The notion of rat Infestation makes us cringe. Usually, 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 can be unsettling.
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 like bugs, lice and ticks.
That is why, rat management is important for households and businesses to prevent risk for property damages and as well to human and animal 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 disperse over 35 diseases including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia.
Rats can be very persistent and if they manage to gain access into your house or business premises they could spread these diseases, causing considerable damage and contamination of food. Even rats in the garden and outside can also present tremendous risk, especially since those areas are visited by children and pets.
Suspecting a rat problem? Do not worry. Act on it immediately and get in contact with the nearest pest management experts.
As nocturnal animals, rodents are most active between dusk and dawn and ordinarily escape people during the day. It is usually simpler to spot signs of an issue, instead of the real pest.
To make sure that you have a rat infestation, start looking for these signs below:
Rodent droppings – usually found in concentrated areas as rats produce around 40 droppings per night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered spindle form and they can look the same as the great grain 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 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 skillful climbers. You may hear they scurry under decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more inclined to be identified with a grinding sound they make with their teeth known as bruxing.
Footprints (going for walks tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks in temperate, less-used regions of homes. 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 believe they crawl and you may find these tracks the following day.
Rub Marks – rats use established routes alongside skirting walls and boards due to their poor eyesight. They leave marks mixed with grease and grime on areas where they crawl. These marks might also suggest rat activity, however as smears may also remain for an extended period of time, they may be no more an excellent judge of a visible infestation.
Gnaw marks – rats continue gnawing on things made of 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.
Homes – rats construct nests in hot, shrouded places using destroyed material, for instance, paper and textures. Homes will regularly include young rats and are normally found near a sustenance source. Check behind and beneath machines, for instance, fridges and coolers in or near your kitchen.
Burrows – rats like to hide in hidden places and they sometimes use shredded materials such as paper and fabric to build their nests. Check out your backyard for a pile of dirt as this can indicate that rats have built their burrows. You may also check the areas like attic, basement, below the furniture or appliances.
If you’ve 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 get rid of these naughty pests for good.
Will the gel that you use on the inside of my cupboards cause any contamination to the food inside?
We apply the gel only to places within the cupboard where insects are found. This means it will only be applied to cracks, crevices, and hinges.
How often should I call on your services for treatments?
We would recommend that treatments are carried out once or twice a year depending on the environmental conditions.
I am about to have renovations on my property. At what stage of this process should I call on your services?
The best time to do this would be after the various tradespeople have completed their work and at least a couple of days before you move in.
