Scratching noises – think you might have rats on your roof? Black rats (also known as the roof rat) are agile climbers and can easily get access into loft spaces and upper floors of buildings.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave foot and tail mails in temperate, less-utilised zones. To know if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or powder along the little stretch of floor or to areas where you believe they are crawling and then check for new paths the following day.

Rub Marks – rats use based 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 may stay for a long time period, they’re not a good gauge 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.
