What to do when rodents are inside your building
This year we had the worst rodent issue ever. They were everywhere. Initially complained came from drive up units and now we are finding they got in to our inside units too. Our pest control has used every possible poison to keep them away. We spray bleach in front of the doors and have bait stations both outside and inside the hallways. We even placed some bait inside the units and found rodent's activity inside the locker. Is there a way to stop them from spreading further and hoping they don't reach the 2nd floor.

When we took over a site that had let it go for 5 years of nothing being done it took about 6 months of solid effort to clean up. That meant every customer who came in we were walking out to chat with and peak at their unit for food, if found the food has to go or they can go all together.
Every customer we talked with we asked to put glue traps in their units and the ones who understood it was to better the property would come every couple of days to check and let us know if they had any that needed to be removed.
We had to shut down an entire building and get every tenant to let us in, go through every single unit, block holes and clean until we found the tenant that brought them in. 65 units that time. Tenant had several cereal boxes stored and brought the rats in with their furniture.
The building had an opening along the top for ventilation that the rats could use to travel between units. We installed steel mesh to compartmentalize it.

WOW... just wow. People can justify almost anything with "stupid logic"
I can't tell you how many arguments I've had with people over what's allowed to be stored (and what people actually do store!)
