Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

As nocturnal animals, rodents are most active between dusk and dawn and ordinarily escape individuals during the day. It is usually simpler to spot indications of an issue, instead of the real pest.

Watch out for the following signs below, as you may have the rats in your area:

Rat droppings – normally found in concentrated areas as rats create up to 40 droppings per night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered, spindle-shape and they can resemble a Large 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 suggest their presence. Brown rats on the other hand, are less skillful climbers. You may hear they scurry beneath 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 tail and foot mails in dusty, less-utilised zones. To know if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or powder along the tiny stretch of floor or to areas where you believe they’re crawling and then check for new paths the following day.

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

Damage – due to their long incisor, rats always gnaw on things mostly wood and plastic materials in order to trim their teeth.

Rats Nests & Burrows

Nests – rats can build their nests in any areas. Sometimes they also dig in the ground to produce a burrow system. Either way, they do this to protect themselves from people and animals, as well.

Burrows – rats like to hide in hidden places and they sometimes use shredded materials like paper and fabric to build their nests. Check out your garden for a pile of dirt as this can indicate that rats have built their burrows. You may also check the areas like attic, basement, below the furniture or appliances.
