Rat Infestation

Just the thought of rats will surely send shivers down the spine due to the threat they bring not just in our homes and businesses but also to our wellbeing.

Rats are well known to spread diseases, damage land and contaminate food and animal feed. If they can gain entry into your home 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 spread over 35 diseases including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia.

That’s the reason rat management is very crucial and there’s almost a dozen of deaths which are directly connected to rats transmitting diseases. Their presence poses huge threat not only for damage to properties but also 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 to a major issue whenever left unmanaged.

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:

Rodent droppings – normally found in concentrated areas as rats create around 40 droppings per night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered spindle shape and they can look the same as the enormous 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 adept climbers. You may hear they scurry under decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more likely to be identified with a grinding sound they make with their teeth known as bruxing.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave tail and foot mails in dusty, less-utilised zones. To know if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or powder along the little stretch of floor or to areas where you think they’re crawling and then check for new paths the following day.

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

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

Rats Nests & Burrows

Nests – rats can build their nests in any areas. Sometimes they also dig into the ground to make a burrow system. Either way, they do this to protect themselves from humans and animals, as well.

Burrows – sometimes, rats lived outdoors plus they create burrows for shelter, food storage and nesting. They dig out mostly in the event you’ve got a garden and create extensive burrow system.

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