Rat Infestation

Nobody likes to see pests wandering and crawling all over their homes. Just the thought of it already sends chills down the spine. Eew. imagine seeing them while you watch your favorite romantic flick or as you enjoy your day off from work. There are a lot of house pests that can linger in your homes or office premises if a place is unsanitary and filthy. You might do the job of inviting the number one pest there is… rats!

Rodents are known to spread illnesses, harm property and contaminate food, water and sanitation. In the event that they can enter your house or business territory, they can present other unwelcome parasites such as bugs, lice and ticks.

That’s why, rat management is important for households and businesses to stop risk for property damages and as well to animal and human health. As we all know, every year, the death toll increases as many men and women 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.

Rats are persistently aggressive rodents that once they gain access into homes and building premises, they feed on food they find, build their nest, breed and spread diseases. With this, they are considerably causing damage to property and contamination and items of food, water and surroundings.

If you suspect rat infestation, be sure to act upon it the soonest possible. Rats can breed quickly and the more they stay longer in the region, the bigger is the risk for property damage and diseases.

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 accompanying signs mentioned below, to know if you have been infested with rodents:

Rat droppings – these are rat feces and are usually found in concentrated regions. Rats defecate around 40 droppings at night, their droppings are usually dark brown in colour 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 gain 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 adept climbers. You may hear they scurry beneath decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more likely to be identified by a grinding noise 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 when an infestation is active, scatter fine bread or talc along a small stretch of floor near the footprints and check for fresh tracks the next day.

Rub Marks – rats use established paths 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 good gauge of an active infestation.

Damage – because of their long incisor, rats constantly gnaw on things mostly wood and plastic materials in order to trim their teeth.

Rats Nests & Burrows

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

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

If you have spotted signs of rat infestations, it’s 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.
