Rat Infestation

No one likes to see pests wandering and crawling all over their houses. Just the thought of it already sends chills down the spine. Eew. imagine seeing them while you watch your favourite romantic flick or as you enjoy your day off from work. There are plenty of house pests that can linger in your homes or office premises if a location is unsanitary and dirty. You may do the job of inviting the number one pest there’s… rats!

No one actually likes rats as they are considered to be a nuisance in both households and companies. They linger in our assumptions scavenging for food and build nests to breed. Their presence equals to discomfort, sanitation risk and health threats.

Rat control is important to avoid a number of serious ailments, which rats are known to transmit in a variety of means. There are almost a dozen prevalent diseases directly connected to rats. Around the world, rats are known to disperse over 35 diseases that can infect both people and pets, including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia. The presence of rats in establishments pose a serious threat to human health. The disease threat alone is a justifiable cause for concern and for the implementation of audio control procedures.

Rats are persistently aggressive rodents that once they gain access into homes and building premises, they feed on food they find, build their nest, breed and spread diseases. With this, they are considerably causing damage to property and items and contamination of food, water and environment.

Acting upon the first sign of a suspected problem can help drastically reduce the length of time required to effectively control an infestation. Rats can breed quickly and have the potential to develop into a critical issue if left unmanaged.

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

Rats are adaptable creatures and they can reside anywhere in your home or at any building. You have probably heard individuals that there are rats in the attic, cellar, in between the walls or in old furniture. Since technically they are nocturnal creatures, rats are heard squeaking and running around. But during the day, they hide from sight to prevent human contact.

Watch out for the accompanying signs below, as you may have rats in your location:

Rodent droppings – usually found in concentrated areas as rats produce around 40 droppings per night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered spindle shape and they can look the same as the great grain of rice

Scratching noises – think you could have rats on your roof? Black rats (also known as the roof rat) are agile climbers and can easily gain access into loft spaces and upper floors of buildings. The hearing scratching noises at night from above may indicate their presence. Brown rats on the other hand, are less skillful climbers. You may hear they scurry under decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more likely to be identified by a grinding noise they make with their teeth called bruxing.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks in dusty, less-used areas of buildings. Shining a strong flashlight at a very low angle should reveal tracks clearly. To establish if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a small stretch of floor near the footprints and await fresh tracks the next day.

Rub Marks – rats use established paths along skirting boards and walls because of their poor eyesight. Grease and dirt on their bodies leave smudges and dark marks on both objects and surfaces they repeatedly brush against. These marks may indicate rodent activity, but as smears may stay for a long time period, they are not a good gauge of an active infestation.

Damages – rats have teeth that develop and grow over time. They must chew on wood and plastic to keep them trim.

Rats Nests & Burrows

Nests – rats build nests in hot, hidden places using shredded material such as newspaper and fabrics. Nests will often contain young rats and are often situated close to a food source. Check behind and beneath appliances, such as fridges and freezers in or near your kitchen.

Burrows – brown rats are notable for burrowing and exhuming broad tunnel frameworks for nests, food storage and settling. Look for tunnels in manure piles, under decking garages, or in carports.

Once you have spotted signs of rat infestations, it is best to get proficient therapy. Our certified local administration experts are backed by international wisdom and pest technology advancement that can enable you to dispose of those mischievous pests for good.
