12B Clean
At 12B Clean, we don’t shy away from anything—and I mean absolutely anything—when it comes to cleaning. Our three divisions are staffed by intelligent and highly trained people who know exactly what is expected of them.
The Masters
It’s unthinkable, isn’t it? The sound of scurrying and gnawing in the night, the pungent smell of droppings, the risk that they might spread disease, and the possibility that they could cause a short circuit by gnawing through electrical cables.
Rats are difficult to control, and many households and businesses in the Netherlands are plagued by them. A standard pest control company will visit your property and set out electric traps or rat cages. In the best-case scenario, they’ll also install barriers. They’ll then investigate where the rats might be gaining access to your basement or crawl space and seal any holes.
But who do you think has to clean up the nests and mess they leave behind? That’s right, you. And coming into contact with feces or areas where rats have been can lead to the transmission of parasites, bacteria, and diseases—such as Weil’s disease. If you become infected, it can have a major impact on your health and may require treatment with medication or even hospitalization.
At 12BClean, we can help in two ways. If you want to get rid of rats on your own, we’ll put together a do-it-yourself kit for you. That kit always includes advice on:
Would you rather outsource this dirty work? Then we’ll come by and give you a quote. Every situation is different. For example, in cramped crawl spaces, we always bring an oxygen meter. By assessing the situation first, we know exactly what we need to get the job done. And if things don’t go as planned? The quoted price will still apply.
Agree with the price? Then we’ll chase the rats away (sometimes literally!) and clean up nesting material and other debris (such as damaged insulation) and dispose of the waste. We’ll also check that all holes are sealed and install barriers if necessary. If the rats have already gotten into your home, we’ll also provide electric traps or rat cages.
Rats reproduce incredibly quickly. Don't wait too long, or the situation will get out of hand, or they'll build a nest at your neighbors' house.
