Rat Infestation

The notion of rat Infestation makes everyone of us cringe. Generally, rats do not have a reputation as cuddly and cute pets as the fact that they are harbingers of diseases. Their existence makes us puke in disgust and may be unsettling.

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

Rat control is important to avoid a number of serious ailments, which rats are known to transmit in a variety of means. There are almost a dozen prevalent diseases directly connected to rats. Around the world, rats are known to spread over 35 diseases that can infect both pets and people, 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 implementation of sound control processes.

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.

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.

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

As nocturnal animals, rodents are most active between dusk and dawn and ordinarily escape individuals during the day. It is usually easier to spot signs of an issue, instead of the real pest.

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

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 could 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 suggest 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 with a grinding noise they make with their teeth known as bruxing.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

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

Rub Marks – these are mainly oily oil and dirt left on regions that rats crawl along. These smudges sometimes have rat furs when rats move 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 – due to their long incisor, rats constantly gnaw on things mostly plastic and wood materials in order to trim their teeth.

Rats Nests & Burrows

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

Burrows – sometimes, rats lived outdoors and they create burrows for shelter, food storage and nesting. They dig out mostly if you have a garden and create extensive burrow system.

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