Rat Infestation

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

Rats are known to spread diseases, harm property and contaminate food and animal feed. In the event that they enter your home, they can even present other unwelcome parasites like insects, lice and ticks.

That is why, rat control is important for households and companies to prevent risk for property damages and as well to animal and human health. As we all know, every year, the death toll increases as many 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.

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.

Acting upon the first sign of a suspected problem can help drastically reduce the amount of time required to effectively control an infestation. Rats are able to breed quickly and have the potential to develop into a serious problem if left unmanaged.

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

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

To make sure that you have rat infestations, watch out for these signs below:

Rat droppings – usually found in concentrated zones as rats create around 40 droppings for every night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered, spindle-shaped and they can take after a huge grain of rice

Scratching noises – Rats often move around in the dark and out of reach areas such as the loft, roof and in small cracks and holes in the house. They are agile climbers and can easily input into attic spaces and upper floors of the buildings. When they move, they produce scratching noises. Sometimes, you may also hear grinding noises this is because they gnaw on wood or plastics.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints – rats leave tail and foot marks that are sometimes tough to identify. If you can gently dust on some flour to areas that you suspect they are nesting and crawling, for sure you will see their prints.

Rub Marks – rats use established paths along skirting boards and walls because of their poor eyesight. Grease and dirt in their bodies leave smudges and dark marks on both objects and surfaces they brush against. These marks may indicate rodent activity, but as smears can remain for a long period of time, they’re not a superior indicator of an active infestation.

Damages – rats have teeth that develop and grow over time. They have to chew on wood and plastic to keep them trim.

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 humans and animals, as well.

Burrows – brown rats are notable for burrowing and exhuming wide tube frameworks for nests, food storage and settling. Search for tunnels in manure piles, under decking garages, or in carports.

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