Rat Infestation

Just the thought of rats will certainly send shivers down the spine because of the threat they bring not only in our homes and businesses but also to our health.

Rats are well known to spread diseases, damage property and contaminate food and animal feed. If they can gain entry into your house or business area, they can introduce other unwelcome parasites such as fleas, lice and ticks.

That is why, rat management is important for households and businesses to stop risk for property damages and as well to human and animal health. As we all know, every year, the death toll increases as lots of people are killed by acquiring diseases coming from rat infestation. These creepy creatures are known to disperse over 35 diseases including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia.

That is why rat control is very crucial and there’s nearly a dozen of deaths that are directly connected to rats transmitting diseases. Their presence poses huge threat not only for harm to properties but as well to humans and animal health.

Spotting an infestation as early as possible can resolve the issue and be able to effectively control an infestation. Rats can breed quickly and can possibly form into a major issue whenever left unmanaged.

How To Identify Signs of Rats

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, as opposed to the actual pest.

Watch out for the corresponding signs below, as you might have rats in your location:

Rodent droppings – normally 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 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 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 sound they make with their teeth known as bruxing.

How To Identify Signs of Rats

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks from dusty, less-used areas of buildings. Shining a strong flashlight at a low angle should show tracks clearly. To establish when an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a small stretch of floor near the footprints and check for new tracks 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 repeatedly brush against. These marks may indicate rodent activity, but as smears may stay for a long period of time, they are not a superior gauge of an active infestation.

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

How To Identify Signs of Rats

Rats Nests & Burrows

Homes – rats construct nests in warm, shrouded places utilising destroyed material, by way of instance, paper and textures. Homes will regularly include young rats and are normally found near a sustenance source. Check behind and beneath machines, for instance, fridges and coolers in or near your kitchen.

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 backyard for a pile of dirt because this can indicate that rats have assembled their burrows. You may also check the areas like loft, basement, below the furniture or appliances.

Once you are sure that your property has been invaded by these rodents, it’s good to seek out the help of qualified rodent control professionals.

Great company, friendly and knowledgeable staff, and awesome results. Called Andrew and let him know what we were seeing. Andrew was wonderful, helped me determine what type of creepy crawlers we had in our home and was able to get someone out really quick. Adam came out to treat our apartment for cockroaches and from start to finish I was super impressed. Adam was friendly, answered all my questions, and gave me some insight and tips to help with our problem. Local Pest Control is a reliable and effective company who I won’t hesitate to call again!
