Rat Infestation

The notion of rat Infestation makes us cringe. Generally, rats do not have a reputation as adorable and cuddly pets as the fact that they’re harbingers of diseases. Their presence makes us puke in disgust and can be unsettling.

No one actually likes rats as they are considered to be a nuisance in both families 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 an assortment of means. There are almost a dozen prevalent diseases directly linked to rats. Around the world, rats are known to spread 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 execution of sound control procedures.

Rats can be very persistent and if they manage to gain access into your house 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, especially since those areas are seen by children and pets.

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

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

As nocturnal animals, rats are most lively at dusk and dawn and typically hide out of sight from people and other animals for the duration of the day. It’s simply less difficult to spot indications of a problem, rather than the actual pest.

To be sure that you have a rat infestation, start looking for these signs below:

Rat droppings – these are rat feces and are usually found in concentrated areas. 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 might 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 skillful climbers. You may hear they scurry beneath decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more inclined to be identified with a grinding noise they make with their teeth known as bruxing.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave tail and foot 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 new tracks the following day.

Rub Marks – these are mainly oily oil and dirt left on areas that rats crawl along. These smudges sometimes have rat furs when rats proceed along the surfaces. When you see some, these can indicate their presence but isn’t a good gauge of an infestation, most of the time.

Damage – rats have teeth that develop continuously. They want to gnaw on wood and plastic to keep them trim.

Rats Nests & Burrows

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

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

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