub marks along baseboards
Both species require the same solution: remove the animals, then permanently seal every entry point. The difference is where we focus the inspection.

Removing rats is only half the job. We seal every entry point so they can't come back — that's what sets us apart.
Roof Rat Removal
Roof rats in your attic, walls, or crawlspace. We locate every animal and remove them completely before the proofing begins.
Rodent Proofing
Our specialty. We inspect your entire home and permanently seal every gap, crack, and opening rats use to get inside — guaranteed.

Rats leave behind droppings, urine, and nesting material. We clean and sanitize your attic so it's safe for your family.
Ongoing Prevention
Scheduled inspections to catch new vulnerabilities before rats find them. Long-term protection, year-round peace of mind.

Any company can set a trap. We go further — sealing your home from the foundation to the roofline so rats have nowhere to get in. That's our specialty, and that's why our results last.

Memphis Homeowners Don't Hold Back.
Real results from real neighbors. No scripts, no incentives — just what happened.
“I had three other companies out before I called Roof Rat Solutions. Every single one set traps, took my money, and the rats came back within weeks. These guys spent two hours going over every inch of my roofline and foundation, found seven entry points I never would have seen, and sealed every one of them. That was eight months ago. Not a sound since. I genuinely cannot recommend them enough — this is the only company that actually solved the problem.”
James R.
Collierville, TN
“Had a serious roof rat problem — they were in my attic for months. Roof Rat Solutions came out the next day, found every entry point, sealed everything up, and I haven't heard a single scratch since. Worth every penny.”
David M.
Germantown, TN
“These guys are the real deal. No upselling, no nonsense. They showed up on time, explained exactly what they were doing, and proofed the whole house. I've tried two other companies before — wish I'd called them first.”
Sandra K.
Bartlett, TN
“Fast, professional, and they actually stand behind their work. Had a follow-up issue and they came back out at no charge. That's how you run a business.”
Marcus T.
Cordova, TN
“I was skeptical because I'd been burned before, but they walked me through everything they found and showed me photos of every gap they sealed. Total transparency. My attic is clean, the rats are gone, and I finally feel like my house is mine again.”
Patricia W.
Memphis, TN
“Called them on a Tuesday, they were out Wednesday morning. The technician was thorough, professional, and didn't try to sell me anything I didn't need. Sealed the entry points, set a few traps as a precaution, and followed up a week later. Exactly what you want from a service company.”
Kevin L.
Lakeland, TN
“My neighbor recommended them after she had the same problem. Best referral I've ever gotten. They found a gap behind my AC unit I never would have noticed. Six months later, zero issues. These guys know what they're doing.”
