Rat Infestation

The notion of rat Infestation makes us cringe. Usually, rats do not have a reputation as cuddly and cute pets as the fact that they are harbingers of diseases. Their presence makes us puke in disgust and may be unsettling.

Rodents are known to spread illnesses, harm property and contaminate food, water and sanitation. In the event that they can enter your home or business territory, they can present other unwelcome parasites such as bugs, lice and ticks.

Rodent control is important to protect us from damages and as well as health risks. Around the planet, rodents are known to spread more than 35 illnesses that can affect people and pets, this includes plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia. The presence of rodents in foundations represents a real danger to human wellbeing. The health risk alone is a legitimate reason for concern and for the implementation of sound control procedures.

Rats can be very persistent and should they manage to gain access into your home or business premises they could spread these diseases, causing appreciable damage and contamination of food. Even rats in the garden and outside can also pose tremendous risk, particularly since those areas are seen by children and pets.

Suspecting a rat issue? Do not worry. Act on it immediately and get in touch with the nearest pest management experts.

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

As nocturnal creatures, rats are most active between dusk and dawn and usually hide from people during the day. It is often easier to spot signs of a problem, rather than the actual pest.

Watch out for the corresponding signs mentioned below, to know if you have been infested with rodents:

Rat droppings – these are rat feces and are usually found in concentrated regions. Rats defecate up to 40 droppings at night, their droppings are usually dark brown in color and almost look like grains 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 get access into attic 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 adept climbers. You may hear they scurry beneath decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more inclined to be identified by a grinding sound they make with their teeth known as bruxing.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints – rats leave tail and foot marks that are sometimes tough to identify. If you can lightly dust on some flour to areas that you suspect they are nesting and crawling, for sure you will see their prints.

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 repeatedly brush against. These marks may indicate rodent activity, but as smears can stay for a long period of time, they are not a superior indicator 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 can build their nests in any areas. Sometimes they also dig into the ground to produce a burrow system. Either way, they do this to protect themselves from humans and animals, as well.

Burrows – brown rats are well known for digging and excavating extensive burrow systems for shelter, food storage and nesting. Search for burrows in compost heaps, under decking or garden sheds, or in garages.

If you’ve spotted signs of rat infestations, it’s time to get professional treatment. Our qualified local service technicians are backed by global knowledge and innovation which can help you get rid of these naughty pests for good.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are my pets at home affected by the treatments you employ?

Your pet’s safety is extremely important to us. You may rest assured that any active component they come in contact with, whether it is still wet or through inhalation or ingesting the substance, is very small.

Does the spray pose problems to humans?

The spray we employ is typically employed in public areas such as schools and hospitals and causes no ill effects to humans.

What should I do if I accidentally touch any of the areas that have been spray?

It’s only a concern if the sprayed areas are still damp. If this occurs, clean with soap and lots of water as soon as you possibly can. After a brief period in time carrier tap water has gone out of the water and will not cause any harm to you when you come in contact with the area.
