There are a lot of house pests that can linger in your homes or office premises if a location is unsanitary and filthy. You might do the job of inviting the number one pest there’s… rats!

No one actually likes rats as they are thought of as a nuisance in both households and businesses. They linger in our premises scavenging for food and build nests to breed. Their presence equals to distress, sanitation risk and health threats.

That’s why, rat control is important for households and businesses to stop risk for property damages and as well to animal and human health. As we all know, every year, the death toll increases as lots of men and women 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.

If you suspect rat infestation, be sure to act upon it the soonest possible. Rats can breed fast and the more they stay longer in the area, the bigger is the risk for property damage and diseases.

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

As nocturnal creatures, rats are most active between dusk and dawn and usually hide from humans during the day. It is often easier to spot signs of a issue, rather than the actual pest.

Watch out for the accompanying signs mentioned below, to know if you’ve been infested with rodents:

Rat droppings – usually found in concentrated areas as rats create up to 40 droppings each night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered, spindle-shape and they can resemble a Large grain of rice

Scratching noises – think you might 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 adept climbers. You may hear they scurry under decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more likely to be identified by a grinding noise they make with their teeth called bruxing.

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 low angle should reveal tracks clearly. To establish when an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a little stretch of floor near the footprints and await new tracks the next day.

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

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 that they are present in the area.

Rats Nests & Burrows

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

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