Rat Infestation

No one likes to see pests wandering and crawling all over their houses. 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 plenty of house pests that can linger in your homes or workplace premises if a place is unsanitary and filthy. You may do the job of inviting the number one pest there is… rats!

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 present other unwelcome parasites like 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 many men and women 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.

Spotting an infestation as early as possible can resolve the issue 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

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, look out for the following signs below:

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

Scratching noises – Rats often move around in the dark and out of reach areas like the loft, roof and in small cracks and holes in the home. They are agile climbers and can easily enter 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 (running tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks in dusty, less-used areas of buildings. Shining a strong flashlight at a very low angle should show tracks clearly. To establish if an infestation is active, scatter fine bread or talc along a little stretch of floor near the footprints and check for new tracks the following day.

Rub Marks – rats leave these marks on sheets and dividers where they go in and out of the premises. This is because of their poor vision. The marks are made up of dirt and oil 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 plastics and wood 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 they are present in the area.

Rats Nests & Burrows

Nests – rats build nests in warm, hidden areas using shredded material like newspaper and fabrics. Nests will frequently contain young rats and are often situated close to a food source. Check behind and beneath appliances, such as fridges and freezers in or near your kitchen.

Burrows – brown rats are well known for digging and excavating extensive burrow systems for shelter, food storage and nesting. Look for burrows in compost heaps, under decking or garden sheds, or in garages.
