Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

Scratching noises – think you might have rats on your roof? Black rats (also known as the roof rat) are agile climbers and can easily get 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 with a grinding sound they make with their teeth known as bruxing.

Grease and dirt on their bodies leave smudges and dark marks on both objects and surfaces they brush against. These marks may indicate rodent activity, but as smears may remain for a long period of time, they’re not a superior indicator of an active infestation.

Gnaw marks – rats keep on gnawing on things made from plastics and wood to keep their teeth trimmed. This is because rats’ teeth grow continuously. You can find these gnawing marks on things and furniture and is one of the sure signs that they are present in the area.
