The merchant in Resident Evil 4 Remake has all manner of interesting items for sale, and he’s only too happy to hand them over for a price. Trading Spinels will get you some of his rarest stock, and he’ll hand over fistfuls of Spinels if you complete his requests.
One of the trickiest among these requests is More Pest Control, requiring you to hunt down three rats within the Castle area. The castle is vast and patrolled by dangerous foes, not especially conducive to going on a rat hunt. We’ll help you find the rats and complete the merchant’s mission with our Resident Evil 4 Remake guide.

Resident Evil 4 Remake – Rats In The Castle
The initial Pest Control Mission in Resident Evil 4 Remake is simple enough. The rats in chapter 2 are all located shortly after the start of the mission, and can even be knifed with quick reflexes before Leon recovers his gear.
More Pest Control is a different story, however. These rats are spread throughout a wider area of the sprawling castle. And unlike with blue medallion hunts, treasure maps aren’t going to help you out here.
It’s worth keeping an ear out for speaking and an eye on the floor wherever possible. Though they like to scurry around, the rats will often stay still, perfect for picking off with a single shot.

First Rat
The first rat required for More Pest Control can be located right after finding the request itself, in the hallway approaching the Dining Hall.
Second Rat
The second rat in the castle can be found just before reaching the armory. Check the suits of armor arrayed along the wall to see if the rat is hiding behind them.
Third Rat
The third and final castle rat is found in the hallway connecting the grand hall to the mausoleum.
With More Pest Control completed, be sure to visit the merchant and receive three Spinels for your trouble.
