Is this instead of a pest controller?

Alongside one. They deal with the rats that are there, we stop more arriving. One without the other tends not to hold.

Does the valve affect the drain?

No. It opens for waste flowing out and closes behind it. The drain works exactly as it did.

Rats in Drains

Rats live in the sewer and get out through broken pipes and disused drains. Pest control deals with the ones already there; closing the way in is what stops more arriving.

How we do it

1

We deal with the hole

Otherwise you've moved the problem a few feet along.
