Best Way to get rid of Pack Rats

The best way to control pack rat infestations is to remove ideal conditions for nesting and feeding.
Seal any holes through walls, pipes, attics, and ceiling with steel wool and patching materials from the inside and outside.
Remove all potential nesting locations for rats around your home such as leaf piles, excessive mulch, compost piles, unused vehicles, cardboard boxes, and piles of unwanted items.
Trim dense trees and vegetation, and climbers leading up to the roof and attic.
Remove all food remains after cooking and put them in tight fitting bins and garbage containers. Clean all counters and place all leftovers in your refrigerator.
Dry all surfaces and leaks in taps and pipes because they provide a water source for rats.
Remove other sources of food such as bird feeders until you can control the rodents.
Install door sweeps and weather-stripping around all doors and windows.

Final Thoughts
Pack rats live in the wild and only invade human homes to look for food and nesting materials. Rodenticides and poisonous rat trap baits increase pack rat infestations and kill non-target animals. Here, we discussed the best pack rat baits, which are fruits, nuts, seeds, and human food. Snap traps and glue traps are a safe and effective way to control pack rats. Also, you should remember that removing food and shelter for pack rats reduces infestations.
