There are a lot of house pests that can linger in your homes or workplace premises if a place is unsanitary and dirty. You might do the job of inviting the number one pest there is… rats!

No one really likes rats as they are considered to be a nuisance in both families and companies. They linger in our premises scavenging for food and build nests to breed. Their presence equals to discomfort, sanitation risk and health threats.

Rodent control is important to protect us from damages and in addition to health risks. Around the planet, rodents are known to disperse more than 35 illnesses that could affect individuals 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 valid reason for concern and for the implementation of sound control procedures.

Rats can be very persistent and if they manage to get 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 present tremendous risk, particularly since those areas are seen by children and pets.

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 to a major issue whenever left unmanaged.

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

Rats are adaptable creatures and they can reside anywhere in your house or in any building. You have probably heard individuals that there are rats in the attic, cellar, in between the walls or in old furniture. Since technically they are nocturnal creatures, rats are heard squeaking and running around. But during the day, they hide out of sight to avoid human contact.

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

Rat droppings – usually found in concentrated zones as rats produce up to 40 droppings for every night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered, spindle-shaped and they can take after a enormous 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 get access into attic 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 inclined to be identified by a grinding sound they make with their teeth known as bruxing.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks in dusty, less-used areas of buildings. Shining a strong flashlight at a low angle should show tracks clearly. To establish if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a small stretch of floor near the footprints and check for fresh tracks the next day.

Smear marks – because rats can go in and from any areas in the home or building, they frequently leave rub marks or smear marks which are made from grease and their fur. You can find these smudges left on furniture or walls that comes with unpleasant odor.

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

Rats Nests & Burrows

Homes – rats construct nests in hot, shrouded places using destroyed material, for instance, paper and textures. Homes will regularly contain young rats and are normally found near a sustenance source. Check behind and beneath machines, for example, fridges and coolers in or close to your kitchen.

Burrows – brown rats are notable for burrowing and unearthing wide tube frameworks for shelter, food stockpiling and settling. Look for tunnels in fertilizer piles, under decking or gardens, or in carports.
