Rat Infestation

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

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

Rat control is essential to keep us from several illnesses and germs. There are about a dozen of pervasive illnesses directly connected to rats. Around the globe, rats are known to disperse more than 35 illnesses that may infect both pets and individuals, including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia. The nearness of rats in establishments represent a real risk to human well-being. The disease threat alone is a justifiable cause for concern and for the execution of sound control procedures.

Rats can be very persistent and should they manage to gain access into your house or business premises they can spread these diseases, causing considerable 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 matter and be able to effectively control an infestation. Rats can breed rapidly 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 home or at 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 prevent human contact.

To make sure that you have a rat infestation, start looking for these signs below:

Rodent droppings – usually found in concentrated areas as rats create up to 40 droppings per night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered spindle shape and they can look the same as the great grain of rice

Scratching noises – Rats often move around in the dark and out of reach areas such as the attic, roof and in small cracks and holes in the house. They are agile climbers and can easily input into loft 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 (going for walks tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks in dusty, less-used areas of houses. Shining a flashlight at a very low angle should show tracks vividly. To identify if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a small stretch of floor or on areas where you think they crawl and you will find these tracks the next day.

Rub Marks – rats leave these marks on sheets and dividers where they go in and out of the premises. This is because of the poor vision. The marks are made up of oil and dirt that stuck on their bodies. When they crawl, they leave smears and dull blemishes on items and surfaces they run over and brush against. Seeing these imprints may indicate their presence.

Gnaw marks – rats continue gnawing on things made from wood and plastics to keep their teeth trimmed. This is because rats’ teeth grow continuously. You can find these gnawing marks on things and furniture and is one of the sure signs that they are present in the area.

Rats Nests & Burrows
